What is it ?
This app can help you organize the good articles in the social platform. Not only is it a bookmark, but it also allows you to quickly find and efficiently organize your articles. In short, it helps you to be more efficient, so you can spend more time on reading.
Why do I choose it
For now overload In the mobile world, the reading scene on cell phones is so fragmented that it is difficult for us to read the content we are interested in as soon as we come across it. so my key question is“ what if user had easy access to the important content thet had bookmarked?

INSIGHTS
- All of them spend at least ten hours a day online.
- They basically spend fragments of time looking at social media.
- Five of them bookmark a lot of things every day.
- Four of them have more than 1,000 bookmarked articles or videos, and the others have at least a few hundred.
- Four of them have more than 6 app bookmarked things, and the rest have at least 3 apps.
- They bookmarked things that they were usually interested in or related to their work or study.
- They forgot what they have bookmarked because there are too many to find, or they forget they have bookmarked it.
- All of them will repeatedly look at the bookmarked content because they can't remember it once.
META INSIGHTS
-
Most of my interviewees are used
to bookmark the content they are interested in first and read it slowly when
they have time.
-
And they like to bookmark useful
articles and find them at their convenience when they need them. “Somethings
are bookmarked, not to be read, but to be found when you're in need.”
-
For most of them bookmarking is not the problem,
not reading is the key. Not finding the right time and scene to absorb their
favorites

Categorize by theme is better
A more convenient approach is needed when importing links in large numbers
Automatically categorize articles according to keywords after importing them
Related reading recommendations are better at the end
Add the option to listen to articles in the article reading page.

Import link
Let's assume that now a link has been copied, then the user opens the app and there will be a pop-up window to save the link directly, and the user can choose to put it in a group.
Filter and sorting
First of all, there are some small tags below to make it more straightforward for the user to see the results of the filter.
Next, click on the button to enter the filter and Sort page, in which users can filter by reading status, or adding time and ect.
Then users can click on the plus button to add a new folder, they can easily change to night mode.
User can also click Edit Folder, where they can add new folders, and swipe left to
combine two folders, change names, or delete folders very easily
