What it does

Shimmer automatically organizes files on your Mac into a private, self-maintaining library. It works with folders like Desktop, Documents, and Downloads, and sorts files using names, extensions, and metadata, not file contents. You also get a Manual Library for anything you want Shimmer to leave alone, plus pause/resume controls and a one-click revert option for peace of mind.

Shimmer keeps Desktop, Downloads, and Documents organized automatically. Runs locally, never reads file contents. One-time purchase with optional renewals.

Shimmer watches the folders you choose and automatically sorts new files, using only file names and metadata. Your files are never opened or read. Shimmer works using only file names and metadata, keeping your private data completely secure. Based on workflows where Shimmer organized Desktop, Documents, and Downloads at the same time. Desktop, Documents, Downloads, cloud sync folders, network shares and external drives. Classification relies on file names and metadata only; stored names purge automatically after 30 days. A fast before-and-after view so you can see what Shimmer does at a glance. Install Shimmer, add your folders, and let it clean up automatically. The same organized…from infinia.us
