Practical answers about imports, series, sharing and archive recovery.
How do I import codes?
Open the relevant app, choose App actions → Import CSV or TXT, and select a file from Files. Use one code per line in TXT files. CSV files need a Code column or a recognized Apple header; a link is optional. Check the preview, choose a series and confirm. Duplicates for the same app are skipped.
How do versions and batches work?
Select an existing series to add codes to the same version. Create a new series for a new version. The batch name distinguishes imported files; expiry can be set or updated for the entire series.
What happens when I archive a series?
Unshared codes are removed. Shared codes remain under Archived series in the app details, along with recipients, contacts and history. Original files stay intact and may still contain unshared codes removed from the individual records.
How do I share or copy a code?
Open a code, search for a recipient or enter their details manually. Choose Mail, SMS or WhatsApp and confirm sending in the selected app. The redemption link is included. Tap the code to copy it. CodeShelf cannot tell whether a code has been redeemed.
Can I retrieve the original file?
Open Original files in a series and tap a file to use iOS sharing: save it to Files, send it or open it in another app. For older imports without a saved original, you can attach the file without importing the codes again.
How do I recover after reinstalling?
First choose a folder outside the app container, preferably a dedicated iCloud Drive folder. After reinstalling, open Archive and select the same folder. A copy kept only inside the app may not survive deletion. Complete backup exports and previous local versions are available; cloud synchronization depends on the provider.
What is included in Free? How do I restore Pro?
Free includes 1 app and 100 codes in total, including archived codes. Pro is a one-time purchase for unlimited apps and codes. Open CodeShelf Pro in Archive and choose Restore purchases using the same Apple Account. An existing archive above the limits is preserved; adding more apps or codes requires Pro.
Contacts are unavailable or saving seems slow. What can I do?
You can always enter recipient details manually and manage the Contacts permission in iOS Settings. Check that the external folder is accessible and cloud files are downloaded. Avoid editing the same archive on multiple devices at once. Export a complete backup before changing folders.
