Savario in 60 seconds

Watch the whole loop.

From share sheet to permanent snapshot to instant recall — one minute, no narration. Press play, spacebar to pause.

01 — Capture

If it has a share sheet,
it has a home.

From X, Reddit, YouTube, Safari — anywhere with a share button. Tap Share, pick Savario, and the link, title, and a full-text snapshot land in your library. Already filed, already searchable.

  1. 01

    Tap Share. Pick Savario.

    The share extension lives in every app you read in. No copy-pasting links into another place you'll forget.

  2. 02

    Pick a category — or don't.

    On-device classification files it into Technology, Life, Finance or your own categories. Override with one tap.

  3. 03

    It's saved. That's it.

    A full text snapshot is stored locally, so the article survives even if the original page disappears.

What actually gets saved — honestly.

FULL TEXT

Articles & blogs

Substack, Medium, blogs and news sites are saved as permanent full-text snapshots. Read offline, highlight, search every word.

LINK + COVER

Videos

YouTube, TikTok and more keep the link, cover and full description. Watch the original in the built-in web view, one tap away.

WHAT'S ALLOWED

Walled gardens

Some apps (like Reddit or Instagram) limit what any app can read. You keep the title, cover and description — and the original stays one tap away, in-app.

If full text can't be saved, Savario tells you so — never a blank page, never a silent failure. It also retries quietly in the background.

02 — Keep

Links die.
Snapshots don't.

When a page allows full text, every save keeps a permanent snapshot on your device. When the original gets deleted, paywalled, or taken down, your copy still reads beautifully — highlights and notes included. And when a platform doesn't allow extraction, you keep everything it allows, with the original one tap away.

The design details nobody notices until they are gone

Your snapshot

When you save something, you are making a small promise to your future self: this mattered, and I want to find it again. The tools that respect that promise are the ones that stay out of the way. Save in one tap. Find in one search. Read without noise.

This is exactly why I saved it. My note

Snapshots, highlights and notes live in Savario's local database — readable offline, exportable anytime, and immune to link rot.

03 — Recall

Find it the way
you remember it.

You won't remember the title. You'll remember "that thread about attention." Search covers titles, notes, tags and the full text of every snapshot — with on-device semantic matching on top.

And the rest

Everything a library needs.

The quiet machinery that keeps a growing collection useful — all included, all on-device.

Highlights & notes

Mark up any snapshot — highlight, bold, annotate. Your margin notes are searchable too.

Review & reminders

A daily local reminder resurfaces what you saved, so your library doesn't become a graveyard.

Dust-off cleanup

Saves you never opened get surfaced after 90 days. Keep them or clear them in one pass.

Stats & reading persona

A 30-day chart, category breakdown, and a shareable report of what kind of reader you are.

Home-screen widget

Today's review queue and your unreviewed count, one glance from the Home Screen.

Export everything

Markdown or CSV, anytime. Pro adds a complete archive backup you can restore anywhere.

Privacy, by architecture

Your library.
Your device.

We can't read your articles. We can't train on them. We can't lose them in a breach. Not by policy — by architecture.

  1. 01

    Stored on-device, period.

    Your full library — titles, text snapshots, notes, tags — lives in Savario's local database and your iCloud backup, if you enable it. There is no Savario cloud.

  2. 02

    Intelligence without upload.

    Classification, tagging and semantic search all run on Apple silicon, on your device. The network is never on the path between your reading and the tools that organize it.

  3. 03

    No account required.

    No sign-up, no email, no phone number. Your library is identified by the device it lives on — nothing else.

  4. 04

    Exportable, forever.

    A complete archive of your library — every save, note and tag — exports as a single file you can back up and restore yourself. No lock-in, ever.

FAQ

Questions, honestly answered.

Where does my data actually live?

On your iPhone. Titles, text snapshots, highlights, notes and tags live in Savario's local database, plus your encrypted iCloud backup if you enable it. There is no Savario server that stores your content.

What happens if the original page disappears?

Nothing bad. Every save keeps a full-text snapshot on your device, so the page stays readable — with your highlights and notes — even after the original is deleted, paywalled, or taken down.

Why can't some saves show their full text?

Because the platform doesn't let any app read it — login walls (like Instagram or Reddit) and anti-scraping pages block extraction. When that happens, Savario keeps everything the platform allows — title, cover, description — says so plainly instead of showing a blank page, and keeps the original one tap away in the built-in web view. It also retries quietly in the background, and the save stays fully searchable and exportable either way.

Do I need an account?

No. No sign-up, no email, no password. Download the app and your library starts on the first save.

Does it work offline?

Yes — completely. Browsing, searching and reading all work without a connection. Saving a link only needs the page's text at share time.

Does Savario use AI?

Only the on-device kind. Classification, tag suggestions and semantic search run locally on Apple silicon. Your content is never uploaded, never analyzed by a server, and never used to train anything.

What's the catch with lifetime pricing?

There isn't one. Because there is no server to run, Savario has no per-user monthly cost — so one-time pricing is sustainable. Pay once, and every Pro feature stays yours.

Can I export everything?

Yes. Every save exports to Markdown or CSV for free. Pro adds a complete archive backup — snapshots, highlights, notes and tags in one portable file. Back it up, move devices, or leave entirely. Your data is yours.
