About

Screen Actions

Features
Read full description

Screen Actions turns on-screen text into things you can use — Contacts, Calendar events, Reminders or a CSV — fast and entirely on device. Select text in Safari, share from any app, or scan a photo/screenshot and pick an action. No accounts. No servers. No tracking. What you can do • Add to Calendar — Detects dates/times in text and creates an event. Optional location, alert, travel-time alarm, and geofenced arrive/leave notifications. • Create Reminder — Finds tasks/deadlines and makes a reminder in the list you choose. • Extract Contact — Pulls names, emails, phones and addresses into Contacts (you review before saving). • Receipt → CSV — Converts receipt-like text into a clean CSV you can save or share. Ways to use it • Safari Web Extension — Select text on any webpage, tap the extension, and choose an action. • Share Extension — Send text or images from any app into Screen Actions. • Scan (live) — Use the camera to scan text or barcodes/QR and jump straight into the right editor. • Auto Detect — Paste/scan once; the app picks the best action and opens its editor so you can tweak before saving. iOS 26 “Document Mode” (on supported iPhones) • Reads real tables and structured text on device for better results. • Receipts → CSV v2: photos/screenshots become accurate rows & columns. • Batch contacts: a photographed sign-up sheet can become multiple Contacts. Privacy by design • Everything runs on your device using Apple frameworks (Vision OCR/Document Mode, Data Detectors, EventKit, Contacts, MapKit). • We don’t collect personal data, don’t run servers and don’t use third-party analytics. • Permissions are only requested when you use a feature that needs them (Calendars, Reminders, Contacts, Camera, Location for geofencing). Free vs Pro • Free includes daily usage for key features. • Screen Actions Pro (optional in-app purchase) removes daily limits and adds quality-of-life extras such as “Remember last action” in the Safari popup. Prices are shown locally in the app. Why Screen Actions? • Fast: turn messy text into clean, structured data in seconds. • Accurate: on-device intelligence improves detection and table reading. • Private: no accounts, no tracking, no ads. • Flexible: works from Safari, the share sheet, live scan or paste. Requirements • iPhone, iOS 26 or later. Availability of Document Mode features may vary by device/language.
