- Mac users sorting varied files with unhelpful names
- Worth noticing
- Audio transcription is limited to its first 60 seconds; existing files require a folder scan and user approval before renaming.
Field notes
The format list spans image files, scanned PDFs, office documents, email, audio, video, and EPUB. The described workflow distinguishes new arrivals from files already on the Mac: a folder scan presents proposed names for review, while new files can be renamed after clearing a configurable confidence threshold. The page says audio transcription covers only the first minute.
