Save anything. Find everything. You screenshot things. You send yourself links. You mean to come back to them and you never do. Screencrate is the one place all of it lands, organized well enough that future-you can actually find it. SAVE FROM ANY APP See something worth keeping, hit Share, pick Screencrate. Links, screenshots, photos, videos, articles, products, and notes all land in one place. BRING WHAT YOU ALREADY SAVED Coming from another app? Import your library from Instapaper, Raindrop, or your browser's bookmarks file, and everything arrives with its tags, its folders, and the date you originally saved it. Duplicates are skipped. BOARDS, AND NOW BOARDS INSIDE BOARDS Build a board for anything you are planning: a wish list, a trip, recipes, a home project. Boards now nest inside each other like folders, so a big project can hold its own smaller pieces instead of becoming a pile. SHARE A BOARD WITH ANYONE Turn any board into a single web page and send it to someone. They open it in their browser, with your saves, notes and prices laid out and nothing to install. If they have Screencrate too, they can add the whole board to their own crate in one tap. PUT IT ON A CALENDAR Anything you save can carry a date. Appointments, repeats and reminders, a day view you can scroll back through, and a Today panel on the home screen showing what the day holds. Share a whole day as one document. FIND IT BY WHAT YOU REMEMBER Screencrate reads the text in your screenshots on your device, so the one with the address or the phone number is findable by typing what was written on it. Pro adds search by meaning: describe "that blue jacket" and it finds the jacket. WATCH THE THINGS YOU SAVED Save YouTube links to a board and that board becomes a playlist you can sit down and watch, playing in order through the official YouTube player. Sleep Mode dims everything around the player for winding down at night. EVIDENCE LOCKER Capture a web page exactly as you see it, sealed with a verifiable SHA-256 fingerprint so anyone can later confirm it was not altered. Useful for harassment, disputes, and anything you may need to prove later. Sealed capture and verification are free for everyone. PRICE DROP ALERTS, FREE Save a product and Screencrate watches the price in the background. When it drops, or hits the number you set, your phone tells you. If it sells out, you are told when it comes back. READER MODE AND NOTES Save an article and read it clean, without the clutter. Attach a note to anything, so the reason you saved it comes back with it. Give a note its own color or a photo behind it so the one you want is the one you spot. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR PHONE No account, no cloud you are forced into, no analytics, and no crash-reporting service. Your saves, your searches, and your images stay on your device. SCREENCRATE PRO One purchase, not a subscription. Pro adds search by meaning, the full Evidence Locker with cases and trusted timestamps and an evidence report PDF, your own photos as board covers, revisit reminders that resurface what you forgot, unlimited backups, and no ads anywhere.
