Cue is a cozy corner for the internet you mean to come back to. No feeds, no noise, no account — just your queue, waiting for the right moment. SAVE WITHOUT LEAVING Tap Share in any app and pick Cue. Tag it and add a note right there in the share sheet — Cue never opens, and you stay exactly where you were reading. The preview catches up on its own, title and image and all. Copied a link? Cue offers it when you open the app. Beautiful previews work across the sites that usually resist them: YouTube, X, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, Reddit, TikTok, Hacker News, GitHub, Wikipedia, arXiv and more. TAGS THAT ALMOST TAG THEMSELVES When you save, Cue suggests the tags you'd probably pick for that link — one tap files it. Tags sort themselves alphabetically, wear their own colors, and the tag box doubles as a live filter. Housekeeping is built in: merge duplicates, recolor, and see which tags have gone quiet. EVERY TAG BECOMES A SHELF Your Library keeps a shelf for each tag, so you can find things by how you filed them — and your archive is a shelf too. Search everything, or narrow by tag and by what kind of thing it is: Video, Post, Thread, Paper, Repo, Audio, Article, detected automatically. In the mood to watch something? Two taps. A QUEUE THAT ENDS Swipe a card to archive it when you're done, pin what matters, and enjoy the calm of an empty queue. Cue is designed to feel finished, not infinite. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE - No account. No ads. No analytics. No tracking. - Everything lives on your device and syncs through your own private iCloud — we run no servers and cannot see your data. - Your library is yours: export it as JSON or CSV anytime, or erase everything with one tap. OPENS THE APPS YOU LOVE Optionally open saved links directly in their native apps — YouTube, X, Instagram, Spotify, Apple Music, GitHub and more. Cue is lovingly small: fast to open, quick to save, calm to browse. Give your someday-links a home.
