The short version

Add the Visualist extension from your browser's extension store, pin it, and log in once. Library is the default save destination, or you can choose a folder in a Hub.

The browser extension is a web clipper. It lets you save images from any website into your Visualist library without leaving the page you are on.

Install and sign in

  1. Add the extension. Install Visualist from your browser’s extension store.
  2. Pin it. Pin the extension so its icon stays in your toolbar.
  3. Log in. Click the icon and choose Log in to Visualist. You only do this once.

Save images as you browse

Right-click any image and choose Add to Visualist, or click the extension icon to save the current image. You can crop before saving when you only want part of an image. Library is the default destination, and you can select a folder in a Hub instead.

Good to know

The extension remembers the destination you select. See How do I choose where saved images go? to change it.
