My Wife & I Have Adhd. We Saved Everything With Screenshots But Hated It Cluttering Our Camera Roll, So I Built My Own App. We Now Use It 20x A Day.
| TL;DR: I built a native SwiftUI app for iPhone, iPad and Mac that lets you save anything you find online into organised folders instantly. It works from the Share Sheet, so if you can tap Share, you can save it. Screenshots don’t touch your camera roll. The ProblemMy wife and I both have ADHD, and we had the same problem every day: We would save something important… Then immediately lose it. A recipe. And then later one of us would say: “I saved that somewhere.” Which usually meant checking: Photos. Half the time we would just give up and Google it again. The annoying thing was, we were not just forgetting to save things we were saving too much in too many different places.It was all just going into random places with no context. The camera rolls is the worst part. Hundreds of screenshots mixed in with actual life photos. When we were expecting our first kid, this got ridiculous. We were researching prams, car seats, sleep routines, recipes, baby monitors, nursery ideas, things to buy, things to compare, things people recommended. At the same time, I was running a business and saving marketing ideas, tools, advice, examples, posts, screenshots and links. One evening we worked out that between us, we had something like 40,000 screenshots across our two phones. Which is stupid. And the worst part was, we could barely find any of them again. So I built something for us. What I BuiltStash sits in your Share Sheet on iPhone. Anywhere you can tap Share, you can send something to Stash. Links. It is usually just: Share → Stash → Pick a folder → Done Then you go straight back to what you were doing. The main thing for me is this: When you save a screenshot into Stash, it does not go into your camera roll. It saves into Stash only. So your Photos app stays clean, and the thing you saved actually has somewhere useful to live. For my ADHD brain, that has honestly been massive. It is not trying to be some intense productivity system. It is just a quick place to throw things before your brain moves on. Then later, when you actually need the thing, you can find it again. you can now import and delete directly from the camera roll as well. In all honesty, the best way to use it is to find something and think, “I want to save that for later.” Share it, create a folder for it, and it will automatically save, and then you can get on with your day. You can also save quickly into Unstashed if you don’t want to create a folder at that time. Whenever that topic comes up again, you can send stuff into that stash. Right now I’m doing this every day with 20 different things. LinksApp Store: Website: Currently, it's Free for up to 100 saves if you'd like to try it first. There's also a promotion running until $9.99 for lifetime founder badge, but it will increase to $19.99 after July 31st. there's also a $7.99/month subscription with a seven-day free trial if that's better for you I’d genuinely love honest feedback from this community. Especially from anyone with ADHD, or anyone who lives with the same constant “I saved that somewhere” problem. I’m not pretending this is some magic productivity cure. It’s just been massively helpful for my wife and me because it removes one small bit of daily friction: Finding the things we already saved. Would love to know what works, what’s missing, and what would make you switch from your current setup. I’m building this based on real feedback and shipping updates constantly. [link] [comments] |
