What's New in Bookmark URL Saver

1.8.7

September 10, 2026

Hey there, fellow collector! This update is all about making Trace look the way you want it to. You can now decide exactly what shows up on every capture and collection card, right down to a pure image wall with no text at all. Articles in Arabic, Hebrew, Persian and Urdu finally read right to left. And under the hood, big libraries scroll faster than they ever have. What's new and improved: • Capture card options: show or hide the title, description, source name, favicon, and the "..." button on any capture • Collection card options too: description, captures count, modification date, row size, and number of columns • Long-press any capture or collection to open its full menu, so hiding the "..." button costs you nothing • A live preview at the top of Appearance that updates instantly as you tap, so you always see the card you're building • A new 3-column grid on iPhone for a dense, image-only view of your library • Edge-to-edge images that fill the whole card, with no padding • Right-to-left reading: Arabic, Hebrew, Persian and Urdu articles now lay out correctly in the reader and in exported PDFs • A redesigned theme picker with mini device mockups, including a new System Black theme • A full accent color palette, with the colors you star kept at the top • Type badges on every capture: video, thread, gallery, PDF, photo, screenshot, or article at a glance • A Reset to Default option on every Appearance screen • A cleaner pin marker on pinned collections: it now sits on the description line in your accent color instead of floating in the corner • Captures with no thumbnail now get a proper card instead of a title clipped at the edge • Per-site link settings now cover a whole domain at once, so every publication on the same host shares one setting • A polished app icon, with a proper dark variant for dark mode • Much faster scrolling and paging in large libraries, with lighter cached thumbnails • Fixed captures that stopped loading when you reached the bottom before the library finished loading • Search results now keep loading as you scroll instead of stopping at the first screen • Video previews stand down in Low Power Mode and with Reduce Motion turned on • Loading placeholders that match your chosen layout, plus richer collection covers • Various bug fixes and stability improvements throughout the app Enjoying Trace? A quick review on the App Store means the world to us. It helps other people discover the app and keeps us motivated to keep building. Got feedback or hit a snag?

These type of Apps help the most!

I’ve only had it a few days but I do love the thought of not having to keep putting off organizing my entire phone!

I don’t know why this app is here

I’m not sure I’ve had a disappointing experience with an app the way I have with this. I purchased this app last month, only for it to be a waste of my money. The app creators have ignored my initial complaint and no, I don’t need to hound service providers to ensure the service they advertised work.

First of all, none of my articles I saved load despite setting the app’s reader as the default. 13 articles from 4 different unpaywalled websites. Not a single one saves with the extracted article: I do get a link intended to redirect me to the site I saved the article from, which defeats the purpose of me saving it in the first place. This is one of the issues I raised when I sent them an email. At that time, it was 2 websites and I specified them.

The syncing feature takes forever, to the point where, I haven’t even bothered to check if I have everything on the same devices, especially if you consider the first two issues. Connected to the syncing feature is this: when you save in Safari, it doesn’t automatically move to the app.

Secondly, the space dedicated to the reader is smaller than the capture area. There’s more space for the captured items and the reader has 1/4 of the screen real estate. No, beyond a certain point, you cannot adjust it. If you’re a reader and you’ve used other reading apps, you know you don’t dedicate more real estate to displaying captures at the expense of the reader.

I would have loved nothing better than to quietly use the app I purchased and go about my merry way but alas, wishes aren’t horses. Perhaps, if I’d seen a review like this, I would have stayed away. Hopefully, this helps you make an informed decision.

Free Lifetime Trace scam (Updated)

Redeemed LIFETIMETRACE code back in November ‘25, fast forward to today and it’s offering me LIFETIME access for $40, was a cool app but how can you get away with this bait and switch? I already had Lifetime but now I have to pay to access it? Please help

Update : Developer reached out and asked I SS the paywall pic and when I opened the app to do so the restore option was showing now and I hit restore and I’m back being a lifetime pro, love the app just was mad I lost Lifetime access for a bit

Response from developer

Hey, really sorry about this, that should not be happening. If you redeemed LIFETIMETRACE back in November, your lifetime access should still be active. Could you email me at hello@theblackholecompany.com with screenshot of the paywall? I'll get it sorted right away.

Amazing

This app is worth every penny you spend. It was already a very useful and beautiful app, but in recent updates, it has become much smoother and faster.
Now, with the ability to categorize screenshots, and also the addition of the Mac version, I think everyone should have this app on their device.

Response from developer

Thank you so much, this genuinely made our day! We've put a lot of work into making each update feel faster and more polished, so hearing that it shows means everything. The screenshot categorization and Mac version are just the beginning, there's a lot more coming. Thanks for being along for the ride!
