LinkMate Is Coming to Android: Save Links Smarter, No Account Needed

We are about to publish our first app on the Google Play Store, and we wanted to share it here first.
It is called LinkMate. And if you have ever lost a link you meant to read, saved something in five different places, or wished your browser bookmarks were actually organized, this is for you.
Think about how many times you have sent yourself a link on WhatsApp. Or starred something in Chrome that you never found again. Or saved an article to "read later" on three different apps at the same time.
Browser bookmarks are a graveyard. Most read-later apps sync to servers you do not control. And the apps that do try to organize your links usually ask you to create an account, agree to a privacy policy you do not read, and trust them with every URL you save.
LinkMate does none of that.
Everything stays on your phone. No account. No sign-up. No sync to a cloud server. Your links are yours, stored locally using a database that only your device can access.
Here is what you get:
No subscription. No ads. No tracking.
This is the feature we are most proud of.
The Private Vault is a locked section of the app that only opens with your personal PIN code. What you store there is never uploaded anywhere. Not to our servers, not to anyone's cloud. The PIN is protected by Android's hardware-backed Keystore.
If you forget your PIN, the Vault data gets wiped. That is not a bug. That is the only design that actually guarantees your privacy. We cannot reset it remotely because we have no access to it in the first place.
The LinkMate Privacy Policy is published and public. Read exactly what data we handle (spoiler: almost none).
LinkMate is currently in closed testing on the Google Play Store. That means it is live, but only a limited number of testers can access it right now.
We expect the public launch to happen within the next 14 to 18 days.
If you want to be among the first people to use it, or if you want to help shape the final product by joining the closed testing group, you can reach us directly.
If you are a developer, a productivity nerd, or someone who just saves a lot of links and is tired of losing them, we would love your feedback before the public launch.
Beta testers get early access, and your feedback directly influences what we fix and what we build next.
To join beta testing, send an email with the subject line "LinkMate Beta" and we will add your Google account to the testing group on Play Store:
Not ready to test but want to know the moment LinkMate goes live? Send us your email and we will notify you the day it hits the Play Store.
To get the launch notification, send an email with the subject line "Notify Me: LinkMate":
We do not add you to any marketing list. We send one email when the app is live. That is it.
LinkMate is a product built by PixelPlot, our studio that designs and engineers mobile apps, AI-powered features, and workflow automations.
We built LinkMate for ourselves first. Saving links across browsers, WhatsApp chats, and notes apps got old. We wanted something that worked offline, respected privacy, and did not require handing over a Google sign-in to a company we had never heard of.
If you build apps yourself and want to read about the technical decisions we made, we wrote a separate post on the engineering side: how we built the offline storage, the vault security model, and the OpenGraph preview system.
Watch this space. Launch is close.
Yes. LinkMate is free to download and use, with no ads and no subscription. All features are included at no cost.
Yes. All core features work offline. The only thing that requires internet is fetching the preview card (title, image) when you first save a URL. Once fetched, the preview is cached locally and works completely offline.
LinkMate supports Android 6.0 (API 23) and above. It covers the vast majority of Android devices in active use today.
Send an email to pixelplot.app@gmail.com with the subject line "LinkMate Beta" and include the Google account email you use on your Android device. We will add it to the Play Store testing group and you will receive an invite link.
We are currently in closed testing. The public launch is expected within 14 to 18 days from the date of this post. Follow PixelPlot or send your email to get notified the day it goes live.
