Yoink - Improved Drag and Drop Reviews

It’s a bucket

macinsetex

... and you can pour a little here and there. I am 100% iPhone, no Mac. This app works seamlessly with the following apps, which constitute my primary workflow, Evernote, Drop Box, and Spark email client. I moved Yoink to the top/front of the helper apps, so it is always up front. I do like it when Yoink asks you if you want to add a clipboard snippet. At this point, I see nothing to dislike about this app. ===older review=== Looking for tighter integration in iOS but, works quite well. A welcome and necessary addition to my workflow.

Fantastic app and support

This is a terrific shelf app. I have tried Yoink and Gladys, and prefer Yoink. Gladys seems good for highly technical people that need to disaggregate elements of links or files. But for ordinary users like me, Yoink has a much more functional view/preview capacity. I can save images or video clips in Yoink and see them full screen when deciding what to do with them. Support is great. I had trouble figuring out how to make sync work. Emailed the support address and the developer himself wrote me back the next day. Issue turned out to be operator error. Great app. 10/10 would purchase again.

iCloud sync? Finally. A great “shelf” for any device

I have used this on my Mac for years. I great place to put things I will need later. It works that way on my iPhone and iPad and that is fine. I have always wanted syncing, however. With version 2.0 iCloud syncing is supposed to be a reality, at lease between IOS devices (mac coming soon). Anyway, it seems iCloud sync allows you to “see” and even “open” things on other devices. I have not been able to save items from other devices, although handoff does that. Handoff between devices and between devices and a Mac works great. So this is not really a “sync” it just allows a window into other devices that are open and that have something in them. If a devices Yoink is empty it will not appear on the sync list.

Works great, until it don’t

Great concept but once again a receipt I saved to Yoink via the share manu is not there. The grey little dialog pops up, adding to Yoink, but went back later - nothing. I have the settings confirmed, some times it works, some times it don’t. I have to go back to saving directly to my file manager again. I just cant have this works two times out of three thing that’s happening now.

A godsend for the iPad...

This little app has made a huge difference in how I use my iPad. You can throw almost anything at it and it will just hang onto it until you need it. My go to use is grabbing reference pictures from the web or from my own photos, then dragging them from Yoink into Procreate or Affinity Designer. It’s so much easier than scrolling through my photo library several times to find what I need. It’s like a useful shoebox that keeps your stuff handy. Having it ready in slide over mode is just perfect. Get this. Now.

Great app

I use this app frequently. It works very well and the developer is very responsive to support requests. Well done.

Great app

Use this app on iOS and Mac to throw anything in. Clips of texts, webpages, and PDFs mostly, anything I want to save or use at a later time. It’s easy to use and the developer answers questions in a matter of hours. Highly recommended.

Not impressed

Thebestchefever

Would be great if it did what it says. Constantly crashes while doing handoff between iPad and iPhone.

Almost a great app

I had been using a couple of other shelf apps when Yoink became available on Setapp. There were several tech sources that were very high on Yoink, so I decided to try it. The one glaring lack I see is the ability to move files between devices, so I continue to use Gladys for this. In fairness, the developer (who is very responsive to emails and Twitter) said he is working on this feature. As soon as this feature is available, I go all in with Yoink and I’ll give it 5 stars.

Mac needs iCloud sync

velgor

Great potential, but useless to me until the Mac app can sync over iCloud. Handoff support isn't enough.
