Snapper: A New Tweak To Take And Manage Screenshots

Taking screenshots on your iPhone has been a good thing, but I believe that jailbreak can make taking screenshots from my device more better than before.. Thanks for Snapper, a new recently released jailbreak tweak that gives you the ability to take and manage screenshots in a better way… More details after the jump..

So what does Snapper do ?? The tweak simply allows you to manually draw screenshots using your finger. It’s a bit difficult to explain without actually seeing it in action, but it allows you to “cut out” screenshots and pin them on the screen as you go about your business on your iPhone.

Check out the tweak in action and you will understand how does it work:

Snapper can be enabled via an Activator gesture, so for example with double tap on home button you can simply start to draw a rectangular/Triangular shape or etc.. and the picture will be saved to camera roll as you’ve seen in the video above…

Once installing the tweak on your iPhone, go to the tweak’s setting menu, where you will find a section for assigning an Activator gesture. You must assign an Activator gesture for Snapper to work. I prefer to use the double tap on the status bar gesture, but you can use whatever feels best to you.

After the gesture is established, you can choose whether you’d like a shadow and/or border effect for your screenshots. In the screenshots on this post, I have both enabled, but again, this is something that will be up to your discretion.

If you want to try Snapper, you can find it for $0.99 on Cydia’s BigBoss repo. Please let me know what you think about the tweak in the comments down below.
