## What is Shinybox?

Keep the things you want to come back to. Shinybox brings your notes, web links, images, PDFs, audio, videos, and documents into one personal library on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

SAVE FROM ANYWHERE
Use the share sheet to collect links, text, images, and files from other apps. Write notes with Markdown formatting, import documents, and keep your favorites close.

MAKE YOUR COLLECTION EASY TO FIND
Create lists, browse by item type, and search your saved content. Shinybox recognizes text in images and can transcribe imported audio on your device, making more of your library searchable.

GET HELP FROM APPLE INTELLIGENCE
On supported devices, Shinybox can suggest tags and lists, summarize saved items, and answer questions about your content. Choose an on-device model or Apple's Private Cloud Compute in Settings. Availability depends on your device, language, Apple Intelligence settings, and Apple's services.

READ AND REVISIT
Open saved links in a focused reader view, preview files, and return to the notes and ideas that matter to you.

ACROSS YOUR DEVICES
Your library syncs through your iCloud account when available. On Mac, a shelf keeps your collection within reach. Siri and Shortcuts help you save, find, and work with your items.

Shinybox runs on iOS 26, iPadOS 26 and macOS 26 or later. Siri & Shortcuts, Private Cloud Compute and image understanding need iOS 27, iPadOS 27 or macOS 27. Apple Intelligence features require compatible hardware and service availability.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-10-29

Much smoother with big libraries: faster launch, scrolling, search and imports. Now runs on iOS 26 and macOS 26. New Text Size setting, plus a text size button when reading articles and notes. Organizing slows down when your device is warm. Full page copies are now off by default (turn them on in Settings). Bug and crash fixes.

### 1.2 — 2026-10-27

• Saving a link you already have no longer creates a duplicate. Shinybox tells you it's already saved and keeps your notes, tags and highlights, with an option to refresh the saved page.
• Import your library from GoodLinks.
• Tags from imports and the ones you type are now kept when Shinybox organises your items.
• The Mac share sheet now has Save and Cancel buttons.
• New Appearance setting (Automatic, Light, Dark) and new app icons.
• iCloud sync fixes and other improvements.

### 1.1 — 2026-10-27

Save from Safari with the new extension, revisit your library with widgets, and import bookmarks and read-later collections. Ask questions about your library and explore related items.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-26

No release notes.
