What does bringing it to the front mean in this context? If I've already located the photo I want, I can usually do what I need with it. The problem is finding it to start with.
I'm assuming it's an apple thing, where it's stupidly difficult to get the image/file you want into the application that you want to work with it
or at least that's my experience as a non-apple user trying to use my goddamn iPad
Nah, I do it on my (android) phone. Usual case is that I see something browsing on mobile that I want to research more of on my proper desktop. So I take a quick screenshot so that I remember when I get home. Then I dont remember. Then I screenshot the screenshot the next time I'm scrolling through my gallery so that I remember. Then I dont remember...
So the screenshot is a reminder because when you're scrolling through recent photos you might happen to see it? Isn't that kind of like setting an alarm clock that will only go off 50% of the time?
