Works great!

I’ve been looking for a app to save my links that’s; free, easy to use, and has tags! And I’m so glad I stumbled on this as it hit all the boxes. Though will update this as I mess with the app more/add all my links + sort them

Nice app!

Wonderful tool, beautifully designed. A minor complaint: there is apparently a limitation where after 10 added items it asks you to subscribe, but this isn't mentioned anywhere — so kind of takes you by surprise.

Hey! The subscription screen is shown only when you've saved 10 links. After that, you need to be come a member (think of the first 10 links as a free trial with all features unlocked). Sorry you feel so strong against it!

Helpful

So far the use of Abyss has been satisfactory and works as expected. I don’t do reviews often and it’s nearly IMPOSSIBLE to get 5 stars 🌟 out of me but I have been using Abyss for a while now so I thought I would give it its due

Thank you for such a kind review! 🥳

Does it save the site too and not just the link?

First off, five stars automatically for any app like this that respects privacy and giving the user power locally. My question is, is this actually storing part of the website on the device as well? If so, that is awesome and it would replace apps such as Wallabag andstop me from having to need to self host my own server.

Thanks for such a kind review! About your question: yes, if you save the link offline, it generates a WebArchive of the website that's stored locally on your device (and synced to other devices via iCloud) and can be opened even when you're offline. You can try it out by saving a link offline, turning on AirPlane mode and then opening the link! 🙌🏼

Excellent

This app is really really good. Have saved so much with it and there doesn’t seem to be anything that it won’t save. Very handy to create folders and tags. Would recommend this app for saving anything you need to read later. Works superb.

Thank you so much for such a kind review! I've around 11.000 links saved, once you start you don't ever stop! I'm really glad you're enjoying the app 🙌🏼

Love the app!! There's just one thing...

Hello!

I have been very satisfied with this app since I've started using it. However, with the recent update (Version 4.8) I'm finding it takes more time to save links. Previously, I was good with the way the links were saved and I didn't find it bad to go to the app whenever I had to so the saved links could load. This time, I find it tedious for it to take me to the app itself each time and the loading time takes quite a bit. If it's possible to revert this change or have the option for users to pick between one or the other, that'd be great! Thank you.

Thanks for the awesome review! The change on how links are saved is because I'm working on a new feature to automatically remove trackers from links, and doing it on the extension (without launching the app) was becoming a problem. If I manage to find a way to do it there, I'll definitely revert the change, but I can't promise it! Hopefully you'll get used to the new flow if it's the one that ends up staying as the only way to save links 🙏

Unable to use or update…

Latest update notifies me that it needs iOS 17 in order to update, which I do not currently have. It then prompts me to download an older version, which I already have installed, but when I click yes, it fails to do anything, and then stops ALL the updates of all my other apps! Ummmm….I smell deletion of this app coming.

Hi WickedGirl33! I'm sorry you're facing this issue, but the App Store update is not under my control! Only users who're on iOS 17 should see the new update, users on older versions should just keep seeing the older version. Could you try a reboot of your device to see if it solves the issue? 🙏🏼

Almost great! Missing a key feature for me

I really like the sleek iOS ui, rather than the clunky non-native ui other apps I’ve tried use, and the offline functionality is very nice. The main thing I’m really missing from other read-it-later apps is an integrated reader view - I don’t like how links just open in a browser. In particular, I need the ability to remember my place in a long article, rather than loading back to the top when I back out to the inbox then click an article again

Hi Caketray! Sadly with the browser I'm using, you can't achieve that. I do use the system browser to protect user's privacy, this way the app doesn't ever know what you're actually browsing! Thanks for the review! ❤️

Nothing better for privacy!!!!!

Super smooth and clean. Has the level of customization I want to keep my data organized without the options turning into chaos.

It’s very important to me that the data I save isn't shipped off to some third party database. Can’t see myself using anything else.

Love the App

Big fan of the app - just supported the developer by purchasing a license. The only shortcoming of this app is that the desktop version does not support the share extension as the mobile version does. Other than that, this app is perfect for syncing saved webpages across devices and storing them offline.
