Sorti vs Locker - Shopping wishlist, or everything you save?

★★★★★ Sorti is rated 5.0 on the App Store and Google Play · Updated July 2026

A wishlist stores what you wanted. Sorti treats a save as intent, and brings it back when you can act on it. Products, recipes, places, screenshots, and social saves, all organized automatically, with price-drop alerts and creator attribution, on iPhone AND Android. Free.

TL;DR - Quick verdict

  • Pick Sorti if you save more than products. Screenshots, recipes, places, Instagram and TikTok saves all land in one library, organized automatically.
  • Pick Sorti if you want automatic price-drop and back-in-stock alerts on the things you saved, instead of checking manually.
  • Pick Sorti if you follow creators. Sorti recognizes which creator inspired a save and tags it to them, and Creator Mode turns those saves into affiliate revenue.
  • Pick Sorti if you use Android, or want your saves private by default.
  • Pick Locker if shopping is the entire job and you specifically want a public, social shopping feed.
  • Both are free.

What is Locker?

Locker is a social shopping platform, built by Locker 2.0, Inc. It solves a specific and very real problem: you find products across a dozen stores and social feeds, and they end up scattered between open browser tabs, screenshots, and links pasted into your notes app. Locker gives those products one home, organized into collections you can keep private, share, or make giftable.

Locker is social by design. Collections live inside a public feed where other shoppers browse and follow, which is the core of how the product works.

It is free, and available on iPhone.

Where the two differ

Locker builds shopping around a public feed. Your collections sit inside a social graph where other shoppers browse, follow, and get inspired. If you want your saving to be social, that is the appeal.

Sorti takes the opposite position. Your library is private by default, and sharing is something you turn on for a specific folder when you want it, not the default state of everything you save. Most people save things they are not ready to broadcast: a gift they are planning, a piece they are not sure about, a place they might go.

The bigger gap is scope. The moment your saving habit extends past products, into the recipe you screenshotted, the restaurant a friend sent you, the article you meant to read, Locker cannot hold it. You need a second app, and the intent splits across tools again, which is the problem you were trying to solve in the first place.

What is Sorti?

Sorti organizes everything you save on your phone. Share a link, screenshot, or photo from any app and its AI reads the content, works out what it is, and files it into the right category with sub-categories underneath: Shopping, Recipes, Travel, Fashion, Restaurants, and more.

For shopping specifically, Sorti does what Locker does: extracts brand, price, and image, tracks the price daily, alerts you on drops, and watches for restocks on retailers like Zara and Shein. The difference is that those product saves live next to the Instagram reel that inspired them and the outfit board you were assembling, because that is how the decision actually gets made.

Sorti is on iOS and Android today, with a web version coming soon. It is 100% free.

Key differences explained

Products only vs. everything you save

This is the whole comparison in one line. Locker is a shopping tool with a social graph. Sorti is a saved-content layer that happens to be very good at shopping. If you only ever save products, Locker is a clean, focused choice with a community attached. If your camera roll also holds recipes, places, and outfit inspiration, those live somewhere else entirely with Locker, and nowhere at all if you never got around to organizing them.

A wishlist stores. Sorti acts.

This is the real difference, and it is bigger than any feature checklist. A wishlist is passive storage: you put something in, and it waits for you to remember it. Most saved items never get revisited, because the moment you were ready has to line up with the moment you happen to open the app.

Sorti treats a save as a signal of intent, and works to close it. It watches the price and pings you when it drops. It watches stock and tells you when your size is back. It resurfaces the restaurant you saved when you are making plans, and the recipe when you are deciding what to cook. The save is the beginning of something, not the end of it.

Built for the creator economy

Most of what people save today came from a creator. Sorti recognizes that automatically: when you save a piece from an Instagram reel or a TikTok, Sorti identifies the creator behind it and tags the save to them. Your library ends up organized not just by what something is, but by who put it in front of you.

For creators, that becomes Creator Mode: build a shoppable collection, share it with your audience with affiliate links attached, and see the analytics that actually matter, how many people saved an item, came back to it, and converted. Not views. Saved intent. That is the layer wishlist apps do not have, and it is free.

Private by default

Locker is built around a public shopping graph. Sorti is built around a private one. Your saves are yours, and sharing is a per-folder decision you make deliberately, not the default state of your library. Plenty of what people save is not meant to be seen: gifts they are planning, things they are still deciding on, ideas that are half-formed. Sorti assumes that, then gives you shared folders for the trip you are planning with friends.

