First I was like, "How does it detech screenshots in other apps?"
Then i was like, ahh, it must look at the images added to the Photoroll :) It should be added somewhere on their website like FAQ.
I need to try it out!
For those who are curious, we explain a bit more how it works here:

That gives me a 502 sadly.
Try again now, we had a temporary maintenance outage.
I don't have a problem with it myself, but I suspect using Location Services to allow for background processing is against Apple's App Store guidelines.
How is that different from one shot?
Oneshot is great for sharing a snippet of an article via Twitter. Blink is aimed at everything else, providing a way to share content from any app anywhere.
So basically Skitch for mobile?
Kindoff...except it doesn't have the standard tools (arrows, text color customization) that you'd expect from a tool for PM's like Skitch. What you will find other features that help preserve context (hotlink blink & selective highlight/crop) and make sharing ad-hoc screenshots faster (blink instant) and more fun (scalable emojis).
