Just save the image or screenshot the item and use the 'custom find' feature. You can always create a linked Find at a future point on your computer </p> <p>Hope that helps; I love Finds; it's the only tracking tool I've ever managed to use consistently (and free to boot!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-a-new-bie-out---how-does-collecting-work#post-2247437 Tue, 11 Jan 2022 13:11:47 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2247437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One of these days, ylf will have to catch up to the way people live these days. But the tech side is done by Angie’s husband as a side project/hobby kind of thing, so we can’t hold our breath for that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-a-new-bie-out---how-does-collecting-work#post-2247262 Mon, 10 Jan 2022 01:42:06 +0000 Zaeobi 2247262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aha I can commiserate - this is (partially) the reason why I have not yet created Finds for my actual wardrobe (despite banging on about doing it for years now, oops) lol... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-a-new-bie-out---how-does-collecting-work#post-2247259 Mon, 10 Jan 2022 01:18:31 +0000 Garden Fairy 2247259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all!

There is an applet for the computer, which I'll use for shops I know are supported.</p> <p>You can create your own Finds by taking or saving a pic of the item- which can be done on the phone.</p> <p>I use my phone nearly all the time. It's easy enough to create collections from the phone one the Finds are in there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-a-new-bie-out---how-does-collecting-work#post-2247240 Sun, 09 Jan 2022 22:43:41 +0000 Garden Fairy 2247240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello, please help a newbie out! I have been looking to find a description or post on how to get started with collecting and can't find it anywhere, including in tech support.</p> <p>- to collect items from stores, it looks like I need à bookmarklet - where can I find it and how do I download/install it? I am on mobile (Android).<br /> (Edited to add - it is fairly intuitive how to collecf from YLF members finds, but I would like to learn how to be able to collect from stores). </p> <p>- are finds and collections significantly easier on desktop vs mobile?</p> <p>- is it possible to download our own finds? And how do we go about it?</p> <p>I love the forum and discussions here in and of themselves but it also looks like find and collections can be a very interesting feature, may be - if I can figure out how to use it...</p> <p>Thank you! </p>
