There are many excellent bookmark managing tools and reading later APPs to rescue our Safari bookmark & Reading list from disorder. When El Capitan is installed the original system has brought more choices to us, which make me like to introduce them in a few words and screenshots, in order of old ones to new ones.
Bookmark & Reading list in Safari
The traditional ways like saving a website as a bookmark and reading list in the above photos is known to everyone. Their advantages are obvious?—?embedded into the Safari, easy to generate, manage and use, highly integrated to the share function module.
Web file & PDF
Web file & PDF are also the old methods to save a website for reading later indirectly. They take more physical disk space to storage the data which is not as little as a bookmark does but can be read off-line whenever you want.
PDF saved into iBooks
Since a high percent of iPhone systems have been upgraded to iOS9, it’s convenient to use the “Save as PDF into iBooks” action in the sharing module for any website page in Safari. And step2, you have to sync your iPhone with the Mac to deliver the PDF to the iBooks on OS X. It’s because the PDF that you manually generate into the iBooks would not automatically sync into the Mac through the iCloud, not the same as the books bought by you in iBooks Store. Data saved in this method is usually considered valuable to preserve for a comparatively long time.
Web link in Notes
With El Capitan and iOS9, apple users have a more powerful APP－ Notes than ever in which website links can be saved conveniently from the sharing module and full of visible elements to have a quick view and to startup your target link simply by double-clicking. No longer do you need to save them in your favorite to disorder your bookmarks. Notes is by your hand, just pore into it everything you need later, you will find auto space lines are generated, stuffs are easy to tidy with such a quick view interface and useful sorting tools. Notes can basically take the place of many reading later APPs such as Pockets and Instapaper if you don’t rely on their special functionalities too much. Additionally, it comforts me a lot to discard a third party APP in my device. I’m the less the better man.
