Link Catcher

Type a keyword in your search bar and jump straight to your saved link. Private, local, no tracking.

Link Catcher is a fast, private launcher for the pages you open every day. Pair a short word with a web address, for example "gh" for your code repository. Next time, type it in your search bar, or in the address bar after "l" and a space: you land on your page right away, before any results appear. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Open a saved page with one exact word, whatever the capitalisation or accents • Get live suggestions in the address bar as you type • Give one page several names at once, such as "docs, d" • Find, sort and reorder your list, in list or grid view • Back up and restore everything as a JSON file, with a choice when two names collide • Pick a light or dark look and one of four interface languages • Open the manager with Alt+Shift+L • Choose where unknown words are looked up PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no analytics, no tracking and no remote code. Everything stays in your browser, and is synced by the browser itself only if you turned sync on. Link Catcher asks for two permissions only: "storage", to save your list, and "webNavigation", to notice a web search locally so it can redirect you. It never reads the content of the pages you visit. GETTING STARTED Click the Link Catcher icon and open the "Add New" tab. Enter a short name (for example gh) and an address (for example github.com). Search for exactly that word, or type l + Space + the word in the address bar.
