What can I save to Capture?
Links, notes, plain text, messages, images, screenshots, videos, audio, and PDFs — from the share sheet, the clipboard, the home-screen widget, or a text selection. Any file type is accepted; nothing is silently dropped.
FAQ
Capture questions and answers
Answers to common questions about Capture, privacy, on-device semantic search, platforms, and the core save-and-recall workflow.
Does Capture work offline and stay private?
Yes. Your library is stored locally on your device, and semantic search runs on-device. Nothing is uploaded and there's no account to create.
How does search work?
Capture combines full-text search with a natural-language query parser that turns phrases like “pdfs from twitter last week” into filters, plus on-device semantic search that finds items by meaning even when you don't remember the exact words.
Can I move my data in and out?
Yes. Import your browser bookmarks from Safari, Chrome, or Firefox, and export to JSON, HTML, Markdown, or CSV whenever you like. Import and export are always free and never paywalled.
Do I need an account or a subscription?
No account, ever. Capture is free to use with a generous library limit. Premium unlocks an unlimited library, on-device semantic search, and sync through your own iCloud or Google Drive.
What platforms does Capture support?
Capture is a mobile app for iOS and Android. There's no web or desktop version today — it's designed to live where you already save things.
Capture is an instant save-anything app with on-device semantic search. Save links, notes, messages, and screenshots to one calm place, then find them again by meaning — all running privately on your phone.
