Your Mac tidies itself: screenshots, installers, Downloads

Tidy lives in your menu bar and handles three chores you keep doing by hand. It archives new Desktop screenshots, renaming them from their content with on-device OCR — "Screenshot 14.22.10.png" becomes "invoice-march.png". It ejects thedmg you mounted and trashes the installer. It sorts new Downloads by type, with rules you write in plain English. Apple Intelligence builds them on-device, so nothing leaves your Mac. Only touches new files. Never deletes. $9 once, no subscription.
the screenshots renamed via on-device OCR is such a thoughtful touch. honestly didn't know i needed it until i saw it. love that it only touches new files too, feels safe to leave running.
@berilyldrtfy2q Thank you! That feature came straight from my own pain: squinting at a wall of "Screenshot 14.22.10.png" thumbnails trying to find one bank receipt. Naming them by what they actually say felt obvious in hindsight — the best tweaks usually do.
And "feels safe to leave running" honestly made my day — that was the entire design brief in five words.
the on-device OCR renaming screenshots based on their actual content is such a clever touch. feels like the kind of small detail that makes you trust the rest of the app to do the right thing.
@berkevgo Thank you! You can judge a restaurant by its bathroom — small, unseen care predicts the rest. That was the bet with Tidy: an app that touches your files has to earn trust in the smallest details first, because that's where people decide whether to believe the big promises. Really glad the OCR naming carried that weight for you.
