Read Gemini pages offline
Save pages to the SD card, and read them later with Wi-Fi off.
You need an SD card.
- Open the page in the Gemini App.
- Press s 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.
- To keep a whole capsule corner, press S instead: it saves the page and the pages it links to on the same capsule, as text only, up to 30, in the background.
- 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.
- 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
- r refreshes a saved page from the web, and d deletes it.
- Bookmarks (b) 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.
