Back in 2014, a little app called Screeny debuted on the App Store and took the hassle out of deleting unwanted screenshots from your iPhone or iPad. A product of NFN Labs, Screeny was a nifty way to automatically scan entire contents of your iOS Camera Roll and quickly pick any unwanted screenshots for deletion. This was especially handy back then, as iOS did not have a separate folder for your Screenshots like it does today. Screeny did one thing and One Thing Well. Almost four years later, the team at NFN Labs has released Screeny 2.0 — a major…
