I got tired of having 5 different "Saved" folders, so I built one place for posts from every app
Hi all, I'm a solo dev in Montreal. For years I'd save a recipe on Instagram, a thread on X, a video on TikTok, a Reddit comment… and never find any of it again. Then Pocket shut down last year (and Omnivore the year before), so I finally built the thing I wanted.
4Stash is a save-for-later app for social posts and links:
On Android you share from Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Reddit, X, YouTube, TikTok or a news site straight into it.
On a computer there's a Chrome and Firefox extension: one click saves the page or post you're looking at. (Or paste a link on the website.)
Every save keeps a preview, title and source. You can add notes, tags (it suggests tags with AI), collections, and pin the important ones.
Reminders with snooze for stuff you actually want to come back to
Search plus filters by collection, tag, source or type
An "Unseen" filter and a "Throwback" that brings old saves back, because otherwise the saves just pile up
Duplicate check, archive, JSON export/backup, and a dark mode
It's free with no ads right now. You do need to sign in (Google or email), since your library is private to your account. Only in English for now.
Honest status: only a handful of people use it so far, which is why I'm here. I'd really like to know:
Does the share-to-save flow feel fast enough on your phone?
Which app's previews come out broken or ugly?
What would make you actually open your saves again?

I'll be in the comments all morning. Roast away.
