Tuckii is built for the tiny moments when a useful article, tool, video, or idea should not disappear into an endless feed. Save it in one tap from any app and find it again the moment you need it. WHAT'S NEW: • Tuckii in your language: the app now speaks 17 languages and follows your device's language. • Tags are free: tag your saves without Tuckii Pro. • Your own Home headline: write the two lines at the top of Home, or hide them. • Dark mode: a new darker look that's easy on the eyes. Turn it on or off in Settings. • Sorting: sort your collections by oldest, newest, name, or recently saved. Saves inside a collection can be sorted too, and Tuckii remembers the order for each collection. KEY FEATURES: 1. 1-TAP SAVE FROM ANY APP Tuckii plugs directly into the native iOS share sheet. Save links from Safari, Chrome, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, X (Twitter), newsletters, or podcast apps in a single tap. Tuckii automatically fetches the title, description, and thumbnail preview. 2. NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED, PRIVATE BY DESIGN Open the app and start saving immediately. Tuckii is local-first: your library of bookmarks lives in your device's local database, and we never track your reading habits. 3. ORGANIZE WITH COLLECTIONS AND SUBCOLLECTIONS Group your saved links into custom collections. A simple long-press menu lets you move, share, or delete bookmarks without breaking your flow. 4. INSTANT SEARCH Find any saved link in seconds. Tuckii's search bar scans across titles, descriptions, and URLs simultaneously, making retrieval fast and effortless. 5. FOCUS MODE Go through your new saves one at a time, so they get used instead of forgotten. 6. SYNC ACROSS IPHONE, IPAD AND MAC (TUCKII PRO) Keep your library up to date through your own private iCloud. One tap on Sync Now brings everything along, images included. 7. IMPORT, BACKUP & RESTORE Moving from another app? Easily import your existing bookmarks from other managers or browsers in seconds. Plus, you truly own your data: export a local JSON backup file to a safe location of your choice and restore your library anytime you switch devices. WHY CHOOSE TUCKII? • A clean, private alternative to Pocket: import your current bookmarks in seconds. • Consolidate links scattered across different browsers (Safari, Chrome) and social media apps into one searchable hub. • Works fully offline: access your reading list anywhere, anytime. • No accounts required and absolutely no ads: start saving instantly!
