You need an **SD card**.

1. **Open the page** in the [Gemini App](/guide/gemini/).
2. **Press <kbd>s</kbd>** to save it. It is kept with the address it came from and the time it was saved. Saving the same page again replaces it, and says so.
3. **To keep a whole capsule corner,** press <kbd>S</kbd> instead: it saves the page and the pages it links to on the **same capsule**, as text only, up to 30, in the background.
4. **Later, offline:** open the Gemini App. The start page lists **Saved Pages**, newest first, grouped by capsule, below your bookmarks. They open with no network.
5. **Links inside a saved page** open the saved copy when there is one. Any other link needs Wi-Fi, or says `not saved, offline`.

## Keeping it tidy

- <kbd>r</kbd> **refreshes** a saved page from the web, and <kbd>d</kbd> **deletes** it.
- **Bookmarks** (<kbd>b</kbd>) are a list of addresses, not copies: they need Wi-Fi to open.
- Saved Pages are never offered for deletion by the clean-up. They are in `/gemini/saved/` if you want to move them.
- A file that is not text (a picture, say) is saved to `/gemini/downloads/` and cannot be shown on the device.
