Trove allows you to quickly save and organize your webpages, texts, images, videos, pdfs & more. The bookmarks are secure, encrypted and only readable to you (identity).
Hello Product Hunt,
We started sketching the idea of a privacy-focused bookmark manager a few months ago. Today, we’re very excited to launch, Trove, a modern, beautiful and secure bookmarking app powered by Blockstack and Gaia. Easily save from the web via the web app or browser extensions.
What we read defines us, and our bookmarks help us save and organize a piece of information for later. The content, if not treasured (read: prevent companies from mining them), could manipulate our opinions in unimaginable ways. Therefore, privacy is an urgent need where people curate their knowledge.
Trove empowers people to have control over their identity and provides access to their data without compromising privacy and security. The data stored in it are encrypted-by-default, which means that you own your data, and only you can access it with the keys that you hold.
In the first version, anyone can easily Save to Trove via the web app or browser extensions, and organize with collections & tags. We have plans to make Trove even powerful by adding the ability to save different content types (images, videos, code snippets, text), smart categorization, a comprehensive read mode, a mobile app and bookmark importer from other platforms. We know that the journey is long, but we are committed to our mission and excited to share more about Trove in the future.
Please try Trove at https://app.trovenow.com or if you have any questions, ask away!
We would appreciate if you use Trove. Please upvote in Product Hunt, if you like and support us. We are also participating in Blockstack App Mining program, therefore, your support will help us secure funds to keep making Trove sustainable/better.
We launched with Firefox[1] and Chrome browser extensions to quickly add pages to your Trove. As soon as Chrome Web Store completes their review process[2], we will update the app with the link. Thank you for your patience!

We look for the continued support from all of you. :)
Hello all,
Creating a brand in the uncharted territory of decentralization made us grow and deliver a modern, secure and beautiful app like Trove. This is the first version of Trove, we plan to audit the brand further as the product moves in different cycles.
Please join the bandwagon of Trove by using it, upvoting and tweeting about us. We would love to hear your feedbacks and grow.
Surprisingly good product compared to the other apps in the Blockstack ecosystem.
Hope the team delivers on the updates, looks very good already and I can only encourage them to continue the development.
Browser extensions are a very nice plus.
@biraj_koirala Thanks for using Trove. We really appreciate it. If you have any feedback, please reach out to us directly at contact@trovenow.com.
PS. Android app is on the way :D
The great thing about this product is not that it helps manage random search/surf activity in a clean and organized references as a bookmark.
The great thing is not how simple this app is and just does what it is intended to do in a minimal and simplistic way.
The great things is that it respects privacy and let me own my data and exists in a decentralized app space. In this era of copious cloud services and apps where breach, scrutiny and misuse of personal information is prevalent, It in-fact is a treasure trove in itself.
I love the new features especially the ability to save paragraphs from any website. I saw that adding code snippets are next in line. Can't wait for them A++
Highly recommended!! :)
This project makes sense to me ! Maybe it will be added by chrome later on. But i really needed a tool for managing/searching my bookmarks! Thanks @prashishh for taking this initiation and implemented secure application for this! Kudos!
@andresh_singh Thanks! The Chrome extension is under review and we plan to publish it as soon as we get a green light. Firefox add-on is live though. We have plans to support other browsers in the future (esp. Brave).
@iekristina Sorry for the trouble. Can you send more details at contact@trovenow.com? It would be helpful to know which page you were trying to save (will help us debug) and what error it threw.
I have been usign trove since its earlier releases. They just came out with additional features like bookmarking images, videos and documents and now its not just a traditional web page bookmarking web app/extension. It's a dime !! Kudos Team !!
I have been using this product since a month and it has never been so easy to save and access the Websites, PDF's and Images I browse. During a single day use, I open at-least 30 to 40 tabs on my browser, which really makes it cluttered and difficult to save good things which can be utilised for meetings and resources later, Trove comes in handy with its Right Click option feature and Trove Icon, which really makes it 2 clicks away to bookmark the necessary items.
The best part about the product is Privacy, which ensures my storage items do not affect the way I browse or experience the web and the application. It truly is an organiser for all my wisdom and references.
I'm having to 'Select Collection' multiple times when frequently bookmarking. Adding the option to set a default collection will help. Also, the ability to bookmark YouTube videos based on their timing would be really handy. All in all a great product.
Trove
