Tote for Google Chrome

Tote for Google Chrome is a browser extension that saves the page you’re viewing to your Tote account. Open it from Chrome’s toolbar, then share the saved page, add it to a list, or set a reminder without leaving the tab.

Save More Than a Bookmark

Tote keeps the source link and the page details that make it useful, then processes the save so it is easier to find later in the iPhone app.

Permissions and Privacy

Active Page Only, After You Ask

Tote uses Chrome’s active-tab access instead of broad permission to read every site you visit.

It runs after your action

Tote reads the active page only when you open the popup or choose Save page to Tote from the right-click menu.

Page evidence is bounded

The extension sends the page URL, useful metadata, media links, and a short text excerpt to your Tote account. It does not install a script that watches every page.

Account and diagnostics data stay limited

Sign-in uses Apple or Google. Usage analytics and diagnostics exclude raw page content, reminder text, account tokens, and provider credentials.

Help

Tote Chrome Extension Questions

The first things to know about saving behavior, supported pages, the right-click shortcut, and troubleshooting.

Does opening Tote save the page immediately?

Yes. When you are signed in, opening Tote on a supported page starts the save. The popup shows progress, then switches to the saved page with Share, Remind me, and Add to lists actions.

Which pages can I save?

Tote works with regular web pages and specific content such as an article, recipe, product, social post, email, event, file, or message. Open the specific item first. Chrome settings pages, broad feeds, profiles, search results, inboxes, dashboards, and similar collections are not supported.

Can I save without opening the popup?

Yes. After signing in, right-click a supported page and choose Save page to Tote. Chrome shows a notification when the save finishes or needs attention.

Do I need the Tote iPhone app?

You can create an account and save from the extension without the app. Use the Tote iPhone app to browse, search, and manage your full library wherever you go.

What should I try if Tote cannot save a page?

Make sure you opened a specific item rather than a feed, profile, search page, inbox, or dashboard. Regular Chrome settings pages cannot be captured. If a normal page still fails, check your connection, reload the page, and try Tote again.
