HOW LINKS GET INTO THE APP • Share Extension — tap the share button in Safari or any app to send a link directly to LinkTrove • Clipboard Detection — the app notices when you’ve copied a URL and offers a one-tap save • QR Code Scanner — built-in camera scanner captures URLs from printed materials, posters, or screens • Manual Entry — paste or type any URL and the metadata is fetched automatically POWERFUL ORGANIZATION • Create unlimited categories with custom colors and icons • Nest subcategories for detailed structure • Add tags for flexible cross-category grouping • Mark important links as favorites for quick access • Full-text search across titles, URLs, descriptions, and tags BUILT FOR YOUR HOME SCREEN Two widget styles bring your links to the home screen: • Quick Access Widget — one tap opens your most important link • Link List Widget — shows recent links, favorites, or a specific category SIRI & SHORTCUTS • “Save Clipboard” — saves a copied URL without opening the app • “Open Link” — opens any saved link via voice command • “List Links” — hear your recent link titles read back to you Works with the Shortcuts app for custom automations — save links automatically when you leave the office, get a daily digest, or anything you can imagine.
