SnapBud is a desktop pet that catches your screenshots into a temporary vault instead of letting them pile up on your desktop. A small retro CRT-robot mascot shows you how many it's holding - set a "Wanish" timer (an hour, a day, your call) and it permanently deletes them for you when time's up. No manual sorting, no dragging screenshots to a folder you'll never open again. Just screenshot, use it, and let SnapBud wanish it. Built for Mac and Windows, free to download, no account required.
