It is built for people who want to save, organize, and revisit personal videos, web references, and everyday files without jumping between different apps.

When a page is worth keeping, save it as a full-page screenshot, snapshot, PDF, or offline copy, then archive it in Files or continue with the iOS share sheet.

Videos and documents stay organized in one place, so the things you use often are easier to find. Private Space, a launch passcode, and Face ID help protect personal content.
