Phone Screenshot Libraries Are Unsearchable Graveyards of Lost Information

Smartphone users accumulate thousands of screenshots — receipts, recipes, confirmations, saved articles — that become impossible to find because they are stored as opaque image files with meaningless filenames. Native gallery search cannot read screenshot content, and no mainstream tool automatically categorizes or indexes what is inside each image. Information captured by screenshot is effectively lost.
