How to measure your screenshot mess
Find out how many screenshots you have and how much space they use.
Pick your folder
Click “Scan a folder” and select where your screenshots live — Desktop and Downloads are the usual suspects on a Mac.
Let it count
The browser reads file names, sizes, and dates locally. Nothing is uploaded; image contents are never even opened.
Face the numbers
See your total count, gigabytes used, oldest screenshot, and your chaos score.
Share the damage
Download your score card and share it — then maybe let an app clean this up for you.
What this tool does
- Reads your screenshots folder locally — file contents are never uploaded
- Counts images, sums the gigabytes, finds your oldest screenshot
- Computes your “screenshot chaos score” with a shareable card
- Works with any folder: Desktop, Downloads, or a dedicated screenshots dir
- Manual mode if you’d rather just type a rough count
Diagnosed. Now treat it.
Pizazoo automatically organizes the mess you just measured — every screenshot categorized, OCR-searchable, and private. Free to try on macOS.
Frequently asked questions
Does this upload my files?
No. The folder picker runs in your browser and we only read file metadata (name, size, date) locally to compute totals. Image contents are never read or transmitted.
What counts as a screenshot?
Every image file in the folder is counted, and files whose names match common screenshot patterns (“Screenshot…”, “CleanShot…”, “SCR-…”) are also broken out separately.
My screenshots are spread everywhere. Now what?
That is the disease this calculator diagnoses. Pizazoo for macOS watches your screenshot locations, auto-categorizes everything with on-device AI, and makes it all searchable by the text inside.
Why is the scan size smaller than Finder reports?
The calculator only counts image files. Finder folder sizes include videos, PDFs, and other documents living in the same folder.
