Where does Screeny put the recorded video or image file?

I’ve been experimenting with Screeny by Daeo Corp. Software, for recording screencasts on a Mac. It works well, but it took me ages to figure out where the app saves the movie or image files.


Here’s the answer: Screeny creates a “Screeny” directory inside your “Movies” directory, and puts the files there. They’re .mov files.


~/Movies/Screeny


​Here’s an example file name:


Screeny Video 26 Mar 2016, 5.47.45 AM.mov


​Here’s what the directory looks like in Finder:


Where Screeny puts its movie files


Screeny puts the files in that directory as soon as you stop recording. There’s no way to change the default location of the files.


​What about single screenshots? Screeny puts those into a Screeny directory in your “Pictures” directory:


~/Pictures/Screeny​


​Example file name:


Screeny Shot 26 Mar 2016, 6.09.59 AM.png​


I hope this helps you find your screencasts. :)
