DoMarks is the to-do app for bookmarks. Save links. Organize them. Check them off. Done! Create a Mark, assign an action, and transform your bookmarks into a focused, workable list. Whether it's articles to read, videos to watch, or podcasts to queue up — DoMarks keeps you on top of it all. Features: • Actions. Categorize Marks to build lists of videos to watch, articles to read, podcasts to listen to, and more. • Tags. Add tags to fine-tune your organization and find exactly what you're looking for. • A list built to be worked. Every Mark is a card showing its site icon, its action, and its tags at a glance. Swipe either edge — and choose which actions live there. • Cross-platform. Marks sync automatically via iCloud across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. • Siri & Apple Intelligence. Ask Siri to save the page you're reading in Safari, or to open, complete, or delete a Mark by name. Refer to what's on screen instead of naming it. • Spotlight. Your Marks, actions, and tags are searchable right from the Home Screen. Tap a result to open it in DoMarks. • Control Center. Add a Mark or jump straight to a list — or tap Surprise Me to open something you saved at random, without the app appearing at all. Put any of them on the Action button. • Shortcuts. A deep Shortcuts library for adding, finding, opening, completing, and organizing Marks, actions, and tags. Results come back as cards you can act on without leaving Siri. • Share Extension. Save links from Safari, social apps, or anywhere else - straight into DoMarks. • Drag & Drop. Drag a URL from any app directly into a list to instantly create a new Mark. • Widgets. Glance at your bookmarks from the Home Screen and jump right in. • Private by design. No ads, no tracking, and no bookmark ever leaves your own iCloud account. Go Premium and get more: • Manage unlimited marks • Create custom actions to label your marks your way • Create unlimited tags for better organization • View your full archive of completed marks • Import links from your browser or other services Going Premium also supports continued development - thank you!

About

Gistleaf

Features

Say what's on your mind. Keep what matters. Tap Record and talk. Gistleaf turns the recording into text right on your iPhone; the audio never leaves the phone and is never stored. Then AI suggests a few highlights from the note, the sentences worth remembering, and you keep or skip each one. What you keep shows up on your Home Screen through widgets, one highlight at a time. WHAT YOU GET • Voice notes transcribed on the device, in the languages you speak. Pick the language before each recording. Recording and transcription work without a connection. • Typed notes for the moments you'd rather write. • AI highlights: a few suggestions per note. Keep, skip, edit, pin or write your own. • Today's highlights on your Home Screen with small, medium and large widgets. The small widget is a Record button. • Back up and sync, if you turn it on. Your notes follow you to a new phone and stay in step across devices. Off by default and free. • End-to-end encryption for synced notes, if you want it. Only your phones can read them; a recovery key or a code scanned from your other phone brings a new phone in. • Sign in with Apple or Google. No password to remember. • No tracking. No analytics, no ads, no third-party trackers. ABOUT AI HIGHLIGHTS Highlights are suggestions an AI model makes from the text of a note. They are a starting point, not a summary to rely on: the model can miss the point or pick the wrong sentence, and you decide what stays. The text of a note is sent for this only after you agree in the app and only while AI highlights is on. Recordings are never sent. FREE AND PREMIUM Gistleaf is free to install and free to use: notes, on-device transcription, widgets and sync are included, with 10 AI extractions a month. Premium raises that to 200 a month. It is an auto-renewing subscription, weekly, monthly or annual. The annual plan starts with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers; the price and the day you would first be charged are shown in the app before you buy, and everything is billed through the App Store.
