The app may fill in the network for you when it recognizes Amazon, Rakuten, ShopMy or Mavely links. Check that it is the right one.

What does a link card show?
Each link is a card, newest first, numbered LINK 1, LINK 2 and so on. A card shows:
- The network.
- The product picture, if the app found one.
- views: how many times posts carrying the link were seen. Each account counts once per post per day.
- clicks: how many times shoppers tapped the link on your posts. Tapping a card on this screen does not count.
When you save a link, the app looks up the picture and product name from it. If it cannot find them, the card has no picture, and shows the network name instead of a product name.
How do I fix a missing picture?
- Tap Refresh on the card to look the link up again.
- Or tap Add photo to choose your own. Once a link has a photo, the button reads Change photo. Your photo is cropped to a square.
How do I find a link?
Type in Search your links. It matches the link address and the network name.
How do I delete a link?
- Tap Delete on the card.
- Tap Confirm.
Deleting a link also removes its card from every post that tagged it.
Can I edit a link’s address?
No. You cannot change a link’s address or network. Delete it, then add it again with the right one. Adding it again does not put it back into old posts.
