Bookmarks
Keep pages of courses and lectures and open them in one tap; with Pro your bookmarks are the same on every device.
To get back to a course or a lecture without remembering its address, save the page to Video Tracker bookmarks. A bookmark is an address and a name; one address — one bookmark. Newest first. Bookmarks are kept on the device for everyone, and with Pro they are the same on all your devices and in the extension.
Add and remove a bookmark
Where: Mac and Android · Plan: Free and Pro
- Open the page in the built-in browser.
- Tap ☆ in the address bar — the star becomes ★, a bookmark with the page title comes first in the list, and “Added to bookmarks” appears at the bottom.
To remove the bookmark, tap ★ on that page — “Removed from bookmarks” with Undo.
On a Mac it is the same — ☆ next to the address, ⌘D or the Bookmarks › Add to bookmarks menu.
Pages that are not from the web (an error, a blank page) have no ☆.
The bookmark list
Where: Mac and Android · Plan: Free and Pro
Tap Bookmarks (the book icon) in the address bar.
On a Mac — Bookmarks in the toolbar or ⌥⌘B.- The list shows the name and the site, newest first; with more than 8 bookmarks there is Search bookmarks by name and address.
- Tapping a bookmark opens the page in the built-in browser and closes the list.
- Rename changes the bookmark's name.
- Delete (a swipe or the menu) removes it at once; for a few seconds you can press Undo.
An empty list says “No bookmarks yet” and how to add one.
Suggestions in the address bar
Where: Mac and Android · Plan: Free and Pro
Start typing part of a bookmark's name or address in the address bar — up to 5 matching bookmarks appear under it; tap one to open it. An empty address bar shows your latest bookmarks.
Bookmarks in the extension
Where: Chrome and Safari · Plan: Free and Pro
- Open the Bookmarks section in the panel.
- To save the current tab, press Add this page.
- Clicking a bookmark opens it in a new tab; Delete comes with Undo.
There is search and the same list (with Pro — from your other devices). The extension does not touch the browser's own bookmarks: this is a separate Video Tracker list.
Sync with Pro
Where: Mac, Android, Chrome, and Safari · Plan: Pro
Add, rename or delete a bookmark on one device — you see it there at once, and the change goes to the server in the background. Your other devices and the extension get it:
- when the app starts and when you return to it (in the extension — when the panel opens);
- every 15 minutes;
- after you sign in.
Under the list you see “Synced · 12:30” or “Syncing…”.
- Offline, changes pile up and go out when the network is back. You see “Couldn't sync — will retry by itself” and Details; bookmarks keep working.
- One bookmark changed on two devices — the later change wins.
- The first Pro sign-in on a device that already has bookmarks merges them with the account's bookmarks; the same addresses become one bookmark.
Without Pro
Where: Mac, Android, Chrome, and Safari · Plan: Free and Pro
Signed out or on Free, bookmarks work on this device only. Under the list — “On your other devices — with Pro” and a sign-in button (or Buy Pro where Pro can be bought).
- Pro has ended — bookmarks stay, the exchange is paused: “Bookmark sync is part of Pro: bookmarks stay on this device”. Pro again — sync continues from where it stopped.
- Sign out keeps the bookmarks on the device.
How many bookmarks
No more than 5000. At that point ☆ no longer adds and you see “Too many bookmarks (5000): delete the ones you no longer need”.
