PDF Library Accumulation Without Organized Retrieval on macOS
macOS users who collect large numbers of PDFs have no native system for organizing, tagging, or retrieving them meaningfully over time. Files accumulate without useful filenames or categorization, making previously saved content effectively inaccessible. This is a personal productivity gap for knowledge workers and researchers who save documents with intent to revisit them but lack the tooling to do so efficiently.
