#2Just released my new Pinboard app for iOS 14 and macOS Big Sur called Pins. I've been looking for a good Pinboard app but most have been discontinued or rarely have any updates in the last few years. So I took the matter in my own hands and built one. Pins is free to try — give it a look if you're a happy Pinboard user like me!

Hi, I was just looking for a good iPadOS bookmark app last night, so I was surprised to see this. I downloaded your app but I have a question: do I have to connect/login to pinboard in order to create a new bookmark? I tried clicking “Done” button and the app does nothing.

#4Awesome! Spillo on Mac was getting old so this is great. Excited to try this across iOS and Mac.

#5Thank you for this! I've been unhappy with the iOS options recently (bugs, no one replying to bug reports, etc). So far your app is working better than the other choices and it handled my 15k+ bookmark collection easily.
The most important feature for me is being able to use the iOS share function and quickly add something with tags (and tag auto-complete). It would have been nice to test that ahead of the in-app purchasing but decided to go for it. Happy that all works well. Great work.

#6Are tag auto complete on the horizon? I use tagging a lot and it is really hard to tag without.
Also one amazing feature Pushpin has I haven’t seen elsewhere is they also tell you how many times you have used a tag during auto complete. If this could be available cross platform, it would be amazing.
Paying is not a problem.

Tag autocomplete is available after purchasing? I didn’t see it under the list of unlock features.
Though I’d probably be more interested in how the Mac app works unless Pins also gets Pushpin’s feature of showing you how many times you’ve used tags during auto complete.

There's tag completion in the free-to-try version! Just start typing in the Tags field and Pins will offer you the 3 most used tags that matches it above the keyboard.

Glad to know it works out for you! Pins should be able to handle even 100,000K+ bookmarks so you're good to go.
Share extension comes with tag suggestion and tag autocompletion, so give it a try.

Tag autocompletion is available in the free-to-try version as well. When you start typing in the Tags fields, 3 most used tags matching that query will show up above the keyboard.
The Mac app is based on Catalyst and 99% feature equivalent to the iOS version. More options to view how tags are used in your account is coming in later versions.
