Plinky: Easily Save Links 4+

Welcome to Plinky's biggest update yet! Plinky 2.0 is all about customization. Introducing a Customizable Save Screen, Customizable Long Press Actions, and a Customizable App Icon Badge.

* Customizable Save Screen *

Saving links in Plinky has always been quick and easy, today’s update features a power up to the Save Link Screen. Previously when saving a link you could tap the Edit Link button and edit a link’s Title, Notes, Folder, or Tags.

Now there are 3 customizable buttons and 8 actions, all available without ever leaving the Save Link Screen. Build your perfect workflow by assigning these actions:

- Add Link To Folder
- Add Tags To Link
- Pin Link
- Copy Link
- Open Plinky
- Archive Link
- Share Link
- Edit Link

To choose your preferred actions open Plinky’s Settings and tap the Save Screen menu.

* Customizable Long Press Actions *

Remember all of those actions I mentioned on the Save Link Screen? Good news, they’re all available in the app whenever you long press on a link. The same way you can customize Plinky’s Swipe Actions you can customize the Long Press Actions you’d like to use, to ensure you’re not overwhelmed by a swath of choices.

To choose your preferred actions open Plinky’s Settings and tap the Link Display menu.

* Customizable App Icon Badges *

There are many ways to use Plinky, and none of them are wrong — to me you’re perfect! I’ve noticed that a lot of people are using Plinky as a place to read articles they’ve saved for later, so this improvement is for those people, and the beginning of an upcoming feature. ;)

Previously whenever you saved a link that wasn’t archived, your app icon’s badge (the little number you see on the Plinky app icon) would go up. That isn’t conducive to many people’s workflows, and goes against the spirit of making Plinky the perfect home for your links.

Now you’ll have the ability to customize what Folders or Tags make that number go up, whether to include Unsorted Links, and if that number includes your Archived Links. The best thing about this, it’s… you guessed it… customizable. Want to see how many Unsorted Links you have? No problem. Want to only see your links tagged with Reading List? Consider it done. Go ahead and build your own system.

To choose which Folders, Tags, and Links will badge your app icon open Plinky’s Settings and tap the App Icon Badge menu.

* Smaller Changes Worth Mentioning *

I always listen to users and doing my best to improve the app, if there’s something you’d like to see please let me know! Here are a few changes that I snuck into Plinky based on user feedback.

- You can now Add a Link to a Folder and Add Tags to a Link in one tap. Thanks to Plinky’s new actions it’s easier than ever to organize your links.

- The Save Link Screen is easier to exit. If you don’t want to wait for the animations to finish just tap outside of the box, and move on with your day.

- Folders are now displayed full width across the app, and tags take up as much space as they need to display all of their text. This improvement means you can always read the name of a Folder or Tag, even if your Folder has a long name like My Private Links — Stay Out Mom.

- There was a bug where the titles of color packs looked like COLOR_PACK_PRIMARY or COLOR_PACK_PASTELS, my bad. Thank you Romain and Sophia for letting me know!

And as always, there are many tweaks, improvements, and polished up buttons to keep Plinky looking beautiful.
