Share to Save
An Obsidian plugin that automatically downloads shared web pages as Markdown notes.
Share / Add links from mobile → Auto-download on desktop → Save to your vault
Typical Usage
- General Web Pages — Any standard article page (news, blogs, documentation) works out of the box via the built-in defuddle fallback.
- WeChat Articles — Share an article from WeChat Official Accounts to Obsidian, and it will be saved with full text, images, and metadata intact.
- Xiaohongshu (RED) Posts — Copy a RED post link, add the link in the plugin, and both the text content and all images will be extracted and saved.
Workflow
Mobile → Desktop
- Share a URL to Obsidian on your mobile device (system share menu or paste into the plugin)
- URL is written to the queue file under the Share-to-Save folder
- Sync to your desktop (see Sync Methods below)
- The desktop plugin detects the entry and automatically fetches the full web content, saving it as a
.mdnote
Desktop (Direct URL Input)
- Click the left ribbon button (cloud download icon)
- Paste text containing a URL, or paste a URL directly
- Click "Save Now"
Sync Methods
The plugin relies on file sync to transfer the queue file from mobile to desktop. We recommend one of the following:
| Method | Cost | Speed | Setup |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fast Note Sync | Free | Instant | Easy — another Obsidian plugin |
| iCloud | Free | ~1-10s | Built-in on Apple devices |
| Syncthing | Free | ~1-5s | Cross-platform, self-hosted |
| Git | Free | Manual push/pull | Versioned, but requires manual steps |
Recommendation: Fast Note Sync provides near-instant queue delivery — your desktop starts downloading within seconds of sharing on mobile. Unlike iCloud it works cross-platform, and unlike Syncthing it needs no separate daemon.
Settings
- Output folder — Directory for saved notes (default:
Share-to-Save) - Attachments are saved to
{outputFolder}/attachments/
Submitting Issues
If you encounter extraction problems, please open an issue on GitHub Issues with the following information:
- The URL — The specific link you tried to save (required)
- What went wrong — Which part was not extracted correctly? (title, author, body text, images, etc.)
- Failure type — Is it:
- Cannot extract at all (nothing saved, queue stuck, error message shown)
- Extraction is wrong (saved but content is incomplete, garbled, or incorrect)
Providing a sample URL is essential — different pages on the same platform can have completely different HTML structures.

Share to Save 是一款 Obsidian 插件，将分享的网页 URL 自动下载为 Markdown 笔记。
手机端分享 / 添加链接 → 桌面端自动下载 → 保存到你的知识库
典型用法
- 通用网页 — 任何标准文章页面（新闻、博客、文档）均可通过内置 defuddle 兜底直接使用。
- 微信文章 — 分享微信公众号文章到 Obsidian，本地保存包括图片在内的全部内容。
- 小红书笔记 — 复制小红书链接，在插件中添加URL保存，本地保存笔记正文和全部图片。
工作流程
手机分享或添加URL → 电脑自动下载
- 手机端分享通过分享按钮 分享到 Obsidian
- 在分享菜单里选择 保存到Share to Save
- 也可以 点击插件ribbon按钮，粘贴添加URL
- URL 写入 Share-to-Save文件夹下的队列文件
- 同步到桌面端（见下方同步方式）
- 桌面端插件检测到条目，自动获取网页全部内容，保存为
.md笔记
桌面端（直接输入 URL）
- 点击左侧 ribbon 按钮（云下载图标）
- 粘贴包含 URL 的文本或直接粘贴 URL
- 点击"立即保存"
同步方式
插件依赖文件同步将队列文件从手机传输到桌面。推荐以下方式：
| 方式 | 费用 | 速度 | 配置难度 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fast Note Sync | 免费 | 即时 | 简单，免费，强大 |
| iCloud | 免费 | ~1-10秒 | Apple 设备内置 |
| Syncthing | 免费 | ~1-5秒 | 跨平台，需自托管 |
| Git | 免费 | 需手动 push/pull | 有版本控制，但需手动操作 |
推荐：Fast Note Sync 可实现近乎即时的队列传送——手机端分享后几秒内桌面端即开始下载。相比 iCloud 支持跨平台，相比 Syncthing 无需额外后台进程。
设置

如有提取问题，请在 GitHub Issues 提交，并提供以下信息：
