Frequently Asked Questions About Saved Items

Where are my saved items stored?

Your saved items are stored directly in your web browser’s local storage. This means they are specific to the browser and device you are currently using. For example, items saved in Chrome on your desktop won’t appear in Safari on your phone, or even in Firefox on the same desktop.

Do saved items expire or disappear?

Generally, items saved in your browser’s local storage do not expire unless you manually clear your browser’s data (cookies, site data, etc.) or specifically click the “Clear All Saved Items” button on this page. However, it’s important to note that if the original article, event, or business listing is removed from AnchorageList.com, it will no longer be accessible even if its entry remains in your saved list.

Can I save items on my phone and see them on my computer?

Because items are stored locally on your device’s browser, your saved list will not automatically sync across different devices (e.g., phone to desktop, or Chrome browser to Safari browser on the same device). To access your list on another device, you would need to save the items again on that specific device.

What if I want to remove just one item?

Currently, the “Clear All Saved Items” button removes everything from your list. We are always working to improve AnchorageList.com, and the ability to remove individual items is a highly requested feature that we hope to implement in the future to give you more granular control over your saved content.

Is there a limit to how many items I can save?

While there isn’t a strict, practical limit for typical usage, local storage does have a capacity (usually around 5-10MB per domain). For the type of data saved by AnchorageList, you can comfortably save hundreds, if not thousands, of items without encountering any issues.
