Saving with Apple shortcut
Save links to Faved from the Share Sheet on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS — and the Services menu on Mac.
The Apple Shortcuts integration lets you send links straight to Faved without leaving the app you're in. Tap Share in Safari, your RSS reader, or anywhere else on your Apple device, pick Add to Faved, and the page lands in your library. On Mac, the same shortcut is also a click away in the Services menu.
Setting up the shortcut
TIP
Ensure iCloud sync is enabled for the Shortcuts app to have it available on all your Apple devices.
Open the shortcut
Visit https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/58d96abaca9743b8bf40d610b8715f76 and click Get Shortcut on the opened page. You'll be redirected to the Apple Shortcuts app to proceed with the setup.
Begin setup in the Shortcuts app
In the Apple Shortcuts app, click Add Shortcut... on Mac, or Set Up Shortcut on iPhone/iPad.
Enter your Faved URL
When prompted, enter your Faved instance URL. If you're using the cloud version, keep the default, https://faved.cloud.
Confirm to finish
Click Add Shortcut to confirm. The Add to Faved shortcut is added to your Shortcuts library, and the Add to Faved action now appears in your Share Sheet — and in the Services menu on Mac.
