This is one where I have not figured out why Apple doesn't want us to have it but thanks to the kind developer we do. Thank you!

Killer app

Makes sharing so much easier. No complicated set-up, it just works. Excellent work.

Life saving!

Love this app, super useful and convenient!

Snowy_Joey_, App Store,

Perfect fit!

I’ve recently begun writing small macOS utility apps to automate things at work, being able to use Shareful + SwiftUI’s ShareLink allows me to keep things simple. Thanks Sindre!

The share services do not show up in System Settings

Shareful provides share services (Copy, Open In, etc.) which macOS is supposed to pick up. Shareful has no control over how it works. In some rare cases, macOS can fail to pick up these share services. This is a problem with macOS not Shareful.

Here are some things you could try:

If you are on a work computer, it could also be that your company has blocked third-party share services.

Can you add a “Move” or “Delete” action?

This is unfortunately not possible. Share extensions (for example, the “Copy” action), usually only receive a copy of the file. They have no guaranteed access to the original file.

Can you add a “Copy Path” action for use in Finder?

That would be moot. Right-click a file in Finder, press the Option key, and select “Copy as Pathname”.

Can you add items that run specific Shortcuts in the Share menu?

No. This is not possible.

You could use my Short Run app instead. It can show a curated list of shortcuts in the menu bar, automatically showing some based on which app is currently active. Although, it won’t be able to receive what the share items receive.

Why is this free without ads?

I just enjoy making apps. Consider leaving a nice review on the App Store.

Can you localize the app into my language?

I don’t plan to localize the app.
