Link Capture

Features
Read full description

Stop retyping links you see in screenshots. LinkCapture reads the URLs right out of your images and saves them as tidy, searchable bookmarks — all on your device, no account required. Point it at a screenshot, a photo, or something on your clipboard, and LinkCapture uses Apple's on-device text recognition to pull out every link it finds. One image with three links becomes three bookmarks. Emails are detected too. Then it offers something no camera roll does: once your link is safe, delete the source image and reclaim the storage. **WHAT YOU CAN DO** • Extract links from screenshots, photos, the camera, or the clipboard • Get every URL in an image at once — save one bookmark per link • See every link with its site's favicon, in a list or a grid • Organize with colorful, icon-tagged categories • Search and filter your whole collection instantly • Browse a Recents timeline grouped by date • Open links in an in-app browser, or copy and share them • Automatically strip tracking clutter (?fbclid=…, utm_…) off every link • Detect email addresses, file them in their own category, and pick which mail app opens them • Edit a saved link anytime — or add one to a "no-link" capture • Back up your links and categories to iCloud • Reclaim storage by deleting the source photo — now or later **SHARE SHEET BUILT IN** Send an image to LinkCapture straight from Photos, Safari, or any app via the Share sheet. It extracts the links and saves them without leaving what you were doing. **PRIVATE BY DESIGN** Extraction and storage happen entirely on your iPhone or iPad — no servers, no account, and your bookmarks and images never leave your device. Favicons are fetched directly from each site, not a third-party icon service. LinkCapture is free to use with ads; subscribe to Pro to remove them. _(with ads)_ **PRO — GO DEEPER** Some links wrap across multiple lines in a screenshot. LinkCapture Pro reconstructs those full, deep links automatically, removes ads, and adds 100 extractions to your balance every month. $4.99/month — cancel anytime. Start with 30 free extractions. Grab a pack whenever you need more. LinkCapture Pro is an auto-renewable subscription: $4.99 (USD) per month, billed to your Apple Account. It renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

When your brain sees "clean the kitchen" and freezes, you need more than a to-do list. Steady Tasks uses AI to turn any vague, overwhelming task into a clear sequence of micro-steps you can actually start. Designed for ADHD and autistic adults who live with executive dysfunction, Steady Tasks bridges the gap between "I know I need to do it" and "I am doing step one." AI-Powered Task Breakdown Speak or type any task and Steady Tasks generates a personalized sequence of micro-steps matched to your current overwhelm level. Adjustable depth means you get as much detail as you need — nothing more, nothing less. Voice-First Capture When you are already overwhelmed, typing is too much. Tap and speak — Steady Tasks transcribes and breaks down your task hands-free, without requiring you to type a single word. Native Reminders and Calendar Sync Every micro-step can be sent directly to Apple Reminders or your Calendar with one tap. No copy-paste, no friction between the plan and the doing. Tone That Works for You Choose encouraging, neutral, or direct language. The app meets you where you are, not where it expects you to be. Timers, Templates, and Shortcuts Built-in per-step timers keep you moving. Save recurring routines as templates. Trigger any workflow from Siri Shortcuts and auto-activate a Focus mode to protect your work time. Offline and Always Ready Previously generated breakdowns are available offline so you can review and reuse your steps even without a connection. Whether you are a student trying to start an assignment, a professional who cannot begin a project, or a parent managing a household, Steady Tasks removes every friction point between stuck and started. Download free and try your first task breakdowns today. Upgrade to Steady Tasks Premium for unlimited breakdowns, voice input, Reminders and Calendar sync, saved templates, and full iOS integrations.
