![]() Smart Shelves are most powerful if you store a lot of items in Anybuffer. By combining filters and specifying whether all or any of them must be matched, it’s easy to create Smart Shelves tailored to your needs. Filters can also be created based on the text in an item, the kind of item it is, and its specific or relative date. With Smart Shelves, I can combine items found on multiple shelves or exclude particular shelves or groups of shelves. For example, I have shelves for MacStories, Club MacStories, Ad Sales, and Snippets, among others. Smart Shelves can also be based on whether an item is or isn’t a part of a regular shelf, which is one you create to hold whatever you’d like. It’s a powerful toggle that lets you create a smaller set of saved items that cuts across different shelves. With the latest update, whether an item has been marked as a favorite is one of the conditions you can set when creating a Smart Shelf. One of Anybuffer’s marquee features is the ability to create ‘Smart Shelves’ that work like saved searches. The commands are largely self-explanatory, but it’s worth calling out ‘Favorite,’ which is new. The app supports context menus, which provide access to a long list of actions, including Copy, Move, Rename, Compress, Favorite, Info, Quick Look, Open in Safari, Share, and Delete. Once added, items are displayed using rich previews that also include the title and size of an item. Most of Anybuffer’s actions can be accessed from context menus. That’s terrific for staying organized, but if you have a bunch of items you need to save quickly and don’t mind them accumulating in the Inbox while you work, the quick-save version avoids extra steps that would slow you down. By default, Anybuffer’s share extension asks you to name an item and pick a shelf where you want to save it. One new feature of the extension is an option to set up a quick-save version of it. You can also add items from the clipboard, the system document picker, your photo library, the system markup tools, and a share extension. ![]() The app supports multiple shelves for storing clippings, which work like folders for text, URLs, files, photos, and scanned documents. The app has been great, but with the latest version that supports widgets and the new iPad sidebar design, Anybuffer has taken a significant leap forward.Īnybuffer works with and syncs across the iPhone and iPad using iCloud. Lately, I’ve been using Anybuffer for both situations. Other times, I find something I want to send to someone later, and I don’t want to lose track of it. Sometimes I’m combining an image, some text, and a URL from different apps. Second, I use clipboard managers as a short-term holding pen for all sorts of information. I stash documents, snippets of text, and URLs that I need to send to people over and over, which is easier than digging around in the Files app or Dropbox. ![]() I use clipboard manager apps in a couple of different ways on my iPhone and iPad. ![]()
