For all of those who I’ve spent countless hours trying to show why Jailbreaking gives you a far superior user experience, this is a perfect example.
Apple continues to slowly implement Jailbreak tweaks into iOS. No one seems to notice this, and Apple gets all the credit. Even though their implementation is almost always an inferior and clunky version of a JB tweak.
What started as Clipshot on iOS 7 and was carried on by Almpoum in subsequent JBs, this tweak would allow a variety of customizations to the screenshot function. Most efficient was rather than saving every screenshot, it would simply automatically copy it to the clipboard. No pop-up menus, prompts or anything. Since this is how most screenshots are used, as disposable references used in text conversations, this was brilliant.
Apple’s attempt at capturing this brilliance and solving the issue of dozens and eventually hundreds of completely useless image files in a user’s camera roll is so clunky and inefficient it is actually significantly WORSE than simply saving the file to the camera roll by default. Now rather than simply copying it to the clipboard, which is what most people do, they require you to go through multiple unnecessary steps and manually delete every single one. The gimmicky ”editing” features are virtually pointless. Why doesn’t Apple hire these brilliant developers to work for them rather than working against them?
