How StartPage works

StartPage is a home page made of your bookmarks, plus the bookmarks of people you follow.

Your lists

Favorites: The sites you pin with the star. They stay in the order you choose: drag the handle on the left of each one to move it.
Frequent: Your most-opened bookmarks, counted each time you open one from StartPage.
Recent: Everything you've saved, newest first, or ordered by when you last opened it. Choose in Settings or below the list.
Feed: New public bookmarks from the people you follow. Only you see your feed.
Tags: Group bookmarks by topic. Add tags when you save or edit a bookmark. Your tags are yours: only you see them.

Saving bookmarks

Add button (or + on phones): paste an address and StartPage fills in the name and description.
From someone's list: tap Save next to any of their links.
Bookmarklet: on a computer, drag the Add to StartPage button (on this page, or in Settings → App & tools) to your bookmarks bar.
Android share sheet: after installing StartPage, choose StartPage from any app's Share menu.

Privacy

A private bookmark () is only visible to you.
Protected accounts (Settings → Account) only show bookmarks to followers you approve.
Your email is never shown to anyone.

Install the app

Tap Install on the bar at the top of your lists. On iPhone, StartPage shows you how to add it to your Home Screen with Safari's Share button. Once it's been used or cleared with ×, the bar stays hidden on that device; Settings → App & tools can bring it back.

Light and dark

StartPage follows your device's light or dark setting. To always use one, choose Light or Dark in Settings → Preferences.

Keyboard shortcuts

n: Add a bookmark
