Storalink is more than a link storage solution; it is a commitment to efficiency and collaboration. Our mission is to empower people to easily organize, access, and share media links. Join us on the journey to redefine how digital content is managed and exchanged. Imagine browsing a platform and finding a resource you wanted to save for later or something to refer back to. Well, maybe two or three, even four links. Simple! Secure them on the platform using its save function. However, what if you have links from other platforms? If you save those resources on those platforms, you will have several places where you have stored those links. What if you wanted to view one of those saved links? And because you have so many places where you saved resources, you say: βWhere did I put that thing?β Say no more! Storalink is here! Current Key Features: Create and edit links Create and edit folders Pin important folders Save links to Storalink using other platformsβ external sharing functions Auto-fetch and auto-fill link metadata and information Open stored links in the default browser Have questions or suggestions?

Short notes, many times a day, saved as plain .md files in real folders. Open the same folder on your Mac in VS Code, Vim, or any editor. Calm, minimal, and ready for iPhone Duo. smalltype is for your notes. The small ones, the quick ones, the big ones, the unpolished ones. It's a fast, quiet place to type. ## Start No tutorial, no setup screen. Tap New Note and start typing. Leave one empty and it quietly disappears, so you never end up with a pile of blank untitled notes. That's the whole app. ## Yours Every note is a real .md file, sitting right there in the Files app. You can open it, copy it, or back it up yourself, anytime. Delete one and it still goes to Recently Deleted, same as any other file: nothing's gone for good. ## Sync or Don't Keep notes in iCloud Drive to have them on every device. Or keep them On My iPhone, fully local, never leaving your device. Either way, you can switch anytime. ## Visible Markdown Markdown markers stay gently visible as you type. What you see is exactly what's in the file. A bar above the keyboard types the markers for you, with undo and redo a tap away. ## Organize Folders, search, and quick note-making, all from one screen. Nothing to set up first. Put "daily" in a folder's name and new notes inside it get today's date as their name. ## No Catch No ads. No subscription. No tracking. No account, ever. Markdown notes. Yours to keep.
