The internet is full of things you want to come back to. A video. A recipe. A product. A post. A restaurant. A travel idea. An article you want to read later. Something you do not need right now, but know you will want again. So you screenshot it. Text the link to yourself. Bookmark it in Safari. Save it inside Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or another app. And when you actually need it, you cannot remember where you saved it. Indexd gives it all one place to live. Your card catalog for the internet. SAVE ANYTHING Save posts, products, videos, recipes, articles, guides, places, ideas, and links as Index Cards. When you find something you want to come back to, tap Share and send it to Indexd. You can also paste a link directly into the app. Indexd brings in useful details like the title, source, and thumbnail so the things you save are actually recognizable later. KEEP EVERYTHING TOGETHER Organize your Cards into Stacks for whatever matters to you. Travel ideas. Recipes to try. Things to buy. Videos to watch. Research. Gift ideas. Restaurants. Home inspiration. Anything else you want to find again. Instead of having one thing saved in a browser, another buried in screenshots, another sitting in your messages, and five more scattered across different apps, they can all live together in Indexd. FIND IT AGAIN Your Index is your personal library of everything you saved. Search across your Cards and Stacks when you need something instead of trying to remember which app you originally found it in. If you saved it, you know where to look. SHARE STACKS WITH OTHER PEOPLE Some things are better collected together. Planning a trip with your partner? Building a shared wishlist? Collecting restaurants with friends? Researching something together? Share a Stack and invite someone to view it or help edit it. Everyone can keep the useful links, ideas, and Cards for that topic together instead of sending links back and forth through messages. You stay in control with View only and Can edit sharing options. REMEMBER THE CONTEXT Sometimes the link is not enough. Add Notes to a Card so you remember why you saved it, what you liked, who it was for, or what you wanted to do with it. BROWSE WHAT YOU SAVED Not every search starts with knowing exactly what you want. Browse through your Cards visually and rediscover the things you meant to come back to. ONE PLACE FOR THE INTERNET YOU WANT TO REMEMBER Indexd is not another place to collect bookmarks. It is a personal card catalog for everything worth coming back to, no matter where on the internet you found it. No more digging through screenshots. No more texting yourself links. No more trying to remember which app you saved something in. Save anything. Find it again.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Indexd holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Links has 26 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
