我一直在使用 Shinybox，一个个人图书馆，用于保存所有“稍后”需要的内容，包括链接、笔记、截图、PDF、语音备忘录、视频、文档。我保存很多东西。问题是它们散落在书签、备注、照片和下载文件夹之间，我永远找不到需要的那一个。

所以我创建了一个集中地方，快速保存且易于再次查找。

What it does:

• Save from anywhere: the share sheet, a Safari extension that saves the whole page or just the passage you’ve selected, drag and drop, or paste.
在 Mac 上有一个位于屏幕边缘的抽屉：把东西拖到它上，然后拖回其他应用，以及服务菜单选项。

• Links become something you can read: a clean reader view, reading time, highlights and “continue reading”。

It can keep a copy of each page in case the site disappears, and it flags links that have died.

• Search finds the words inside things: text in screenshots and scanned PDFs, transcripts of voice notes, even the captions of saved YouTube videos.

You can also search by meaning, so “that chair I liked” finds the photo.

Apple Intelligence does the filing: tags, summaries, and suggested lists. You can also ask your whole library a question and get an answer with numbered sources. You choose whether it runs on your device or on Private Cloud Compute.

• Organizing: smart lists that fill themselves, lists locked with Face ID
◦ reminders on any item
◦ Rediscover, which brings back a few older saves each day

• Automation: 24 Shortcuts actions, Siri phrases, widgets and Control Center controls.

• Your data, both ways: if you have an old Pocket export, Raindrop or browser bookmarks, and export everything to JSON or Markdown (ready for Obsidian).

Problem: My saves were split between Safari’s Reading List, Apple Notes, the Photos screenshot album, the old Pocket, and my Downloads folder. Each one was fine on its own, but none of them could search the text inside a screenshot I took three weeks ago next to the article I read the same day.

Comparison:

There are plenty of apps like this, and some are excellent, so here’s how Shinybox fits in:

• Scrappy is the closest to Shinybox. It’s also on Mac, iPhone and iPad, with a Drop Shelf on the Mac as well, a reader view, smart lists, and search that finds text in images and scanned PDFs. It’s a subscription with a two‑week trial. Shinybox is free, and adds Apple Intelligence on top: automatic tags, summaries and filing into lists, plus asking questions across your whole library with numbered sources.

• Anybox is a polished, Apple‑only bookmark app with iCloud sync and smart lists, free with a Pro upgrade. Shinybox leans further beyond links: transcripts of voice notes and YouTube videos, a copy of every page you save, and alerts when a saved page disappears.

• Raindrop is the pick if you need Windows, Android, the web or shared collections. Shinybox is Apple‑only and has no account: your library lives on your devices and in your own iCloud.

• GoodLinks is a great, focused read‑later app for links. Shinybox has a reader too, but it’s built for everything else you save as well: screenshots, PDFs, audio, video and notes.

• Apple Notes is free, built in, and still what I use for long writing. Shinybox is for saving things rather than writing them, with a visual grid and the Mac shelf.

Where the others are ahead:

• Raindrop works across platforms.

• Scrappy and Keep It have years of polish.

• Shinybox is brand new, and that’s exactly why I’d love feedback.
