Stale: Read Your Saves
Not claimedStale is a read-later app that does more than collect links
By Vien Huynh · ProductivityWhy we expect it: Stale turns read-later saving into a clear follow-up habit with private local storage, no account, and a fair one-time Lifetime option.
In short
Stale: Read Your Saves is a read-later app for iOS that saves links from the Share Sheet or by hand, then sends reminders until each item is read, archived, or deleted. It suits people with long reading lists who want follow-up nudges, with quiet hours and adjustable timing. Stands out: data stays on the device, with no account or sign-in required.
Summary by Debuts, based on the App Store listing.About
Stale is a read-later app that does more than collect links. It reminds you to return until every saved item becomes a decision: read it, archive it, or delete it.
SAVE IN SECONDS
Save links directly from Safari and other apps using the iOS Share Sheet, or add a URL manually inside Stale.
REMINDERS THAT FOLLOW UP
Choose when the first reminder appears, how persistent Stale should be, and how many reminders you want to receive. Quiet hours keep reminders out of the night.
A FOCUSED READING INBOX
See unread, read, and archived links in one calm inbox. Links are automatically grouped by website so larger reading lists remain manageable.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your reading list and preferences are stored locally on your device. Stale requires no account and no sign-in.
FREE AND LIFETIME
The Free plan lets you save up to 5 links. A one-time Lifetime purchase unlocks unlimited saved links. Lifetime is not a subscription.
Features: • Save from the iOS Share Sheet • Add links manually • Automatic title and image retrieval • Adjustable reminder timing and tone • Quiet hours • Read and archive status • Automatic folders by website • Search saved links • English and Vietnamese • Restore Lifetime purchases through the App Store
