## Description

Collections is a sidebar for keeping what you find while you browse.

Drag a link, a selected passage or an image from any page into the sidebar and it lands in the collection you are working on: a trip, a purchase you are comparing, a project you are researching. One click saves the page you are on. Right-click anything and choose "Save to Collections" when dragging is not convenient.

<strong>What you keep</strong>
- Links and pages, with their title
- Selected text, kept as a quote with a link back to the source
- Images, with a thumbnail
- A note on any item

<strong>How you work with it</strong>
- As many collections as you need; switch between them from the sidebar heading, or press Ctrl+K (Cmd+K on Mac) to jump to any collection or item
- Open a whole collection at once as a named tab group or in a new window, or save every open tab into a collection
- Turn a collection into a checklist for a trip or a shopping list
- Coming from Edge? Import your Edge Collections export, or the database Edge left behind, from Settings
- Reorder items by dragging, or with Move up and Move down
- Copy a collection, or all of them, as Markdown and paste it into your notes app
- Open the sidebar from the toolbar button or with Alt+Shift+C (Option+Shift+C on Mac)

<strong>Where your data lives</strong>
Everything is stored in your browser profile on this computer. No account is required. If you turn on Sync with Google in Settings, your collections are kept in sync across the browsers where you sign in, and you can delete the synced copy at any time.

Collections replaces what Edge Collections and Pocket used to do for people who simply want a place to put things while they browse. It has no tags, no feeds and no AI features. It does one thing.
