Safepay And Bookmark

Options

I do not understand the instructions for Bookmarking while in Safepay. Could someone please explain them, at a kindergarten level?


Also, is it possible to SCAN and SAVE TO DOCUMENTS something that is Bookmarked?

    Bookmarks fulfills two roles on Safepay, one being the facility to quickly access a website just by clicking the bookmark.


    The second is that once an address is present in the bookmarks, it is treated as a "trusted" (by user) website.


    There are also the websites that are marked in our cloud database as trusted (banks, clean websites etc. as opposed to malware, phishing, spam etc.)


    Now about how it works; you can add a bookmark:


    - manually, by clicking in FAVORITES the big plus sign; a NEW BOOKMARK appears, where you can enter the address (in the Enter Url box) and the title (in the Enter Title box).


    For example, url can be https://www.citibank.com/ and title Citibank.


    - automatically, by clicking the star icon in the address bar; once you navigated to a website, in the address bar (in the right, just left to the print icon) will appear a star. Clicking it will automatically add the website to the Favorites, with the current address you navigated to, and the current webpage title.


    For example, if you navigate to https://www.citibank.com/ and press the star, a new bookmark will be created, with the address of Citibank.


    Mine will have


    URL: https://online.citi.com/US/Welcome.c


    Title: Banking, Credit Cards, Lending & Investing - Citibank® - Citibank


    One more caution: I do *not* recommend adding websites such as Google in bookmarks. These tend to generate a lot of traffic to, and you may end up open automatically Safepay when you do a simple search in another browser using Google search.


    This is simply not needed, since Safepay will search directly from the address bar if you do not enter a valid website address.


    For example, if you open Safepay and type in the address bar "internet banking" (without quotes), Safepay will detect that "internet banking" is not a valid address, and it will navigate to a Google search address, mine being


    https://www.google.com/search?q=internet+ba...ng&hl=en-US


    (The results obviously depends on whatever Google will display for your location).


    Hope this helps.

    For this one I am not sure how this should work.


    Bookmarks are not documents, but web shortcuts (simply URL addresses of websites you visit often, and you trust).


    Would you like these shortcuts to be saved in such a way that they should be available for your convenience to use in other programs?


    Because this can mean anything: save web shortcuts to use in another browser, save the webpages locally.


    Waiting for your reply to understand how exactly you would like this to work.
