## Key features

- **Native apps with iCloud sync:** Anybox runs as native apps on iPhone, iPad and Mac and syncs through Apple's CloudKit. The vendor says no personal data is collected.
- **Quick Find and Quick Save:** Quick Find is a Spotlight-like panel, opened with a global shortcut, that searches bookmarks offline and opens or shares them. Quick Save captures the current browser tab with its details.
- **Anydock:** A floating, Dock-like bookmarks bar on the Mac desktop, also available as a menu bar icon. It holds 12 links on the free version and 30 on Pro.
- **Nested tags, folders and Smart Lists:** Bookmarks are categorized with nested tags and folders, and Smart Lists gather them automatically by attributes such as URL and date added.
- **Archives and other data types:** A bookmark can be archived as a PDF, a web archive or a screenshot, and notes, images and files can be saved alongside links.
- **Automation and MCP server:** Siri Shortcuts, AppleScript and URL schemes automate saving and opening links, and the Mac app includes a local MCP server so AI agents can search and save items.

## Good for

- Mac, iPhone and iPad users replacing a browser's bookmark manager
- People who want keyboard-driven search across saved links

## Worth knowing

- The free version stops at 50 saved links in total; unlimited links need Pro.
- Sync runs through iCloud only, so every device must be signed in to the same iCloud account.
- The FAQ says there is no education discount or any other special offer.
