This tweak disables the bothersome screenshot banners in several apps
A developing trend inside of App Store apps is to display an in-house notification banner anytime you snap a screenshot from within those apps. Although they’re supposed to make sharing things more accessible, some people don’t find the provided sharing options useful.
A whole host of recent jailbreak tweaks responded to these banners in apps like Instagram and Spotify, but a new free release called KillinAppsScreenshot by iOS developer CydiaGeek strives to become the ultimate all-in-one solution to disable these annoying banners in every one of your apps.

NoSpotiScreenShot disables the bothersome screenshot-sharing banner in the Spotify app
Aside from Apple Music, Spotify is one of the most popular ways to stream music on an iPhone or iPad. In fact, Spotify is my preferred way to listen to music altogether. Still, I acknowledge that the app's obtrusive banner for sharing any screenshots you take tends to get bothersome.

How to quickly find all screenshots on your Mac
By default, screenshots you take on your Mac end up on the desktop. But can easily set them to be saved to any custom folder, such as Downloads.
If you're like me, you probably move some screenshots (like those of specific apps) to your project folders. While that helps with organization, it makes finding all the screenshots saved on your Mac harder than it needs to be.
In this tutorial, we'll use a few little-known tricks to help you quickly locate all of the screenshots you've taken on your Mac, no matter how deep they might be buried.
How to wirelessly connect devices to Xcode and Quicktime

ScreenshotXI brings iOS 11-like screenshot functions to jailbroken devices
If you've forgotten about all the new features that come bundled with the iOS 11 update launching this Fall, then let this serve as a small reminder that it includes significant upgrades to screenshot handling on your iPhone or iPad. Waiting another month isn’t a big deal for stock device users, but upgrading isn't an accessible option for jailbreakers.
If you’re jailbroken and want the same supercharged screenshot features that come with iOS 11 without upgrading this Fall, you can use a new jailbreak tweak dubbed ScreenshotXI by iOS developer DGh0st to get them right away.
Prevent storage-filling Lock screen screenshot pranks with LSScreenshotLimit
First world problems differ from one person to the next, but having been in a situation before where someone pranked me by grabbing my iPhone and taking several screenshots of the Lock screen to fill up my storage space, I can’t recommend a new free jailbreak tweak called LSScreenshotLimit by iOS developer DGh0st enough.
This tweak helps you avoid issues like the one I described by limiting the number of screenshots that can be taken from the Lock screen at one time. In doing so, you'll also dodge unnecessary frustration and urges to strangle whoever filled your Camera Roll with repetitive screenshots.
