Sorti vs thingz (formerly Likepost) - Which app should keep what you save?

Last updated September 2026

thingz, the app that was called Likepost until September 2026, is a social app for sharing recommendations with friends. Sorti is built for you: it organizes what you save into categories and sub-categories and tells you when a saved product drops in price or is back in stock. Free on iPhone and Android.

TL;DR - Quick verdict

  • Pick thingz if you want a social app: posting recommendations, seeing what friends save, and following public collections.
  • Pick Sorti if you want your own saves organized for you, down to sub-categories, with alerts when something you saved gets cheaper or comes back in stock.
  • Pricing: both are free, on iPhone and Android.

Why compare Sorti and thingz?

Both apps start from the same problem: most of what you save on Instagram and TikTok gets lost. They answer it in opposite directions. thingz turns saves into posts for your friends. Sorti turns saves into something that works for you later.

If you are searching for Likepost, you are in the right place: Likepost renamed itself thingz in September 2026. Same app, same company.

What is thingz (formerly Likepost)?

thingz is made by Likepost Inc. The app launched on the App Store in October 2025 as Likepost and was renamed thingz in its September 18, 2026 update (“Likepost is now thingz!”). It is listed in the App Store’s Social Networking category and runs on iPhone (iOS 18 or later) and Android.

You save places, products, videos, links, and ideas from the apps you use, and thingz sorts them into searchable collections and adds details like addresses, hours, ingredients, and where to buy. Since February 2026 the app has been built around its social side: adding friends, commenting, marking posts as recommended or want to try, a feed of friends’ activity, public curated collections, and Your Loop, which suggests picks from your saves and your friends’ saves based on where you are.

What thingz does well

thingz is good at the social part of saving. Asking Your Loop for dinner tonight and getting answers from what your friends actually tried is a clever idea, and marking a place as “recommend” or “want to try” gives a save more meaning than a bookmark.

Our view is simply that most saves are personal before they are social. A jacket you are waiting to go on sale, a recipe for Sunday, a clinic a friend mentioned: you want those organized and ready for you, not posted.

Key differences explained

A personal library, not a social network

thingz lists itself under Social Networking, and its updates since February 2026 have been about friends, comments, public collections, and posting recommendations. Sorti is a lifestyle app for your own saves. Nothing you save is posted unless you choose to share a folder, and there is no feed to keep up with.

Price-drop and back-in-stock alerts

thingz adds where to buy a product when you save it. Its App Store listing and release notes do not describe alerts when that price changes. Sorti watches every product you save and sends a push notification when the price drops, and it can also tell you when an item is back in stock.

Categories and sub-categories, built for you

thingz sorts saves into collections. Sorti builds categories and the sub-categories inside them on its own, so a recipe lands in Recipes and in the right sub-category inside it, without you setting anything up.

Same platforms, same price

Both apps are free and both run on iPhone and Android, so the choice comes down to what you want your saves to do.

Who should use which app?

Choose thingz if…

You enjoy recommending places and products to friends, want to see what they are saving, and like following public collections.

Choose Sorti if…

You want a private place where everything you save is sorted for you, down to sub-categories, and where saved products tell you when they get cheaper or come back in stock.

What real users say about Sorti

★★★★★ Highly rated on the App Store and Google Play

“Easy to let Sorti use AI to sort and name my screenshots saving me a lot of time doing it myself.”

- Gali Nickel, App Store review

“I’ve been trying to find a way to organize all my bookmarks, links, videos, articles, etc. and have tried several second brain apps. But Sorti just organizes it all for me, no prompting for summaries or tags, no manual sorting. This is what all other second brain apps should have been.”