Screenshots

Locker works from links. Sorti also reads screenshots: OCR pulls out the text, AI identifies what the image actually shows, and the save gets categorized without you typing anything. For a lot of people screenshots are the majority of what they save, especially from Instagram stories and TikTok, where there is often no clean link to grab.

Where saving actually happens

Sorti is built around the phone, because that is where discovery happens: mid-scroll on Instagram, in a TikTok comment section, in a link a friend sent on WhatsApp, in a screenshot you took at 1am. The iOS and Android share sheet catches all of it in one gesture, and Sorti reads screenshots too, which is the single biggest category of saved content and the one desktop tools never see. A web version is in progress.

Android

Locker is iOS plus browser. Sorti is on both iPhone and Android with the same feature set and sync between devices. If you are on Android, or share a household with someone who is, this decides it.

Context around the purchase

A wishlist tells you what you wanted. It does not tell you why. In Sorti, the dress sits next to the reel that made you want it, the outfit board you were building, and the similar piece you saved from another store two weeks ago. That context is usually what turns a saved item into an actual decision.

Who should use which app?

Choose Locker if...

Shopping is the entire job, you are on iPhone, and you specifically want your saving to be public and social rather than private.

Choose Sorti if...

You save more than products. You screenshot recipes, bookmark restaurants, save outfit reels, and want all of it organized in one place without doing the filing yourself. Choose Sorti if you use Android, if most of your saving happens on your phone, or if you want the shopping features without giving up everything else.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Sorti and Locker?

Locker is a social shopping app: products saved into collections inside a public feed, on iPhone. Sorti is a private library for everything you save. Products included, but also recipes, restaurants, travel spots, outfit inspiration, articles, and raw screenshots, all organized automatically by AI. Sorti also tracks prices on what you saved and runs on Android, which Locker does not.

Does Locker work on Android?

No. Locker is iPhone only. If you use Android, Sorti is the alternative: it covers the shopping use case with automatic price-drop and restock alerts, and adds everything else you save. Sorti runs on iPhone and Android today, with a web version coming soon.

Can Locker organize screenshots?

Locker is designed around product links from shopping sites and social platforms. It is not a screenshot organizer. Sorti reads screenshots with OCR and AI, understands what is in them (a recipe, a product, a place, an outfit), and files them automatically. If a large share of what you save lives in your camera roll as screenshots, that gap matters.

Which app is better for shopping specifically?

Sorti, for most people. It tracks the price of every product you save and pings you when it drops, and it watches for restocks in your specific size on retailers like Zara and Shein. It also keeps the product next to the Instagram reel that inspired it and the outfit board you were building, because that context is usually what turns a saved item into a decision. Locker is the choice if you want your shopping to be public and social rather than private.

Can I save recipes and places to Locker?

Locker is product-focused, so recipes, restaurants, and travel spots are outside what it is built for. Sorti treats each of those as a first-class content type: a recipe save gets ingredients and steps extracted, a restaurant save keeps the location and hours, a travel spot gets grouped with the rest of your trip planning.

Does Sorti work on desktop?

Sorti is mobile-first today, built around the iOS and Android share sheet, with a web version in progress. That is deliberate: the overwhelming majority of saving happens on a phone, mid-scroll, from Instagram, TikTok, and messages. That is where Sorti captures everything, including screenshots, which desktop tools never see.

Does Sorti do anything for creators?

Yes, and it is one of the biggest differences. Sorti automatically detects which creator inspired a save from Instagram or TikTok and tags the item to them, so your library is organized by who recommended it as well as what it is. Creators get Creator Mode: shoppable collections with affiliate links, plus analytics on saves, revisits, and conversions rather than just views. It is free.

Is Sorti just a wishlist app?

No, and that is the core distinction. A wishlist is passive storage that waits for you to remember it. Sorti treats every save as intent and works to close it: tracking prices and alerting you on drops, watching for restocks in your size, and resurfacing saves at the moment they become actionable. The save is a starting point, not a filing cabinet.

Which app should I choose?

Choose Sorti if you save from every app on your phone (Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp, Safari, plus screenshots), want products organized alongside recipes, places, and inspiration, want automatic price-drop alerts, prefer your saves private by default, or use Android. Choose Locker if shopping is the entire job and you specifically want it to be public and social.
