How to save links on iPhone — and find them again.

Choose the kind of return you want.

A restaurant you might visit, an article you want to read and a recipe you want to cook are different kinds of intention. Start with what you expect to do with the link.

Save a website as a Safari bookmark.

Bookmarks suit pages you expect to visit repeatedly: a useful reference, a favourite shop or the website of a place you want to remember.

1. Open the webpage in Safari.
2. In the compact layout, open More and choose Add Bookmark to.
3. Choose the location for the bookmark, then save it.

With Safari’s Bottom or Top tab layout, Apple describes a different route: touch and hold the Bookmarks button, then choose Add Bookmark. Menu positions can vary with the iOS version and Safari layout. Apple’s bookmark instructions show the current options.

Choose a title that gives you a reason to reopen the page. “Small hotel near the station” may be more useful to you than a long website title.

Use Reading List for something you want to read.

Reading List is a good fit for an article you want to return to when you have time.

1. Open the article in Safari.
2. Open Share. In the compact layout, Share is inside the More menu.
3. Choose Add to Reading List.

To return to the article, open Safari’s Bookmarks and choose Reading List. If you need offline reading, enable Automatically Save Offline in Settings → Apps → Safari. Make sure the page has had a chance to save before you lose your connection. See Apple’s Reading List guide.

A read-later list works best when you actually revisit it. Pick a moment you already have: a train journey, a quiet morning or the end of your week.

Use Notes when you want to remember why.

A link sometimes needs one extra sentence: who recommended it, the weekend it would suit or the detail that made you save it.

1. Open the source app’s Share menu.
2. Choose Notes and select the note you want to add to.
3. Save, then add a short explanation in the note if you need one.

For example, a note called “A weekend by the sea” can hold a hotel link beside your own thoughts. Keep the address with those thoughts so you can reopen the actual source. Apple explains how to add a website or location to Notes.

Keep enough context to recognise a good find.

You do not need to describe every link in detail. Keep the smallest clue that will help your future self.

• For a recipe: the dish, a memorable ingredient or the occasion you have in mind.
• For a place: the city, the kind of visit and what interested you.
• For an idea: the problem it could help with and the next thing you might try.

These are habits we use to think about Revigo’s design, not a claim that any app can recover information you never saved. A useful clue and a working source link are a strong starting point.

If you save inside several social apps, decide where you will look first later. A saved post in one app and a browser bookmark in another are separate places to check. A screenshot can remind you of the image, but it may not keep a clickable path back to the post.

A saved link is not a permanent copy.

A bookmark keeps a route back to a source. It does not guarantee the source will stay public, unchanged or online. Social posts can be removed, websites can move and access may require a login.

For recipes, a link to a video is not the same as a complete written recipe. If the post does not provide ingredient quantities or instructions, do not assume a saving tool has verified them. Go back to the creator’s original material and check what is actually available.

If offline access matters, choose a method that explicitly saves an offline copy and test it before you need it. Revigo is not being presented as a video downloader or a permanent archive of every shared page.
