Safari Extension
Clicking the Safari toolbar extension signs you in when needed and saves the current page URL to Teak when you are signed in.
Auto-Save on Open
When you open either extension popup, Teak automatically saves the current page. The popup shows whether the page was saved, was already in your library, or cannot be saved.
In Chrome and Chromium browsers, choose Upload file in the popup to save a supported local file up to 100 MB.
Chrome and Chromium Features
Context Menu
Right-click anywhere on a page to access quick-save actions:
| Menu item | What it saves |
|---|---|
| Save Page to Teak | The current URL |
| Save Text to Teak | The selected text (creates a text card) |
| Save Asset to Teak | A safely downloadable image, video, audio, or file |
Context menu saves are available on standard web pages. Teak does not attempt to download local, private-network, file:, or blob: URLs; use Upload file when you own a local file.
Social Media Inline Save Buttons
On supported sites, Teak injects a save button directly into each post or story. You can save individual items without leaving the feed.
| Platform | Supported content |
|---|---|
| instagram.com | Posts and Reels |
| pinterest.com | Pins |
| x.com | Posts (tweets) — saved with tweet text, author, and attached images or videos |
| news.ycombinator.com | Story links (saves the outbound article URL) |
| sidebar.io | Story links |
| webdesignernews.com | Story links |
| heydesigner.com | Story links |
Inline save buttons appear automatically once you are signed in to the extension. Each saved post is deduplicated — saving the same post twice will not create a duplicate card.
Free Tier Limit
When you reach your free plan card limit, the Chrome extension popup shows an upgrade prompt instead of saving. Click Upgrade to Pro to open Teak Settings.
Sign In
In Safari, choose Sign in to complete authentication in the Teak web app. In Chrome and Chromium-based browsers, the popup provides Login and Create Account actions that open the web app in a new tab.
