Alternative: ScreenNinja (cheaper I think, $20) http://getscreenninja.com/
An alternative I used to use when I wanted this feature: `while [ 1 ];do vardate=$(date +%d\-%m\-%Y\_%H.%M.%S); screencapture -t jpg -x ~/Desktop/project_name/$vardate.jpg; sleep 10; done`
ScreenNinja seems to also provide a number of features that would prob take a while to implement if you wanted them
30 bucks for a screenshot app... 3 bucks I can easily life with, and would instantly grab my wallet without thinking. 10 bucks or 20 bucks even if I would use this often. But 30 is quite steep IMHO

You can do this with cron and the mac screenshot cli. I have been for years. It’s the best way to fill in your time sheet.
I also made a small react app that shows thumbnails and supports zoom and splitting the time with export. Glad to push it to a repo if people want it.
$30 seems kinda high for what it does. You can do this with cron and the mac screenshot cli. I have been for years. It’s the best way to fill in your time sheet.

Came here expecting to see this as a top-level comment. Really not sure why someone (here on HN) would pay $30 rather than just write a simple script like this.
I could see paying $30 for the options/playback. I'm not sure if `screencapture` gets all the desktops or just the active one or what. Also the playback UI looks nice and is a much better way to check what you were doing and for how long than a directory of images would be. If it was a subscription services I'd be looking for alternatives but one-time purchase? $30 seems reasonable.

It's not a screenshot app.
The only thing feature I can see from the apps page is that you can play back the screenshots at whatever speed you want, which hardly warrants $30.
