TagingVault
Read full descriptionHide full description
TagingVault is an offline workspace for reusable hashtag sets. Save named sets, clean pasted blocks, and copy a tag list into your editor. Version 2.1 adds Echo Cut, a carryover cutter unique to this app. ECHO CUT Rotating the set is not enough if the same tags keep traveling with you. Echo Cut compares a candidate set against the tags inside your recent logged posts โ including posts that used a different set โ then copies the leftover block. It is not a set score, not a caption-density check, and not a cloned lab worksheet. BUILD AND ROTATE - Create, search, pin, favorite, duplicate, and edit sets - Normalize pasted tag blocks and remove duplicates - Assign sets to days in the weekly planner - Record when a set was used and review outcomes you log yourself INSPECT WHEN YOU NEED IT - Set Audit combines local cautions, reuse history, and cross-set overlap - Compare two sets, blend sets without repeats, and scan library redundancy - Caption density and tag-check tools stay advisory. They do not claim live platform limits or predict reach. OFFLINE REFERENCE Browse a bundled, hand-edited catalog. TagingVault does not connect to social-platform APIs. YOUR DATA STAYS LOCAL No account, ads, analytics SDK, or subscription. Sets, planner notes, and usage history stay on this device unless you export them.
Noter

Share a link, some text, a photo or a PDF to Noter and it becomes a note. The share sheet saves it straight away, without opening the app, and the note shows up on your other devices. A note with a link gets a preview card with the page's title, image and description. GitHub, Reddit, YouTube, Hacker News and X links also get a detail line, like stars, points, comments or the channel. If you add an API key from Anthropic, OpenAI or Google Gemini, Noter writes a title, a short summary and tags for each note you share. The key stays in your keychain and the request goes from your phone straight to that provider. Edit the title or body yourself and Noter leaves your text alone. The rest is a plain notes app: 1. Pinned notes on top, then the most recent. 2. Search over titles, bodies, tags and link previews. 3. Tags that suggest the ones you already use, each with its own color. 4. Pin, archive, share or delete from the note's menu. A delete can be undone for six seconds, or by shaking the phone. 5. Home and lock screen widgets for pinned notes, recent notes, or a new note. Notes sync through your private iCloud database. Noter has no account, no analytics and no server of mine in the middle. Noter for Mac is free and open source at github.com/hex/Noter. It keeps your notes as a row of dots on the edge of the screen, and has a command line and an MCP server, so coding agents can read and write notes too.
