Recs
Read full descriptionHide full description
A home for your taste. The things you love are scattered across the internet - movies on Netflix, restaurants on Maps, books on Goodreads, articles in tabs you'll never reopen. Recs brings them together into a beautiful collection you can share. Recs is not a bookmarking tool. Bookmarks are storage - things you save and forget. Recs is curation - things you choose because they're worth recommending. Think Spotify playlists, but for everything. A Rec is anything worth recommending - a movie, a restaurant, an article, a product, a place. A Deck is a curated collection of Recs around a theme - something you're proud to share. Save from anywhere - one tap from any app using the share button. Every Rec becomes a visual card with image, title, and domain logo. Create Decks, follow people with great taste, and discover Recs from people you trust. People don't follow links. They follow taste.
