Overview

Share any collection as a link. Anyone with the link sees a preview of the first 3 snags in their browser, with the rest locked behind a download prompt. This gives recipients a taste of what’s inside and invites them to get Snag to import the full collection.

Sharing a Collection

  1. Open the collection you want to share
  2. Tap the Share icon (top right)
  3. Tap Copy Link — or share via the Android share sheet directly to Messages, Gmail, or any app

What the Recipient Sees

When someone opens your share link in a browser:
  • First 3 snags are shown in full — title, description, thumbnail
  • Remaining snags are blurred with a lock overlay showing how many more are inside
  • Three options are presented:
    • Start Free on the Web — sign up at cloud.snaglinks.com (recommended)
    • Open in Snag App — opens directly if they already have Snag installed
    • Download on the App Store / Google Play — for new users

Importing a Shared Collection

When someone with the Snag app taps Open in Snag App:
  1. The app opens and shows a preview of the collection and item count
  2. They tap Add to My Snag
  3. All snags are copied into their own library as a new collection instantly
