NAMESHOT: PRESS KIT
https://nameshot.app/press/

IN ONE LINE

Nameshot is a Mac menu bar app that gives every new screenshot a proper name the moment you take it, on device using Apple Intelligence.

IN ONE PARAGRAPH

Your Desktop fills up with files called "Screenshot 2026-10-12 at 9.41.07 AM". Nameshot sits in the menu bar and, a second or two after you take a screenshot, gives it a name in plain words, like "Harbor Street Coffee Order" or "Passive-Aggressive Roommate Note". It reads each picture on device using Apple Intelligence, so nothing leaves your Mac: there's no account, no analytics, and the app has no permission to use the network at all. Undo is one click, and when you type a better name, Nameshot learns how you like things named. Tidy Up names a whole folder of old screenshots in one go, and any image or folder dropped on the little face in the menu bar gets named too. Nameshot is a free download with a 7-day free trial; Nameshot Pro is a one-time purchase, $4.99 at launch, then $9.99. It needs a Mac with Apple silicon and macOS 27.

GOOD TO KNOW

Doesn't macOS 27 already do this?
macOS 27's Finder suggests a name when you go to rename a file yourself, one file at a time. Nameshot names every screenshot the moment you take it, without being asked, and works through the ones already on your Desktop.

Does it really work offline?
Nameshot has no network entitlement! That means macOS doesn't even let it connect to the internet. (Purchases are checked by macOS's own App Store service, as for any app.) To see for yourself: turn off Wi-Fi and take a screenshot, and it's named just the same. Or run this in Terminal; there's no com.apple.security.network.client in what it lists:

  codesign -d --entitlements - /Applications/Nameshot.app
