Schedule articles and videos into your day — then actually finish them.
Share a link from Safari, YouTube, or any app on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Pick a time, and Chalk It In reminds you when it's time to read or watch.
Give your saved links a time to read or watch, instead of leaving them in a growing pile.
Save it now. Chalk it in for later.
SHARE FROM ANYWHERE
Send an article, video, newsletter, or tutorial from the Share Sheet on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Chalk It In estimates how long it will take when it can, or starts from a 20-minute default you can edit. Inbox saves stay available; scheduling a time is part of Pro.
YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE
See your plans by day and swipe through the week or month. Tap an item to open Focus, then start the timer when you are ready.
Missed a scheduled day? Catch Up gathers those leftovers so you can start, reschedule, or let them go — without hunting through the calendar.
The Today's Schedule Home Screen widget shows what's next. Tap to open Focus; the timer starts only when you choose.
Touch and hold a scheduled reminder to start Focus, snooze for an hour or reschedule.
FOCUS MODE
A timer for reading and watching. Pause, resume or add 5 or 10 minutes in the app or Lock Screen Live Activity. Dynamic Island is available on supported iPhones.
With Pro, save a short takeaway while the idea is fresh. You can also enable or disable automatic iOS Focus in Settings. This optional integration needs one-time Shortcuts setup; the app timer works without it.
BOOKMARKS & SMART LISTS
Everything you save lives in Bookmarks too. Smart Lists group it automatically:
• Unread — not finished yet
• Starred — your favorites
• Videos — YouTube, Vimeo, Twitch, and more
• Untagged — still needs a home
• Completed — what you've actually finished
Search your library, review duplicates before deleting, and export any view as HTML for any browser. Pro lets you create and rename labels; assigning existing labels is free.
TODAY'S PICK
When saved links have been sitting unused, Today's Pick suggests one worth doing now — not something you already committed to today.
DASHBOARD
See completion rate, focus time, and streaks by week, month, or year. Proof that saved links are turning into finished reads.
DEVICE SUPPORT
Designed for iPhone and iPad. Also available on Apple silicon Macs as an iPad app. The app interface is in English.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No ads. Bookmarks and schedules stay on your device and sync with your own Apple iCloud. We don't run our own server to store your reading list. Usage analytics is optional; a random installation identifier connects events.
WHO IT'S FOR
Built for anyone sitting on a pile of saved links — especially students, researchers, and other people who collect papers, lectures, articles, and videos faster than they can get through them. If your browser bookmarks or Watch Later list is a graveyard, this is the habit: pick a time, then finish it.
