🚀Getting Started
What is Link Hooker?▼
Link Hooker is a personal link organizer and Progressive Web App (PWA) that lets you save any URL - from WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube, or your browser - into a single searchable library. Pro+ subscribers also get a full Task Manager to turn saved links into actionable tasks with deadlines, smart inbox, NLP quick capture, and repeating schedules.
Do I need to download an app? What is a PWA?▼
No download or app store required. Link Hooker is a Progressive Web App (PWA) - a website that installs directly onto your home screen. On iOS, visit linkhooker.com in Safari, tap the Share button, and select "Add to Home Screen." On Android, open it in Chrome and tap "Add to Home Screen" from the browser menu. It will look and behave exactly like a native app.
How do I create an account?▼
Visit linkhooker.com and tap "Sign In." You can sign up instantly with your Google account - no password required. One-click sign-in means you are up and running in seconds.
What browsers does Link Hooker support?▼
Link Hooker works in all modern browsers. For the best PWA experience (add to home screen), use Safari on iOS and Chrome on Android.
Does Link Hooker work on desktop?▼
Yes. Link Hooker has a full-featured desktop dashboard. Save, browse, search, and organize all your hooks from any computer browser at linkhooker.com.
🔗Saving & Managing Hooks
How do I save a link (hook)?▼
Copy any URL and open Link Hooker. Paste it into the save bar and tap the Hook button. Link Hooker automatically fetches the page title, description, and OG preview image. Optionally add a personal note and assign it to a folder before saving.
Can I save links from WhatsApp, Instagram, and YouTube?▼
Yes. Copy any link from WhatsApp self-chat, Instagram DMs, YouTube videos, or any other source, and paste it into Link Hooker. The app works with any URL from any platform.
What information is automatically pulled when I save a link?▼
Link Hooker automatically fetches the page title, meta description, and OG (Open Graph) preview image. This gives every hook a rich visual card so you can instantly recognize what it is without opening the link. Rich OG image previews are available on Pro and Pro+ plans.
Can I add personal notes to a hook?▼
Yes. Every hook has a personal notes field where you can write why you saved it, what you want to do with it, or any other context. These notes are fully searchable.
How do I edit or delete a hook?▼
Open any hook and tap the three-dot menu or the edit icon to modify the title, URL, notes, folder, or type. To delete, select the delete option and confirm. You can undo a deletion immediately after it happens.
Can I undo a deletion?▼
Yes. Link Hooker shows an undo option right after you delete a hook so you can instantly restore it if you deleted it by mistake.
What is the difference between Archive and Delete?▼
Archiving hides a hook from your main library without permanently removing it - it is stored in your archive and can be restored at any time. Deleting permanently removes the hook, though you have a brief window to undo it immediately afterward.
📁Folders & Organization
How do folders work?▼
Folders let you group related hooks into broad categories - like "Work," "Design," "Read Later," or "Recipes." When you save a hook, you can assign it to a folder. You can also move existing hooks between folders at any time.
How many folders can I create?▼
Basic plan users can create up to 2 folders. Pro and Pro+ subscribers get unlimited folders.
Can I move a hook to a different folder?▼
Yes. Open any hook and edit it to reassign it to a different folder, or use the "Fix Miscategorised" option to quickly correct a hook's folder.
What is the "Uncategorized Hooks" folder?▼
Any hook you save without assigning a folder is automatically placed in "Uncategorized Hooks." It acts as a default inbox so nothing gets lost. You can organize these hooks into proper folders at any time.
🔍Search & Filtering
How does search work?▼
Link Hooker's search indexes every hook by its title, URL, your personal notes, and description. Type any keyword and matching hooks appear instantly. This means you can find a hook by what the page is about, not just what you typed when you saved it.
What is the difference between Basic Search and Advanced Search?▼
Basic Search (all plans) lets you search by keyword across titles, URLs, and notes. Advanced Search (Pro and Pro+) adds the ability to filter by day, date, year, and content type, so you can narrow results even in a very large library.
Can I filter hooks by type (video, article, etc.)?▼
Yes. The type filter lets you narrow your hooks by content type - for example, show only videos, reels, articles, or tools. This is available on all plans.
Can I sort my hooks?▼
Yes. Basic and Pro plans include standard sorting. Pro and Pro+ add Advanced Sorting options for more fine-grained control over the order your hooks appear.
⭐Stars, Archive & Bulk Actions
How do I star a hook?▼
Tap the star icon on any hook card to mark it as a favourite. Starred hooks are easily accessible from the Starred filter so you can always find your most important hooks instantly.
What does archiving a hook do?▼
Archiving moves a hook out of your main library into an archive view. The hook is not deleted - it is preserved and can be restored at any time. Archive is useful for hooks you no longer need quick access to but do not want to delete permanently.
What are Bulk Actions and how do I use them?▼
Bulk Actions (Pro and Pro+ only) let you select multiple hooks at once and perform operations - such as moving them to a folder, archiving them, or deleting them - in a single step. Enable bulk selection mode, choose your hooks, and pick the action you want to apply.
💳Plans & Billing

📱Mobile & PWA
How is the mobile experience different from desktop?▼
Link Hooker's mobile interface follows iOS native app standards for touch targets, text sizes, and navigation. The experience is optimized for one-handed use with swipe gestures, a back-to-top button, and swipe guard to prevent accidental actions.
Can I use Link Hooker offline?▼
Link Hooker requires an internet connection to save new hooks and sync your library. As a PWA, the app shell loads quickly even on slower connections, but saving and searching require connectivity.
Why does the app look different on mobile compared to desktop?▼
Link Hooker uses a responsive design that adapts its layout for mobile and desktop. On mobile, you get a compact, touch-friendly interface. On desktop, you get a comprehensive dashboard with more information visible at once.
🛠️Troubleshooting
I cannot sign in to my account. What should I do?▼
Make sure you are using the same Google account you used to sign up. Try clearing your browser cache and cookies, or try signing in from an incognito window. If the issue persists, contact support.
My hooks are not syncing across devices.▼
Ensure you are connected to the internet and signed in with the exact same Google account on both devices. Try pulling down to refresh or restarting the app.
The OG image preview is not showing for a saved link.▼
Sometimes the website does not provide an OG image, or our servers were temporarily blocked from fetching it. Rich OG previews are also a Pro and Pro+ feature.
I accidentally deleted a hook and missed the undo button. Can I get it back?▼
Unfortunately, once a hook is permanently deleted and the undo window has passed, it cannot be recovered. We recommend using the Archive feature instead for links you might need later.
