# Devs: how many stack traces and error screenshots are buried in your Camera roll/Gallery right now?

## Summary

A developer shares a relatable problem of accumulating unsearchable screenshots in their camera roll — error stack traces, terminal output, UI bugs, and docs snippets — and mentions building a prototype to solve it. They're seeking honest community feedback on whether this is a real pain point worth pursuing further, asking how others currently manage such screenshots and whether a dedicated tool would fit into their workflow.

## Content

**Mine was a disaster. Random screenshots of**:

- Error stack traces I meant to fix "later"
- Terminal output I needed to reference
- UI bugs I screenshots mid-debug
- Stack Overflow / docs snippets
- Figma/design refs from PRs


**All unsearchable, all unsorted, scrolling forever to find the one I need.**


I built a working prototype that solves this but before I go further,** I want honest feedback on the idea itself, not just "nice work" comments.**

- Is this an actual problem for you, or something you've never really thought about?
- How do you currently deal with it — folders, search, nothing, just scroll and suffer?
- Would something like this genuinely fit into your workflow, or does it feel unnecessary?


**Brutal feedback welcome** including "I wouldn't use this and here's why." Trying to figure out if this is worth pushing further before I sink more time into it.
