App designed to turn screenshots into actions
💡 Ever had to manually type out a phone number from a screenshot? Or worse — switch between your photo gallery and WhatsApp just to write someone a message? That frustration led me to build something simple but powerful.
🚀 Meet Unscanny – an app designed to turn screenshots into actions.
It all started when I kept seeing local businesses post their phone numbers on Instagram stories. No clickable links, just plain numbers. I had to screenshot, open my phone app, and type the number manually. Even worse, some said “DM us on WhatsApp or Telegram” — again, no links, just text.
So I built Unscanny, an app that:
👉 Lets you share a screenshot directly from your gallery
👉 Detects phone numbers and emails in the image
👉 Gives instant actions like Call, Message on WhatsApp/Telegram, Send Email, or Copy
But I didn’t stop there.
📌 Someone sends you their IBAN as an image? Unscanny detects it and lets you copy it instantly.
📌 Need to send crypto and they send their wallet address as a QR code screenshot? Unscanny scans it and gives you the address in one tap.
If you've ever typed something you could've just tapped — Unscanny is for you.
