A macOS and iOS app for tagging, organizing, and archiving PDF documents using a filesystem-friendly naming convention.
PDF Archiver is a macOS and iOS application designed to help users tag, organize, and archive PDF documents like bills, letters, and receipts. It solves the problem of cluttered digital documents by applying a consistent naming convention and enabling easy search across devices. The tool integrates with iCloud Drive to keep archives synchronized between Mac and iPhone.
Individuals and professionals who receive many paper documents and want a simple, digital filing system without relying on complex document management software. It's ideal for Mac and iPhone users who prefer filesystem-based organization.
