Mac users can now make their screen captures smarter now that the 'Tiny for Mac' app makes saving screenshots more convenient.
The app was developed by Nico Prananta and renames screen captures so that they are easier to find. Usually when a Mac takes a screenshot, the file is saved with a very vague and generic file name that provides little to no information on what the file actually is. Tiny for Mac replaces the basic title with information based on the front most window as well as the URL and page title. This app also exhibits a "Quick Look" feature, which provides a preview of the screen capture.
Requiring Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10, this app is available to download for free.
