## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Crashes when trying to share from Safari

*2025-05-24*

Just what the title says. If I open the app and paste something in it works fine, sharing from safari pops up an error.

### 2/5 — Missing functionality

*2025-01-26*

The iOS app is missing a lot of basic functionality of the web app. The inability to create or access highlights, edit any items, or even change the display mode on mobile to have more than one single column makes the app nearly useless for everything except adding new bookmarks on the fly.

### 2/5 — Latest Release Broken on Firefox

*2025-01-19*

Hoarder is one of my favorite apps to track all my links. Unfortunately, the latest release of the app has broken the “Share” functionality in Firefox. When I share a link from Firefox, the URL is bundled into the notes, so links are no longer “clickable” from within Hoarder.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-04-03*

Plus no way to even delete an item. Lame.

**Developer response:** You can definitely delete items from karakeep. Make sure you’re running the latest server version.

### 3/5 — Great app & integration - missing basic features

*2025-06-23*

I really like everything that Karakeep does, but some of the missing features are baffling. 

Why am I unable to edit the link name on IOS?

Why are the bookmarks not added to lists in the iOS UI? 
I can see that they’re part of a list on the webapp with no issues.

### 4/5 — Firefox has issues

*2025-03-10*

When sending a link via share from Firefox hoarder treats it as a text not and not a link. This used to work without issues please fix!

### 4/5 — So Far So Good

*2024-12-26*

I'm loving this app so far, it's become my Omnivore replacement. I would love if the iOS app would support using insecure SSL certificates so I can self-host behind a VPN, and I would love a TTS feature like omnivore had

### 5/5 — 真的是太棒了！

*2025-06-20*

非常喜欢这个app，自己也部署了一个，真的是太棒了！

### 5/5 — Hoarder is the best

*2025-04-12*

Use this app everyday! Could not ask for more except a share button

### 5/5 — How to use？

*2024-12-27*

The system doesn’t allow me to register, I cannot log in, and the service is entirely unusable.

**Developer response:** Hoarder is not a generally available service. Hoarder is meant to be self hosted (you run it on your own servers). You have to first install the server (using the following docs: https://docs.hoarder.app/Installation/docker), register there and then you’ll be able to use this creds to login on the mobile app.

### 5/5 — This is a great app and keeps getting better

*2024-12-24*

The AI features are a great addition and helps make the process of managing lots of reference material easy to capture and find/use later.

### 5/5 — meow

*2024-12-22, version 1.6.5*

good app love hoarder meow

### 5/5 — Works great when self-hosting

*2024-12-09*

So easy to connect to my computer and save links from my phone. However, there is no way to manually add tags or see the list of tags like there is on the desktop version. I’d love to have a menu to see all tags and be able to add them.

### 5/5 — BUG

*2024-12-03*

When I click the + in the upper right corner and input a long paragraph of text in New Bookmark, the input method that comes with iOS will block the save button, resulting in the inability to submit. I hope this can be fixed. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2024-11-22, version 1.6.5*

This is quickly become one of my most used apps. Right now the only thing that it’s really missing from the iPhone is the ability to tag items, but I’m told that’s coming! The developer has really created an entire ecosystem very quickly! This is massively, reduced the number of tabs I have opened at any given time.

### 5/5 — Hidden Gem

*2024-10-30, version 1.6.3*

this is self hosted app and it is amazing. i can’t thank developers enough for their efforts. 

for those who don’t know i use it as bookmark saving app. it also saves notes and all kind of random stuff. 

all in your control.
