Fantastic

Great app but the webversion is much better

Response from developer

Thanks for the 5 stars, A ShadowMoose! We know the app still has room to improve, and we’re working on it. Stay tuned!

No longer save sites on iPhones

As of August 2025 Start.me can no longer save websites regardless of whichever browser one uses. Apple devices do not play well with third party software and it’s grown worse over years. I suspect that this more to do with Apple than Start.me as this is a recent problem. What once was the so called walled in garden has become a fenced in high security prison yard complete with turreted armed guards and electrified barbed wire barricades. I wish I never bought the iPhone 16.

Thanks for informing us about this issue, Databanktwo. We've also noticed some issues with saving, and we're investigating as to its causes. We hope to find a solution soon. And as as workaround, you can always copy the link to the page you want to save, and paste it to a bookmarks widget. Just press the pencil icon, and paste. We hope this helps for now!

The best bookmark manager

I love the widgets specially rss widgets. It’s very useful if you use different browsers.

Start.me

Seit Jahren mein treuer Begleiter auf PC, MacBook, Tablets und iPhones. Leider wird für Start.me jedes Jahr 28,56 EUR fällig. Kauf der Lizenz (Einmalzahlung) wird nicht angeboten.

Weird

Does this cause you to receive an alert from Google saying you signed in from a Galaxy Nexus?

Response from developer

Hi Crod.it22, thanks for your comment. No, start.me is not responsible for any messages coming from Google. However, if you use Google to log into start.me, you might trigger reactions from them, we're not aware of and don't control. If you get this message again, please make a screenshot and send it to our support team (support@start.me). We'd love to investigate and help you out!

Wonderful

I use the web browser all the time, it is a great home page service. Thanks

Best Bookmark Organizer I have used

Please keep it supported guys, it just fits totally my visual mindset on organizing bookmarks. Thank YOU

A REALLY FANTASTIC AND EXTREMELY USEFUL APP! I

I LOVE THIS APP BECAUSE IT SIMPLIFIES MY LIFE ENORMOUSLY. I CAN STORE AND ORGANIZE ALL MY BOOKMARKS IN AN EXTREMELY HANDY WAY AND ALL FROM ONE PLACE ONLY.
I CANNOT THANK THE DEVELOPPERS ENOUGH FOR THIS JEWEL!

I CAN ALSO ACCESS ALL MY BOOKMARKS FROM MY IPAD AND MY DESKTOP SINCE THE APP SYNCHRONIZES IT ALL.

Now you're making us blush! 🙏

Life changing!!!!

I’ve been looking my whole life for something like this a central location to organize everything AND on all devices!!

Response from developer

Great to hear this, Jillian!

Eigentlich sinnlos

Kann nicht wirklich mehr als ein von der Seite start.me erstelltes Lesezeichen auf dem Startschirm.
Umschalten zwischen Tabs nicht möglich, da vom Upgrade auf Pro überlagert.

It works now

New version May, 2022 works OK. I will keep using it as the home page in the browser for now instead of the app. That has worked well for a me.
Original Review:
Displays the wait circle at startup and it never goes away.

Response from developer

Thanks a lot for updating your review. If you have any other concern, we're listening! Original Response: We've updated the app, so it should work fine now. Please let us know if you run into an issue. You can contact our support team by email: support@start.me. Thanks for your help!

Best share bookmark

Since i met startme, I use it instead of bookmark in all my browsers on pc, iphone and tablet. I use startme as Rssfeed, too. Besides i can add custom widgets. Thanks to startme, i can easily synch my favorites, notes, agendas, feeds between devices.

Great bookmark manager

I’ve been a paid subscriber for a number of years and this app is a great enhancement. There’s really nothing missing except for maybe tagging the bookmarks. Fantastic product!

Response from developer

Thanks for your review and five stars! You mentioned the option to add tags to your bookmarks. You've correct: we haven't added this feature, but you can use the description field of your bookmark to add all the keywords you want. Our search function also checks the description, so you can find all the related bookmarks later. We hope this helps!

More than a bookmark manager

A very beautiful and elegant start page platform for bookmarks, tasks, notes and widget. Highly recommended.

Response from developer

Thanks a lot for your review!

Alles bestens!

Lauft!

Great, but missing one thing on the mobile client...

Can you take into account our default browsers rather than continuing to leave the safari button on the bottom or the application? For example, I want that “open with safari” button replaced with “open with Chrome” or “open with Edge” depending on which is set. Because this application is perfect otherwise, I just would prefer to go to my default browser where all my passwords are saved rather than continuing to open up in safari, manually copy the link and paste and go to my default browser. Minor annoyance. Please fix :) I love this service.

Response from developer

Thanks a lot for your review and feedback! We've been looking at the issue you reported, and it looks like we can reproduce it. The button at the bottom is Safari. However, when I click it, it opens my preferred browser, which is Chrome. Can you please verify. I've asked the Development Team to change the icon according to the preferred browser. If you have any other question, please contact our support team by email: support@start.me. Thanks again!

Great companion to the Start.me service

Works perfectly on my XR.
