One click saves the page you’re on
The side panel already knows the tab you’re looking at. Hit save and it lands in Orbb, ready to be read and categorized.
Orbb lives in Chrome’s side panel, right next to the page. Save what you’re reading, drop in files, and pull over everything you already saved on Instagram, Reddit, and X.

The panel stays open as you browse, so saving never costs you the tab you’re on.
What it does
The side panel already knows the tab you’re looking at. Hit save and it lands in Orbb, ready to be read and categorized.
Links, images, audio, text, and files up to 10 MB. Drag them straight onto the panel or choose them from disk.
A context-menu item for pages, links, images, and whatever text you have selected. No panel required.
Import Instagram saved posts and folders, Reddit saved posts, and X bookmarks. Folder names come along.
Run it manually, or every 30 minutes, hourly, every 6 hours, or daily. Chrome has to be running for a scheduled run to fire.
URLs are normalized and de-duplicated locally before anything is sent, so re-saving a page doesn’t clutter your library.
How importing works
Worth being precise about, because importing your saved posts sounds like it should need one. It doesn’t.
A sync opens the provider’s saved-items page in an inactive Chrome tab and reads it using the account already signed in to that site. Nothing is asked for, and nothing is stored.
The inactive tab is opened for the collection and closed afterwards. Scheduled runs only fire while Chrome is actually running.
You authorize the extension from the Orbb app on your phone. It receives a 30-day, write-only token, and signing out revokes that session remotely.
Get started
Install from the Chrome Web Store, then pin Orbb to your toolbar.
The panel shows a QR code. Authorize it from the Orbb app on your iPhone — no password is typed into the browser.
Click the toolbar icon to open the side panel on any page, and save as you browse.
Add Orbb to Chrome and everything you keep shows up on your iPhone and Mac too.
