Looking for a way to automatically collect iOS screenshots and add them to the Screeenshots album, but with high accuracy (trying to avoid false positives).

It's fairly simple to track down the various device resolutions, and that the camera was iPhone/iPad/iPod, etc. However, that doesn't really narrow it down, as those also include photos taken from the device, as well as wallpapers. Maybe in a future Photos.app update, these will update automatically. Just wondering if anyone can guess at the metadata criteria Apple uses, or if they simply place that image in the Screenshots folder by default.

I highly doubt it, I wonder if you can pass in regex as a filename pattern. That would make it a lot easier.

Photos.app: Unique smart album criteria for identifying iOS screenshots?
