Hey Taskaders 🐑

Getting things done has never been easier with our new web clipper, native desktop apps, and mobile apps. Bring Taskade with you [everywhere](https://www.taskade.com/downloads)! 😎

> **TL;DR:** The 2020 web clipper and native apps were Taskade's first cross-platform push. Today that lineage powers a full [downloads suite](https://www.taskade.com/downloads), a [Chrome extension](https://www.taskade.com/learn/connect/chrome-extension), 100+ integrations, and [Taskade Genesis](https://www.taskade.com/create) — turn any prompt into a living app powered by [AI agents](https://www.taskade.com/agents) and [automations](https://www.taskade.com/automate).

> **Then → Now:** A simple web clipper grew into 100+ integrations and a [Chrome extension](https://www.taskade.com/learn/connect/chrome-extension). The Mac/Windows/Linux apps are still on the [downloads page](https://www.taskade.com/downloads), now alongside [Genesis-built apps](https://www.taskade.com/create) and [community workflows](https://www.taskade.com/apps).

| Platform | 2020 | Today (2026) |
|---|---|---|
| Browser | Web app + Chrome/Firefox clipper | Web app + Chrome extension + 100+ integrations |
| Desktop | Mac, Windows, Linux (native) | Mac, Windows, Linux with multi-tabs + embedded agent chat |
| Mobile | iOS + Android with permissions | iOS + Android with agents, automations, Genesis apps |
| Capture | Bookmark link, clip text | Clip + email trigger + RSS + webhook + 100+ sources |
| Sync | Real-time multiplayer | Real-time multiplayer + version history + Living Memory |
