You have a system. It just isn't working. There's a browser folder called 'Read Later' that you haven't opened in four months. A Notes app full of half-finished thoughts. A YouTube playlist that's technically organized but practically useless. And somewhere in your email drafts, a link you sent yourself that you will never, ever find again.
The real problem isn't discipline — it's that most apps are built for one thing. Bookmarking apps save URLs but don't let you attach files or set reminders. Note apps handle text but fall apart when you paste a video. Task managers track to-dos but treat saved content like an afterthought. What you actually need is one workspace that treats a YouTube link, a PDF, a webpage screenshot, and a handwritten idea as equal citizens — organized together, searchable, and actionable. That app exists.
What to Look for in a 'Save Everything' App
Before you download anything, it helps to understand what separates a genuinely useful content-capture app from one that just adds to the clutter. The category goes by many names — read-it-later apps, digital notebooks, personal knowledge managers, bookmarking tools — but they all promise the same thing: one place for everything. Most fall short in the same three ways.
1. Capture has to be frictionless. If saving a link takes more than two taps or one click, you won't do it consistently. The best apps in this category have a browser extension, a share sheet, or both — so saving a webpage, a video URL, or a PDF is a single action, not a workflow.
2. Saved content has to be actionable. Saving something is step one. But if you can never find it again, or if there's no way to attach a deadline or a reminder to it, the save was pointless. Look for full-text search across all your saved items, plus the ability to add tasks and reminders directly to saved content — not just tags.
3. It has to work where you work. If your content lives in one silo and your team lives in another, you end up copying and pasting links into Slack forever. The strongest options in this category sync across devices and let you share notes or saved content with collaborators without complicated permission systems.
How TaskLoco Handles Links, Videos, and Notes
TaskLoco was built around sticky notes — the physical kind, where one idea lives in one place and you can see everything at once. That philosophy turns out to be exactly right for saving mixed content. A YouTube link, a PDF attachment, a webpage clip, and a plain-text idea all live on the same wall, visually distinct, instantly scannable.
The Chrome extension is where the capture story starts. One click saves any webpage directly into a TaskLoco note — the URL, the title, and any text you've highlighted. That note lands on your wall immediately, fully searchable, ready to have a task or reminder attached to it. For videos, paste the URL into a note and it's there. For files — PDFs, images, documents — drag them straight into a note with up to 10GB of storage included in Premium.
The piece most capture apps miss entirely: reminders that deep-link back to the original note. When TaskLoco fires a push notification reminder, tapping it takes you directly to the note — the link, the file, the context — not just to the app's home screen. That's the difference between a reminder that actually helps and one you dismiss and forget.
Search works across everything: note text, attached file names, and saved URLs. You don't need a perfect tagging system. You just need to remember one word from the thing you saved.
The Chrome Extension and File Attachment Story
The Chrome extension deserves its own section because it's the thing that makes TaskLoco work as a daily capture habit rather than an occasional tool. One click on the extension popup saves the current tab — URL, page title, and any text you've selected — directly into a new note. No copy-paste. No switching apps. No friction.
On mobile, you reach Lite Plus+ and Premium through your phone's browser — the share sheet on iOS and Android lets you send URLs from Safari, Chrome, or any other app straight into TaskLoco. It's not a native app experience, but it's fast enough that it doesn't break the habit.
File attachments are where TaskLoco genuinely separates itself from pure bookmarking tools. Premium includes 10GB of file storage, and you can attach any file type to any note — drop a PDF research paper next to the webpage link that led you to it, attach a screenshot to a video URL, or store a contract alongside the task reminder to follow up on it. The 10GB base is expandable too: storage add-ons go up to 1TB in stackable tiers, so the app scales as your archive grows.
Team Sharing and the Free Tiers Explained
TaskLoco has three tiers, and it's worth being clear about what each one actually does — because the wrong tier will frustrate you quickly.
TaskLoco Lite is the native iPhone and Android app. It's completely anonymous — no sign-in, no account, no syncing, ever. It stores up to 20 notes in a file on your device. It's genuinely useful for private, local capture, but it doesn't sync anywhere and has no reminders, no attachments, and no sharing. Think of it as a digital sticky note pad that lives entirely on your phone.
TaskLoco Lite Plus+ is the free web app and Chrome extension. Sign in with Google, get up to 30 notes, and they sync across every device through your browser. The Chrome extension is included. This is the tier where cross-device sync actually works, and it costs nothing. The limits: no reminders, no file attachments, and a 30-note cap.
TaskLoco Premium is where the full picture comes together. Unlimited notes, 10GB file storage, reminders delivered as push notifications to your phone and computer (with optional email and SMS), a calendar view, and team sharing. Team sharing works like email: you share a note, the recipient gets it, they can clone it and make it their own. No permissions dashboard, no access level settings. It just works.
For teams, each person needs their own Premium subscription. That's worth stating plainly: there's no single account that covers a group. But the sharing experience is smooth enough that the individual-subscription model doesn't create friction in practice — shared notes arrive like messages and integrate immediately into each person's workspace.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can TaskLoco save YouTube links and other video URLs?
Yes. Paste any video URL into a TaskLoco note and it's saved with full context — searchable, taggable, and available on every device through the web app. You can attach files to the same note, add a task, and set a push notification reminder that deep-links back to that exact note when it fires.
How does the Chrome extension work?
The TaskLoco Chrome extension is free. When you're on any webpage — an article, a video, a product page — click the extension icon and the current tab is saved directly into a new TaskLoco note. The URL and page title are captured instantly. If you've highlighted text on the page, that's captured too. The note appears in your workspace immediately, ready for a reminder, a file attachment, or a tag.
What's the difference between Lite, Lite Plus+, and Premium?
TaskLoco Lite is a native iPhone and Android app — completely anonymous, no sign-in, stores up to 20 notes locally on your device, no sync, no reminders, no attachments. TaskLoco Lite Plus+ is the free web app and Chrome extension — sign in with Google, sync up to 30 notes across all devices, no reminders or attachments. TaskLoco Premium is the full workspace: unlimited notes, 10GB file storage, push notification reminders that deep-link to your notes, calendar view, team sharing, and optional email and SMS notifications. Each team member needs their own Premium subscription.
Does TaskLoco work on mobile?
TaskLoco Lite is a native app available in the App Store and Google Play — anonymous, 20 notes, stored locally only. TaskLoco Lite Plus+ and Premium run on mobile through your phone's browser — they are web apps, not native apps. The browser experience works well on both iOS and Android, but if you need a native app with full features like reminders and file attachments, that's worth factoring into your decision.
Can I attach files to saved links?
Yes — this is one of the things that sets TaskLoco Premium apart from pure bookmarking tools. Every note can have file attachments. Premium includes 10GB of storage, and you can attach PDFs, images, documents, or any file type directly to the note that contains your saved link. Storage is expandable in tiers up to 1TB if you need more room.
How does team sharing work?
In TaskLoco Premium, sharing a note works like sending an email — you share it, the recipient receives it, and they can clone it into their own workspace and make it their own. There's no permissions system, no access level configuration, no shared folder to manage. Each team member needs their own Premium subscription. Shared notes sync in real time.
