Distill
Save, archive, and search your links — across iOS, macOS, and watchOS.
Share-sheet anything into Distill. It fetches the article, archives the full text and a screenshot, runs an on-device summary, and makes the whole thing searchable later. Your read-later list, but actually retrievable.
Requires the TestFlight app (free) · Spaces limited.
What you get
Share-sheet capture
Send anything from Safari, Mail, Messages, or any app's share sheet. Distill fetches the page in the background, indexes the text, and stores a screenshot.
Full-text search
Find a saved article by any phrase in its body, not just the title. Index lives on-device; queries run in milliseconds against thousands of pages.
On-device summaries
Apple Intelligence or the on-device LLM unlock. Three-bullet summary, key quotes, suggested tags. No part of the article touches the network for summarization.
Apple Watch
Glance your unread queue from your wrist. Mark something done while walking. Distill is one of very few read-later apps with a real watchOS surface.
macOS app
Native macOS app, not a web wrapper. Keyboard shortcuts, menubar quick-add, AppleScript hooks. Same iCloud database as iOS so everything stays in sync.
Smart tagging
Auto-tag suggestions from the AI summary. Manual tags too. Tag-based collections rendered as boards or lists, your choice.
Privacy by default
No analytics. No third-party SDKs. No tracking. Apple-ecosystem services only — App Store, iCloud, StoreKit, Apple Intelligence where applicable.
