I subscribed to Hookmark Pal on my iPhone but I don’t understand how to use it. When I select a URL, i see choices of Open Link, Copy Link or Share… When I open Hookmark Pal and select All, I see an icon on the top right. When I select it I see the URL with choices of Dismiss or Focus.

I don’t understand where Hookmark Pal presents itself when I select a URL. How does bidirectional links works? I suggest showing usage screenshots or a tutorial.

Thank you,

Abe

When you tap on the clipboard icon in the top right corner, Hookmark Pal will check to see if there is a link in the clipboard and if so it will focus on that link. This means that it will show you whatever is hooked to that URL.

To create bidirectional links:

  1. make sure there is a link in the clipboard (you can do this from within Hookmark by long-pressing on a link and choosing the Copy option; or from outside Hookmark as you normally would, such as from Safari using the Share sheet to copy the link).
  2. long press on the link you want hooked to #1, and select Hook to Copied Link

A hook is a bidirectional link between two addresses (URLs.) Hooks are a handy way to navigate between information.

Normally, most of a user’s hooks will be created on Mac. You’d long press on a link that has hooks to _focus_ on that link, which will show you whatever is hooked to the link.

If I choose iCloud for syncing are all my bookmarks stored in iCloud instead of my Mac?

Not instead of but in addition to.

So, my bookmarks will stay where they are now and also on iCloud?

that is correct. You can disconnect from iCloud anytime.
