SaveSort is a smart download organizer for Chrome that automatically sorts downloaded files into clean, easy-to-find folders. Instead of letting PDFs, images, archives, documents, videos, and other files pile up in one Downloads folder, SaveSort organizes them for you as they are downloaded.
SaveSort is designed to be simple, fast, and local-first. Install it, turn automatic sorting on, and continue browsing normally.
