What app do you use to save references or links

I often find myself something interesting on tiktok as I'm a heavy shopper, and the only way I save it is by send the link to my whatsapp (basically message myself). I'm sure there are apps out there where I can copy the link and drop it to save. Any recommendations please? I'd definitely like it to be locally saving only, don't want to hook up my cloud account or pay for backups.

If you are into selfhosting, you can use the linkwarden app. It’s pretty good.

Markor not available in google play? using android 13 and can't find it in play

No. It is available at the f-droid link that I included. Or at github if you prefer.

There are many apps that can be used to save links, from notes apps to list apps to dedicated links apps. Really anything that you can share to that allows for adding to an existing document/file would work. I have set up a couple of documents in my notes app of choice - Markor - and share to them depending upon the link source. Works great for me because the markdown links automatically open in the appropriate app when I click on them in the documents. A few dedicated links apps that I've tried in the past, none of which made me give up my existing method, but may suit you: LinkHub Deepr Linkor Linkzary

Raindrop.io but it's not local.

Try out http://sendlinks.app/dashboard also has a share direct to telegram option which is super useful.

You can try this: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.yogeshpaliyal.deepr You can take Backups in CSV file or a text file no cloud needed. But you do have to pay if you want to upload your backup to Google drive(which you must not).

I use TaskLoco and it’s companion Chrome extension https://www.taskloco.com) Get it on Google Play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.taskloco.lite Why TaskLoco? TaskLoco is a little different than other To‑Do/Task/Calendar Management apps because it is completely based on the world famous sticky note. That makes it a visual experience which I feel is how humans think. I designed the lite version to be zero friction and pure productivity. No learning curve. It's a sticky note. No sign‑in needed. No network connection required. Private. All the sticky notes stay on your device. Offline capable, airplane mode ready. So, if you know what a sticky note is you are already a TaskLoco expert
