All iPhone Screenshot Shortcuts (Including Hidden Ones)

Building a Screenshot → Capture Workflow

The standard screenshot shortcut (Side + Volume Up on Face ID iPhones) is already fast. The bottleneck is what happens after: screenshot lands in Camera Roll, requires manual retrieval later.

Better shortcut: immediately after screenshotting, tap the thumbnail preview → Share → Nemos. Add context. Total time: 15 seconds. The capture is now searchable by content.

You can automate this with Shortcuts: "When screenshot is taken → show share sheet with Nemos pre-selected." This surfaces the Share Sheet automatically on every screenshot without building a new habit.

Back Tap shortcut (Settings → Accessibility → Touch → Back Tap): configure double-tap back of iPhone to trigger Nemos. Useful for capturing the current screen without pressing any buttons — the double-tap screenshots and opens Nemos simultaneously via a Shortcut.

Where Nemos fits

Nemos is a private second brain for iPhone that solves the "I saved it somewhere" problem. Every screenshot, voice memo, PDF, and link you save gets OCR'd, transcribed, and indexed on-device using Apple Foundation Models. Find anything by typing one word. Free. Apple-only. Free on the App Store.
