A few things to know

Does the app archive websites on my phone?

Your ArchiveBox server performs the archiving and stores the files. The Android app sends links, searches your collection, and opens server pages. Keep your server running and reachable.

Can I connect over Tailscale?

Yes, when your device is connected to your tailnet and the server is reachable. In Connection Settings, check a server’s MagicDNS name or tailnet IP on port 5797. Enter a server hostname or IP address, or paste Tailscale status JSON to check your known peers.

Where is the Google Play download?

Currently while in BETA, the app is installable from Github as an APK. We hope to have a Google Play version available in the near future.

What happens to my data?

Shared URLs and searches go to your configured server. The app stores the connection on your device. Your server controls archive retention and access, and the pages you open may contact their own services. Read the privacy notes.
