Comparison — data as of August 2026
Savebase vs Favourites.io: one platform, or all of them?
Favourites.io is a small, X/Twitter-only bookmark manager (about 2,000 users on its Chrome extension, per the Chrome Web Store listing) that searches, tags, and exports your X Likes and Bookmarks. It has no free plan — only a 14-day trial that imports up to 1,000 likes/bookmarks and then deletes that data if you don't subscribe. The Savebase vs Favourites.io decision follows the same logic as any focused-vs-broad tradeoff: real appeal if X is genuinely your only platform, limiting if it isn't. (See also our Savebase vs Tweetsmash comparison, another X-only tool with a similar tradeoff.)
An X/Twitter bookmark manager vs. a cross-platform one
Favourites.io is confirmed, via its own site, to cover X/Twitter Likes and Bookmarks specifically — with search by keyword, username, date, and media type, plus tagging and export. Its Chrome extension (about 2,000 users, 2.8/5 from 14 ratings as of August 2026) only integrates with X via OAuth. If your saves live entirely on X, that focus can be a genuine strength; if they're spread across Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, or elsewhere, you'd be running Favourites.io alongside something else for the rest.
Supports X/Twitter bookmarks and likes
Also supports Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, and 7 more platforms
Favourites.io is X/Twitter-only by design — this isn't a gap for them, it's their positioning
What each plan actually costs
Favourites.io has no free plan — only a 14-day, card-free trial that imports up to 1,000 likes/bookmarks and then deletes that data if you don't subscribe (confirmed on Favourites.io's own FAQ). Paid access, per their live pricing page, is a one-off €19 for 3 months or €39 for 12 months — roughly €3.25-6.33/month, which undercuts Savebase Pro on a pure per-month basis, but for one platform only and via a fixed-term, not-obviously-recurring payment (their separate FAQ page confusingly describes '€29/year, renewed annually', an inconsistency we're flagging rather than resolving for them). Savebase's free plan requires no trial or card at all, and Pro adds unlimited platforms and posts for $8/month, $76/year, or a $199 lifetime option.
Free plan (no trial, no expiry)
Savebase Free: 100 saved posts across 11 platforms, no time limit. Favourites.io: 14-day trial capped at 1,000 imports, then your data is deleted if you don't subscribe.
Cheapest paid entry point
Savebase Pro: $8/month, $76/year, or $199 lifetime. Favourites.io: €19 for 3 months or €39 for 12 months (one-off, per their live pricing page).
Lifetime / one-time-forever option
Savebase offers a $199 lifetime plan. Favourites.io's plans are fixed 3- or 12-month terms, not lifetime.
What happens when a bookmarked tweet is deleted
The best available evidence here comes from a competitor: Dewey's own "Favourites.io Alternative" comparison states plainly that Favourites.io "relies on Twitter's bookmarks, so if a tweet is deleted, it disappears from your collection as well." We'd normally discount a competitor's characterization, but it lines up with everything on Favourites.io's own site — which talks about search, organization, and export, and never once claims to preserve content after deletion. Worth noting X/Twitter also isn't one of the platforms covered by Savebase's own Permanent Media Backup — that currently applies to Instagram, Threads, TikTok, and Facebook saves specifically.
Preserves saved content after the original tweet is deleted
Best evidence (a competitor's direct claim, consistent with the absence of any such claim on Favourites.io's own site) suggests no — it appears to rely on live X data
Permanent backup of the actual media (Instagram, Threads, TikTok, Facebook)
Not applicable to Favourites.io given its X-only scope — and X itself isn't covered by Savebase's Permanent Backup either
Tags, folders, and finding things again
Both tools offer organization features for X bookmarks specifically — Favourites.io's own homepage describes folders, tags, and one-click export to CSV, JSON, or Excel. Savebase extends that same organization model (tags, folders, notes, reminders, advanced search) across every platform you connect, and adds AI Bulk Tagging on Pro; Favourites.io's tagging is manual only, with no AI or auto-organization feature found on its site. For more X-focused options, see our best X bookmark manager apps roundup.

AI-assisted / bulk tagging
Savebase Pro includes AI Bulk Tagging. No AI or auto-tagging feature found on Favourites.io's site — its tagging is manual.

The honest verdict
No tool wins everything. Here's how to decide in thirty seconds.
Pick Savebase if…
- Your saves span more than X/Twitter — Savebase covers 11 platforms (Bluesky, Instagram, Threads, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Truth Social, YouTube, X) from one place
- You want a genuine free plan with no trial clock — Favourites.io's 14-day trial deletes your imported likes/bookmarks if you don't subscribe afterward
- You want permanent media backup for Instagram, Threads, TikTok, or Facebook saves — Favourites.io doesn't archive media at all; it works only with live X data
Pick Favourites.io if…
- X/Twitter is genuinely your only platform, and you want a tool purpose-built around X's likes and bookmarks specifically, including a 'Discover' feature that resurfaces old saves
- You want a low one-off payment instead of a recurring subscription — €19 for 3 months or €39 for 12 months undercuts Savebase Pro on a pure per-month basis, if you're comfortable manually renewing
- You want straightforward CSV/JSON/Excel export of your X data without needing broader platform support
Frequently asked questions
Is Favourites.io only for X/Twitter?
Yes — confirmed via their own site and Chrome extension listing, it's built specifically around X/Twitter Likes and Bookmarks (it covers both, not just bookmarks). It doesn't support Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, or any other platform.
How much does Favourites.io cost?
Per Favourites.io's own pricing page (favourites.io/Subscription/upgrade) as of August 2026: €19 for 3 months or €39 for 12 months, both one-off payments, after a 14-day free trial that imports up to 1,000 likes/bookmarks (no credit card required). One inconsistency worth flagging: Favourites.io's separate FAQ page states the service is '€29/year, renewed annually' — that doesn't match the pricing page, so treat both as approximate until you check their live checkout. Savebase Pro is $8/month, $76/year, or $199 lifetime, with a permanent free plan (100 saved posts, 11 platforms) that needs no trial or card.
What happens to my Favourites.io trial data if I don't pay?
Per Favourites.io's own FAQ, after the 14-day trial ends, 'your likes and collections will be deleted from favourites.io.' Savebase's free plan has no such expiry — your 100 saved posts stay saved.
Does Favourites.io keep a saved tweet if the original is deleted?
Likely not, based on the best evidence available: Dewey's own comparison of the two products states Favourites.io "relies on Twitter's bookmarks, so if a tweet is deleted, it disappears from your collection as well." That's a competitor's characterization, not Favourites.io's own claim, but it's consistent with Favourites.io's own marketing, which describes search, organization, and export — never deleted-content protection — across everything we found on their site.
Can I import my Favourites.io saves into Savebase?
Reach out to support@savebase.space and we'll help however we can. Favourites.io's own marketing describes one-click export to CSV, JSON, or Excel, so a direct export/import path is realistic.
Your saved posts deserve better than eleven separate apps
Import your existing saved folders in one click, and never lose a post to deletion again with Permanent Media Backup.
Favourites.io is a separate product and is not affiliated with Savebase. Feature and pricing details reflect Favourites.io's own site (homepage, pricing/upgrade page, and FAQ page) and its Chrome Web Store listing, checked in August 2026, plus one specific claim sourced from a competitor's (Dewey's) published comparison — flagged clearly where used. Favourites.io's own FAQ page and pricing page state different renewal terms for the same service; we've noted that inconsistency rather than picking one. Prices and features may change — check Favourites.io's own site before deciding.
