KeepLink is an app that allows you to easily save and manage 'read later' or 'watch later' content directly from the 'share' option of other apps. โ–  Easily Manage Your 'Read Later' List Ever thought, 'I'll read this later when I have time,' and then forget about it? With KeepLink, you can easily save URLs directly from the share menu of other apps like Safari. โ–  Save with Notes Ever wondered, 'Why did I want to read this?' Wouldn't it be great if you could save the reason you were interested in the content, so you can enjoy it before the flame of curiosity dies out? With KeepLink, you can save notes along with URLs, so you never lose the context. โ–  Say Goodbye to Unrevisited Reads 'Things I read once and then forget about. I want to reread them, but I forget.' Great content is worth revisiting. With KeepLink, enable notifications and be reminded of the content you 'archived' at a specified time in the past. When notified of content you previously liked, it stirs your curiosity and wraps you in an indescribable sense of excitement. โ–  Take Notes While Reading Content Ever wished to take notes while reading content without switching between the content and a note-taking app? KeepLink's in-app browser is thoughtfully designed to ensure you enjoy the content to the fullest. For instance, if you want to take notes while reading an article, simply press the 'note' button in the browser to start noting. โ–  Absolutely No Ads & Basic Features Are Free Your curiosity will never be interrupted by irrelevant ads. โ–  Easily Switch to Other Apps Even if you come to dislike KeepLink, you can export all your saved data for free in CSV format. This allows you to easily switch to other apps like Google Sheets or Notion. Unlike other nefarious services that complicate the cancellation process to dissuade you from unsubscribing, we welcome all comers and chase none away, waiting for you with open arms.

Ranked #4 on the daily ranking of Product Hunt, the world's largest product launch platform! ----- "Knowledge is built from multiple pieces of knowledge" is the concept behind this note-taking app. Each note consists of multiple text blocks, which can be individually copied or deleted. By adding links to other notes, you can refer to them while editing your current note. The main features are as follows: - Categorize notes with tags - Copy or delete individual text blocks within a note - Add links to other notes for reference - Text formatting using Markdown syntax (more options will be added) - note duplication (this allows for template-like usage) We hope that Linky Notes will help you organize your information more effectively in the future!
