You save a link "for later." Later never comes. Back to This fixes that. Instead of dumping links into a bookmark folder you'll never open again, Back to This reminds you โ€” again and again โ€” until you actually open the link or delete it. It's a link inbox with a nudge, not a graveyard. THE 15 RULE Your inbox holds up to 15 active links. Save a 16th and the oldest quietly moves to your Archive. A short, finishable list instead of an endless pile โ€” because if everything is saved, nothing is. HOW IT WORKS โ€ข Paste or share a link from any app โ€ข Tag WHY you saved it โ€” Read Later, Learn, Work, Idea, Buy, Watch, Reference โ€ข Pick WHEN and HOW OFTEN to be reminded โ€ข Get repeated reminders until you open it or let it go BUILT TO BE FAST โ€ข Save from any app with the Share extension โ€ข Tap a reminder to jump straight to the link โ€ข Open in the related app, or read inside the app โ€ข Clean, distraction-free, light and simple WHY PEOPLE LOVE IT โ€ข No feeds, no ads, no social clutter โ€ข No account required โ€” your links stay on your device โ€ข Reminders that don't let you forget โ€ข A calm inbox that stays small on purpose Stop bookmarking things into the void.
