Mocked-up iPhone 15 Pro screenshot of an example result of my File Reminder shortcut.

I created this Shortcut to address a long-present and costly need of my own: interlinked, visible task management per single files of all types. It has begun to assist me in slowing the accumulation of redundant/duplicate/forgotten/lost files across all of my various file systems.

Out of the box, this version requires Toolbox Pro for its whole function.

Video Demo

Shown are two methods:

  1. Running the Shortcut independently (which will show a file picker.)
  2. Running the Shortcut from the Share Sheet.

Setup Steps

  1. Choose native Apple Files tag(s) to attach to the input file. (Optional)
  2. Customize behavior of the Change Case Action. (Optional)
  3. Customize the output format of the File Size detail. (Optional)
  4. Choose a List in Apple Reminders in which to add the Reminder result. (Optional)
  5. Choose whether or not the Reminder result will include an Alert. (Required)
  6. Choose the priority of the Reminder result. (Optional)
  7. Choose whether or not the Reminder result will be flagged. (Required)
  8. Choose tags (in Apple Reminders) to attach to the Reminder result. (Optional)
