About Clipfile

Clipfile is a private, offline-friendly read-later app for people who actually go back and read. Save any page from Safari, Chrome, or your Mac, then read it later — online or off. Add notes, let it organize itself, and keep everything in sync across your devices without ever creating an account. SAVE FROM ANYWHERE • A real Safari extension on iPhone and Mac — saves the true article link even on news and paywalled-style pages • Chrome extension for your desktop • One tap from the share sheet READ OFFLINE • Save the full article body, not just the URL • Read on planes, subways, and dead zones • Article text is end-to-end encrypted — only your devices can decrypt it BUILT FOR RESEARCH • Attach notes to anything you save • Automatic categories: News, Video, Dev, Social, Shopping, Govt • A home-screen widget for your reading list PRIVATE SYNC, NO ACCOUNT • Your list and notes sync across iPhone, Chrome, and Mac with a private key you control • No sign-up, no ads, no tracking MADE YOURS • Six themes: Sunset, Ocean, Forest, Dusk, Rose, Midnight New in Version 2.6: * Fresh new look and name that better fits the idea of research by clipping articles for future research. New in Version 2.4: * Bug fixes New in Version 2.3: * A new onboarding screen. New in Version 2.2: * A fresh new look, completely redesigned to look clean and fresh, and even a little faster. NEW in Version 2.1: • AI-organized folders — your saves are automatically sorted into folders within moments of saving, so your list stays tidy with zero manual tagging. Only the title and URL are ever used to classify — never the article body. Tap the folder icon anytime to switch between the flat list and grouped view. Version 2.0: • Offline reading. Save the whole article, not just the link. Read on the subway, on a plane, or anywhere with no signal. Article text is end-to-end encrypted — only your devices can read it. • New Safari extension. Save the page you're on right from Safari's toolbar — and it captures the real article link even on news sites and other tricky pages. • Now on Mac, too. A Safari extension for macOS joins the iPhone app and Chrome extension. • Auto-organized. Saves are sorted into News, Video, Dev, Social, Shopping, and Govt automatically. • Notes. Jot research notes on anything you save. • Private sync, no account. Your list and notes sync across devices with a private key — no sign-up, no tracking. • Six themes to make it yours.
