About
AutoShelf keeps your photo library and Files folders tidy with simple rules. Each rule reads like a sentence: if something matches, then do this. Mix any conditions with any actions and chain several actions in one rule.
HOW IT WORKS
Pick a ready-made template or build your own. Preview exactly which photos or files a rule matches before anything happens. Then tap Run All, or run rules from Shortcuts, widgets and Control Center.
IF A PHOTO…
- Is a duplicate, or blurry, dark or badly framed
- Is a screenshot, screen recording, Live Photo, burst, selfie, portrait, panorama, RAW or slo-mo
- Was saved from WhatsApp, Telegram, Safari or other apps
- Is a receipt, document, whiteboard or other useful-but-not-memorable shot
- Shows pets, food, nature, the beach, cars, tickets and more
- Looks like something you describe, such as "sunset at the beach"
- Contains text, a link, a phone number, an address or a QR code
- Has people in it, or is sensitive
- Was taken near a place, at night, on weekends or between two dates
- Is older, larger or longer than you choose, or is 4K or high-bitrate video
- Is an unpicked burst frame, a favorite, hidden, edited or in no album
THEN…
- Delete it, always with your OK
- Compress videos to HEVC and keep date, location and favorites
- Convert to HEIC or turn Live Photos into stills
- Add to an album named by date or kind, like Trips 2026
- Fix the date from the file name, auto-enhance or remove the location
- Export to a Files folder or save the text it contains
IF A FILE…
- Is an image, video, PDF, archive, document or folder
- Has a name, extension or tag you pick, or matches a pattern
- Contains certain words, or is a PDF longer than you choose
- Hasn't been opened or changed in a while
- Is a duplicate, empty, or a zip that's already extracted
- Is downloaded or only in iCloud
THEN…
- Move, copy or sort into folders by kind and date
- Rename with tokens, or smart rename from what's inside, like Invoice Acme October 2026
- Convert images, video and audio, or resize images
- Make PDFs from images, turn PDF pages into images or make scans searchable
- Zip, unzip, tag, flatten folders or remove metadata
- Free space by removing the download and keep it in iCloud Drive
- Save to Photos, or send yourself a notification
Share files into AutoShelf from any app and let your rules take it from there.
SAFE BY DESIGN
Photos are never deleted behind your back. Anything a rule wants to remove waits in Waiting to Delete until you confirm with the iOS prompt. Files a rule deletes wait in the AutoShelf Bin for 30 days, and you can undo a run from Activity. Everything runs on your device.
FREE AND PRO
Free: every condition and action, a few rules run by hand, up to a monthly item limit.
Pro: unlimited rules, no monthly limit and automatic runs in the background and when you open the app.
