What is Shelf-Life?
Key Features
Efficient Monitoring: Uses your operating system's built-in file events to watch folders, consuming negligible system resources when idle.
Customizable Rules: Create rules to manage files. New rules start in a safe "preview" mode, letting you see which files would be affected before you activate them.
Safe File Removal: Integrates with your system's Recycle Bin to ensure files can be restored if necessary. Download Source Info: Automatically shows you where a downloaded file originated from, helping you decide what to keep.
Complete Activity Log: Maintains a detailed history of all actions for over 30 days, allowing you to undo any automatic move with a single click.
Lightweight: Built with Tauri, it runs smoothly using very little of your computer's memory.
