Mac Screenshot App – Change default screenshot and recordings location

Screenshot app in Mac OS Big Sur is quite useful tool for taking screenshots and screen recording. The default location for saving screenshots and video recording file is Mac desktop.

Mac OS Big Sur users can change the default location to documents or any other location by using the option menu

Launch Screenshot app.

Click the options menu and select Other location. Then create a folder of your choice. In this example, I have created a folder “Screenshot” under desktop.

Any screenshots or recordings will be stored under the newly created folder.
