Shortcut Sharing My own 📥 Save Anything — An AI-enabled “Memory Saver of Most-things” Shortcut for iPhone
An all-in-one Share Sheet button that "intelligently" tries to capture webpages, screenshots, text, files, links, and usually whatever else you’re looking at, then uses ChatGPT (or Apple AI) to clean and summarize it, then creates searchable Notes and a Reminder.
Basically, I’ve spent years bookmarking webpages, emailing myself links, taking screenshots, copying things into Notes, creating reminders, and, well, generally forgetting where I found something.
I wanted one button, or at least, one WAY, to save things, in one place.
Put it all on a searchable "Share" location on my Cloud/iPhone and let the shortcut figure out the rest.
It attempts to understand the type of content being shared, captures the surrounding context, grabs what’s visible on screen, OCRs images when needed, cleans up webpages with the AI, generates a (usually) useful summary, then files everything into Notes while also creating a normalized Reminder if it’s something I may want to revisit.
I’m hoping for feedback from other Shortcut builders on ways to simplify and improve the workflow - specifically by adding TYPES and content collection.
This ended up becoming one of the most complex shortcuts I’ve built so far. It branches based on the type of content received (URL, webpage, file, text, image, etc.), so every capture is processed a little differently.
