Pinmate – Your Pinboard Companion
Save smarter. Search faster. Stay in flow.
Pinmate is the modern Pinboard companion: add from anywhere, enrich links with metadata,
and browse your personal, popular, or network feeds with fast search and smart tag suggestions.
Why Pinmate
- Save everywhere: Share extension, clipboard quick-add, and in-app add flow keep your links flowing in seconds.
- Smart tags: HTML-head parsing suggests relevant tags instantly; tap to apply with wrapped chips.
- Powerful feeds: Browse your bookmarks, Popular, and Network with per-feed caching, filtering, and search.
- Local network: Build your own list of people from user feeds, merge Pinboard Network + Local Network, and manage everything via Members.
- iCloud settings: Optional “Store settings in iCloud” toggle + “Restore from iCloud” so your setup (including API token) survives reinstalls.
- HTTPS upgrade tool: Scan HTTP bookmarks, check if HTTPS works, upgrade one-by-one or all at once, and optionally delete links without a working HTTPS variant.
- Feed summary banner: Toggle the top summary card (last refresh + item count) on/off across all feeds (including user feeds).
- User-Agent setting: Choose Pinmate or Safari for metadata and tag fetching (also used in debug analysis).
- Pinboard-native: API token login, private/unread defaults, and reliable adds to pinboard.in with replace support.
- Offline-friendly: Cached lists show instantly; refresh when network is available. Errors include retry actions.
- Localized: Fully localized in English and Dutch, matching platform tint and accessibility best practices.
