What it does

Saved links you actually come back to.

  • Save from anywhere

    Share a link to Stowly or paste it in. It fetches the title and source for you, and you can tap the title to rename it.

  • Collections that stay tidy

    File saves into collections like Recipes, Travel, or Reading, create new ones on the spot, or leave them in Unsorted for later.

  • Focus mode

    Swipe through new saves one at a time, and see at a glance how many saves you have never opened.

  • Notes, photos, and tags

    Add a note on why you saved something, attach a screenshot or photo, and tag saves so they are easy to find.

  • Pinned and recent

    Pin the saves you keep coming back to, browse recent ones by newest, and search across everything.

  • Every action in reach

    Pin, move, share, copy the link, or delete from any save, then open it straight in YouTube, Instagram, or the browser.

How it works

Three steps, no clutter.

  1. Save

    Share or paste a link. Stowly grabs the preview so you never have to type a title.

  2. Sort

    Pick a collection, add a note or tag, and save. Unsure? Unsorted holds it for later.

  3. Revisit

    Focus mode walks you through new saves, and pinned saves stay one tap away.
