Molwee Support

Write to us

Tell us what happened and what you expected. Your iPhone or iPad model, the iOS version and the Molwee version (Settings → About) help. You do not need to send us your links.

Before you write

Most questions are answered below: saving from the share sheet, the widget, import and export, appearance, where your library lives, and Molwee Pro.

Moving from Pocket? There is a step-by-step guide.

Saving links

How do I save a link?

In any app that can share a link — Safari, YouTube, X, Reddit and the rest — tap Share, then choose Molwee. Inside Molwee you can also tap + on Saved and paste a link.

Molwee is not in my share sheet

In the share sheet, swipe the row of app icons to the end and tap More. Find Molwee in the list, then tap Edit to add it to your favourites so it comes first next time.

A saved link has no title or picture

Some sites do not share a title or a preview image, or block apps from reading them. The link is saved either way, and opens from Saved as usual. You can give it your own title on its page.

I saved the same link twice

Molwee keeps one copy. Saving a link again moves it back to the top of Saved.

Can I undo a delete?

Yes. Right after you delete a link, tap Undo at the bottom of the screen.

How do I add the widget?

Touch and hold an empty spot on your Home Screen.
Tap Edit, then Add Widget. On iOS 16 and 17, tap the + button instead.
Search for Molwee, pick a size and tap Add Widget, then Done.

How does the widget pick a link?

From the links you saved and have not archived. It favours the ones you starred, tagged, retitled, wrote a note on or opened before, leaves out anything you opened in the last 12 hours, and changes through the day.

How do I turn the Sunday reminder on or off?

Settings → Weekly digest → Sunday reminder. If iOS has notifications turned off for Molwee, Settings shows a button that takes you to the iOS Settings app.

Import, export and your library

How do I import links?

On Saved, tap ⋯, then Settings → Import…, and choose the file: a Pocket export, browser bookmarks (HTML), a CSV file with a url column, or a Molwee backup (JSON). Have a .zip? Tap it in the Files app first, then choose the CSV inside. Up to 50,000 links per file; links you already have are skipped.

How do I export or back up my links?

Settings → Export…, then pick a format:

CSV — Pocket-compatible; opens in other read-later apps. Notes are not included.
HTML — browser bookmarks; opens in Safari, Chrome and bookmark apps. Includes notes.
JSON — a full backup, for Molwee.

Nothing leaves your phone unless you share the file.

Where is my library stored?

On your iPhone or iPad, inside Molwee. There is no account, and Molwee has no server of its own. The privacy policy lists exactly what the app sends and where.

Does Molwee sync between devices?

Not today. Your library lives on your iPhone, and you can export a full backup at any time.

How do I delete everything?

Deleting the app deletes your library from the device. Export a backup first if you want to keep it.

How do I switch between light and dark?

Settings → Appearance: System, Light or Dark. System follows your iPhone. The widget follows your choice too.

Molwee Pro

What does Molwee Pro add, and how do I get it?

Remind me (a reminder for any link, with a note), Saved text (the text of the articles you save, readable offline) and Search inside articles. It is a one-time purchase with no subscription: Settings → Molwee Pro. Everything else in Molwee stays free.

I bought Pro on another iPhone or iPad

Open Settings → Molwee Pro and tap Restore Purchase, signed in with the same Apple Account. If it says “No purchase to restore.”, check which Apple Account the App Store uses.

It says “Waiting for approval.”

The purchase needs approval — for example through Ask to Buy, when a family organizer approves purchases. Pro turns on once it is approved.

My reminder did not arrive

Reminders are notifications, so iOS has to allow them for Molwee. If it does not, the Reminder sheet says “Notifications are off for Molwee.”, and Open Settings takes you to the iOS Settings app.

Saved text says “Not saved yet”

Molwee takes an article's text when there is a connection, and tries again later if the page could not be reached. Links you saved before buying Pro are taken only when you ask: on the Molwee Pro screen, under “Save the text of your … earlier links”, tap Start — and Stop whenever you like.

Saved text says “Couldn't be saved”

Some sites do not let apps read their articles — paid ones, for example. Video and social links, such as YouTube, X and Instagram, have no article text. Very large pages, and pages that could not be reached in three tries, are not saved either. The link itself is always saved.

Is Saved text in my backup?

No. The JSON backup holds your links and everything about them, but not the saved text of articles.
