Introduction

Have you ever saved a video or link on Instagram or any other social media platform, only to lose it later in the abyss of your saved library? It's a common problem we all face. But what if I told you there is a better way to save and organize useful links? In this blog post, we'll explore how to use Notion to categorize and save links for future use.

Use Notion to Categorize Links

A notion is a powerful tool that helps you to categorize all your useful links in one place. You can create a database in Notion and then categorize your links into action-oriented goals. For instance, if you find a video on UX/UI teaching you how to animate buttons, save it as a UX/UI tool for use in your upcoming projects. Doing so lets you easily find the link when you need it.

Use Shortcuts App to Automate Link Saving

While it's easy to share links on Notion from an iPhone, categorizing them can be a bit tricky. But there is a solution to this problem. You can create an automation that will help you save bookmarks from Siri to Notion. The Shortcut app can help you create that automation. This way, when you come across a useful link, all you have to do is copy the link to the clipboard & say "Hey Siri, run Bookmark to Notion," and choose the right category from the prompt the link will be automatically saved to your Notion database with category.

If you want to create your own shortcut, a full breakdown is available on our blog "How to Set Up iPhone/iPad Shortcuts to Connect with Notion Database?". However, if you don't want to go through all the technicalities of creating a shortcut, you can download the Notion template with the shortcut from this link: Notion Template with Shortcut.

Conclusion

Using Notion to categorize and save useful links is a great way to keep track of important information. With the help of the Shortcut app, you can easily automate the process and save time. So, the next time you come across a useful link, don't just save it in the abyss of your saved library. Use Notion to categorize and save it for future use.
