You saved it. Now find it. Saved posts pile up across every app you use, and almost none of them let you search what you actually saved โ€” you get the caption someone else typed, if that. So the recipe, the workout, the place you wanted to go is in there somewhere, and you scroll. Fav is where saved posts stop disappearing. Share a link, post, photo, or video into Fav from any app, and an AI pipeline gives it a clear title, a short summary, and useful tags automatically โ€” so what's inside becomes findable even when the caption said nothing. No folders to maintain, no manual filing. When you want it back, just describe it in your own words and Fav finds it by meaning, not only exact keywords. SAVE FROM ANYWHERE - Use the iOS Share Sheet to save text, web links, images, and videos straight from the apps you already use. - Or add things inside Fav: paste a URL, pick images, or pick a video. - Duplicates are detected and skipped, so your library stays clean. AI THAT DOES THE FILING - Every save gets an auto-generated title, summary, and tags. - Text inside images is read and made searchable (OCR). - People and key background context are pulled out when relevant. - Not quite right? Tell the AI what to fix, ask it to re-analyze, or re-fetch the original โ€” you stay in control of every save. SEARCH BY MEANING - Describe what you're looking for ("a black kitten," "that article on focus") and find it even if you don't remember the exact words. - Filter results by media or text. - See why each result matched โ€” a title, tag, summary, or related content. REDISCOVER WHAT YOU FORGOT - Fav surfaces something you saved about a year ago, or this same week in years past, so good things don't get buried forever. KEEP IT PRIVATE โ€” OR SHARE IT - Every favorite is private by default, or make it public. - Explore public favorites from others, and follow people whose taste you like. - Turn any favorite into a shareable card with an AI "take" headline and a QR code that opens its web page โ€” no app required to view. YOURS TO KEEP - Save photos and videos back to your gallery, in your choice of quality. - Light, dark, or automatic theme, plus an alternate app icon. WHO IT'S FOR - Anyone drowning in saved links, screenshots, and "I'll read this later" tabs. - Researchers, creators, and curious people who collect more than they can remember. - Anyone who wants a personal library that organizes itself and is actually findable. PRIVACY - Sign in with Apple or Google. - No ads. No third-party ad tracking, and no IDFA. Saving, AI analysis, and search are free. Every account includes 5 GB of media storage and a daily allowance of AI credits. We'd love your feedback. STORAGE PLANS - Fav Plus: 50 GB of storage plus 8,000 coins each month. - Fav Pro: 150 GB of storage plus 20,000 coins each month. - If a subscription ends, media stored above the free 5 GB is kept for 30 days, so there is time to re-subscribe or export. - Auto-renewing monthly subscriptions. Payment is charged to your App Store account at confirmation, and renews for the same price and period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your account settings. - Terms of Use (EULA): https://fav.auin.ai/terms - Privacy Policy: https://fav.auin.ai/privacy

About

Siftlee

Read full description

You save and bookmark things all day. TikToks you swear you'll try. Screenshots of recipes you'll cook someday. A workout video from three months ago. A meme that made you laugh. A voice memo with a 2am idea. Then you can never find any of it again. The TikTok is buried under four hundred others, the screenshot is lost in your camera roll, the Instagram account goes private, the video gets taken down - and the thing you wanted to keep is just gone. Siftlee is your AI second brain. Save anything you might need later. When you want it back, just ask. And once a month, Siftlee does something no other app does with your saves: it writes you a magazine. THE SIFT - A MAGAZINE, WRITTEN FROM YOUR SAVES On the 1st of each month, Siftlee writes you a magazine about the month you just lived. The recipes you saved come back as real recipe cards. The rabbit holes you fell down become departments. The things you almost bought make the shopping pages, and the ideas worth acting on land in a shortlist at the end. It opens with an editor's letter about your month - because someone finally read all of it. Your issues live on a bookshelf at the top of Spaces. Pull a spine down and read your own month back. Not a member yet? A free sample issue is waiting on your shelf. WHAT YOU CAN SAVE - Videos & posts: TikToks, Instagram Reels & posts, YouTube videos, X posts, articles, blog posts - anything with a URL - Images: screenshots, photos, anything from your camera roll - Audio: voice memos, podcast clips, recordings - Documents: PDFs, Word files, text files Plus: save straight from TikTok, Instagram, Safari, X, YouTube or any app - just tap Share and pick Siftlee. WHAT SIFTLEE DOES WITH IT Siftlee reads, transcribes and understands what you save - including what's said in the videos. It automatically organizes related items into Spaces (broader categories) and Threads (related items within each space) - no folders, no tags, no manual filing. Then you search your entire library in plain English ("what did I save about Sicily?", "that pasta recipe from TikTok") and get an answer with cited sources, not a list of links to dig through. WHEN THE INTERNET DELETES, YOUR LIBRARY DOESN'T Videos get taken down. Accounts go private. Threads get nuked. What Siftlee captured - the meaning, the transcript, the source - stays in your library. X posts are even saved through the official X API, so when the original disappears, your copy survives. WHY IT'S NOT JUST YOUR FAVORITES FOLDER Your TikTok favorites, your camera roll, your bookmarks - that's where saves go to pile up. You can't search them by what's inside, they don't talk to each other, and they vanish when a video does. Siftlee is one library for all of it, searchable by meaning, every save linked to its source. SIFTLEE PREMIUM Try Siftlee free: save anything - TikToks, Instagram Reels, YouTube videos, links, voice memos, documents - with a starter run of saves and searches on the house. Premium removes every limit and delivers The Sift: your own monthly magazine, on the 1st. Subscriptions are auto-renewing - current plans and pricing are shown in the app. Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. PRIVACY Siftlee uses third-party AI providers to process the content you save. Full details are in our Privacy Policy. Your library is yours - delete any item or your entire account anytime.
