SaveNShare
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your videos, scattered across five apps — hard to recall where you saw them. You save a workout on TikTok, a recipe on Instagram, a tutorial on YouTube. A week later, you can't find any of them. Every platform saves separately, none of them talk to each other, and searching your chat history for "that link my friend sent" never works. SaveNShare fixes that. Save any video from YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitter/X, and Facebook — all in one place, organized the way you actually think. WITHOUT SAVENSHARE • Recipes end up split across 8 Instagram saves, 5 TikTok saves, and a few you texted to yourself • Workout videos pile up in one flat YouTube playlist, or worse, three unrelated ones — Chest, Bicep, Workout — because there's no way to nest them • A friend sends three restaurant picks in a chat, and two weeks later you're scrolling 400 messages up trying to find them • You save it, but a week later you can't remember why — was it "the 4pm one" or "the morning version"? WITH SAVENSHARE • Create playlists and sub-playlists so related videos actually live together — Workout → Chest, Workout → Bicep, not three flat unrelated lists • Save from YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook into one library, from any app, in one tap • Add a note to any video — "the 4pm one, not the morning version" — so future-you knows why you saved it • Share a whole playlist with a friend, not a link into the void — it lands in their library and stays there BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY SAVE THINGS PLAYLIST → SUB-PLAYLIST. Fitness → Stretching, Abs, Yoga. Nutrition → Recipes, Meal Prep. Two levels, so you can be specific without turning it into a filing project — and videos can sit in the parent or the sub, so nothing gets forced into a category it doesn't belong in. NEVER LOSE A SHARED VIDEO AGAIN When a friend sends you a video, it lands in your Shared inbox with their name attached — not buried in a chat thread. Watch it inline, then move it to a playlist when you're ready. Download SaveNShare and start building your personal video library today.

Pull to refresh. Actually pull. Pick the apps that eat your day, give them an allowance, and when it runs out they lock. To get back in, you do reps. The camera counts them on your phone. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose the apps. Instagram, TikTok, X, games — whatever you actually lose hours to. 2. Set the allowance. So many minutes a day, a few minutes an hour, or nothing at all. 3. Run out, and they shut. 4. Do a set. Push-ups, sit-ups, squats, pull-ups or jumping jacks. 5. Spend what you earned, on whichever app you were reaching for. THE COUNTING IS HONEST Reps are scored from your body's joint positions, not from your phone shaking in a pocket. A rep only counts on a full movement — down to depth and back — so half-reps score nothing, and the app tells you why instead of leaving you guessing. Shaking the phone pays exactly zero. Time is measured in real use of those apps, not on a clock. Put the phone down mid-scroll and the minutes you paid for wait for you — for at least half an hour, and four times as long as the unlock for bigger ones, up to 22 hours. NO VIDEO LEAVES YOUR PHONE Pose detection runs on the device. No video is recorded, stored or uploaded, and there is no account to make. iOS hands the app opaque tokens rather than names, so it can tell that you picked an app — never what you do inside it. What does leave goes through Apple: rep counts and badge progress to Game Center once you say yes, your name and numbers to the iCloud board if you join it, and a copy of your history to your own iCloud. IT COUNTS TWICE Finished sets can be saved to Health as workouts, so reps done here go to your Move ring and show up in Fitness with everything else. RACE SOMEONE Signed in to Game Center, you get its leaderboards — this week and all time — and nine badges to earn, under your Game Center name. Nothing is sent until you say yes. On iOS 26 and later, start a Rep Race with a friend from Game Center: the biggest single set done during the race wins. Not on Game Center? Join the iCloud board under any name you like; leaving deletes your row. PRO Free covers a whole working loop: one group of apps on a daily allowance, every exercise, rep counting, Health and the leaderboards. Forever. Pro makes the lock harder — it never makes it softer: - Strict mode. A rule you cannot switch off the moment you want to. Changing it costs a cooling-off period first, which is exactly when you would have caved. - Minutes per hour. Short check-ins instead of one long sitting. - As many rules as you like, with different limits for different apps. - Your whole history, with streaks. Money never buys screen time here; reps do. Pro is a subscription, renewing until cancelled, or a one-off payment for good. Manage or cancel any time in Settings. WORTH KNOWING Blocking uses Apple's Screen Time. You will be asked to grant it on first launch, and the camera when you do your first set. Deleting the app removes every lock, whatever you have bought — this is a speed bump you chose, not a cage.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SaveNShare at none against Pull to Refresh's 3. SaveNShare also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Pull to Refresh's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
