The Teak app lets you save inspiration on the go, capture voice notes, upload files, and browse your full library on iPhone and iPad, synced in real time with your other devices.

## Requirements

- iPhone or iPad running iOS or iPadOS 26 or newer
- A Teak account

## Install

Download the app from the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/teak-save-inspirations/id6756574989) and sign in with your Teak account.

## Sign In

On first launch, choose **Continue with Apple** or **Continue with Google**, or use **Login with Email** or **Register with Email** to finish on the Teak sign-in page.

## Saving Content

Open the **Add** tab to save new content manually:

| Action              | What it does                                                    |
| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Note or Link**    | Type or paste any text or link                                  |
| **Voice Memo**      | Record a voice note; Teak auto-transcribes it                   |
| **Photos & Videos** | Pick up to 20 photos or videos at once                          |
| **Camera**          | Take a photo or video                                           |
| **Files**           | Pick up to 20 documents or other files at once                  |

If you reach the Free plan's card limit, Teak tells you before saving.

## Your Library

**Home** shows your cards, newest first, with more columns on iPad. Search by words or by when you saved something, such as "last week" or "March 2026". Words like "image", "favorites", or a color turn into filters in the search bar; press Return to add one.

Tap the filter button to show **Favorites**, open **Trash**, or narrow by **Type** (notes, links, images, and more) or **Color**. The title shows what you're looking at; choose **Clear Filters** to go back to everything.

Tap a card to open it. Notes show their formatting, links show their details (like price or rating) and any photos from the post, and documents show inline when they're Markdown or code. Tap **View Document** to read a PDF or other file. Tap a tag to search for it.

On iPad, a card's notes, tags, summary, and details sit in a panel beside it.

### Edit a card

Tap the pencil in a card's toolbar to edit it in one place: rewrite a note or quote, change its notes and tags, or remove tags Teak added. Tap **Save** when you're done.

### Trash and selecting cards

Deleting a card moves it to **Trash**, where it stays for 30 days. Open Trash from the filter button, then tap a card to **Restore** it or **Delete Forever**. You can also press and hold a card for the same actions. On iOS 27, swipe a card to favorite or delete it.

To act on several cards, tap the checkmark button (or press and hold a card and choose **Select**), tap the cards you want, then delete them, or restore or delete them forever in Trash. Tap **Done** to stop selecting.

## Share Sheet (Import from Other Apps)

Use the iOS Share Sheet to save content to Teak without leaving another app:

1. **Share from any app**

    In any app (Safari, Photos, Files, etc.), tap the **Share** button.

2. **Select Teak**

    Select **Teak** from the share destinations.

3. **Save automatically**

    The Teak share extension opens and saves the item automatically.

The share extension shows live status while saving. If it asks you to sign in, open Teak, sign in, then retry.

Supported share sources include links, text, images, and files, with the same format support as the web app (see [Features](/docs/features)), up to 100 MB — except Markdown shares, which become text cards limited to 512 KiB.

## Safari Extension

Save the page you're reading from Safari:

1. **Turn on the extension**

    In Safari, tap the extensions button in the address bar, choose **Manage Extensions**, and turn on **Teak**.

2. **Save a page**

    Open the extensions menu and tap **Teak**. The page saves right away, or Teak tells you it's already in your library.

If the extension asks you to sign in, tap **Sign In** to open Teak, sign in, then try again.

## Shortcuts and Siri

Add **Save to Teak** to a shortcut in the Shortcuts app, or say "Save to Teak" to Siri, to save text or a link. It saves without opening Teak while you're signed in; if it asks you to sign in, open Teak, sign in, then run it again.

## Settings

The **Settings** tab lets you:

- Switch appearance between **Auto** (follows iOS system setting), **Light**, and **Dark** via **Settings → Appearance**
- View your account email, card usage, and plan
- Log out
- Delete your account

## Troubleshooting

**Share sheet does not appear in the iOS Share menu**

- Open the iOS Share Sheet from any app.
- Scroll the share destinations row and tap **More**.
- Enable **Teak** in the list.

**Content saved through the share sheet is missing**

- Open Teak and pull down to refresh.
- Check that you were signed in when you shared the item.
- If the status showed a partial failure, only some items may have saved.

**Still stuck?**
