Json2Toon vs AnyStash for Shortcuts

Json2Toon converts JSON to TOON and back — seamlessly. What is TOON? Token-Oriented Object Notation (TOON) is a compact, human-readable data format designed for LLM input. It combines YAML's clean structure with CSV-style tabular arrays to minimize tokens while maintaining clarity. In benchmarks, TOON achieves 40% fewer tokens and higher LLM accuracy than JSON. Why use Json2Toon? If you work with AI tools, APIs, or large datasets, you know tokens cost money and context windows have limits. TOON lets you pack more data into fewer tokens — saving costs and improving results. Features • Bidirectional conversion — JSON to TOON and TOON to JSON • Mixed content support — paste text with embedded JSON/TOON blocks and convert only the structured data • Syntax highlighting — multiple color themes for readability • Token counter — see exactly how many tokens your data uses • Keyboard shortcuts — fast workflow with ⌘[ ⌘] ⇧⌘V ⇧⌘C • Shortcuts integration — build automation workflows on iOS and macOS • Spotlight & Services — convert data without leaving your current app (macOS) 100% Private All conversions happen locally on your device. No network requests, no data collection, no account required. Works completely offline.

AnyStash is a Shortcuts companion—and the name means what it sounds like: a place to stash what your automations need to keep—typed values and files, locations, event sessions, and Live Activities—so what you run stays visible, and what you save stays reusable. Not a calendar app: Event Sessions are start/stop activities with Live Activities and history, not appointments. Not only a parked-car pin: Parking here is a timed session on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island—start, end, and a trail you can review later. LIVE ACTIVITIES ON LOCK SCREEN & DYNAMIC ISLAND Start and stop Live Activities from the Shortcuts app or from AnyStash. Show a count-up or countdown on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island—with optional location and a reminder when a timed session ends. Everyday examples: • Parking — start a count-up when you leave the car; stop when you return • Focus — run a countdown for deep work or a quiet block • Meeting or Visit — keep status visible while you’re on site • Built-in categories include Parking, Focus, Meeting, Visit, and Generic; Pro unlocks custom categories EVENTS, LOGS & HISTORY Record event sessions with Start, End, and Checkpoint actions—handy as a run log for shortcuts, errands, or anything you want to review later. Browse sessions in the app, add notes, filter by category, and keep a clear history of what happened. CHECK IN & LOCATION HISTORY One-tap Check In saves where you are (Location When In Use—no continuous background tracking). Browse visit and location history on a map or list so you can find that café, trailhead, or parking area again. GLOBAL VARIABLES — YOUR DATA STORE Keep text, numbers, yes/no values, lists, dictionaries, and files (screenshots, PDFs, and more) in global variables that other shortcuts can Set and Get later. Use key paths for structured data. Content stays on your device by default; optional iCloud sync is under your Apple ID. BUILT FOR SHORTCUTS Add AnyStash actions in the Shortcuts app—no AnyStash account required. Purchases use your Apple ID; Restore Purchases brings Pro back on a new device. Free to try with the full Shortcuts action set. Pro Lifetime is an optional one-time unlock for unlimited sessions, custom categories, full history, and extra variable modules. Privacy-minded by default: sessions, variables, files, and precise location stay on device unless you enable Apple sync options you control. See our Privacy Policy for details.
