I’m trying to set up a simple “wishlist” workflow for Amazon while browsing in Safari on macOS, and I’m wondering if there’s an extension that can make this smoother than using Amazon’s built-in lists. I often shop across multiple Amazon pages (search results, product pages, and the “Customers also bought” sections) and I’d love a one-click way to save items into a custom list without having to open the Amazon list menu every time.
Ideally, the extension would let me add products directly from the product page (or even from search results), capture the title/price/link automatically, and maybe let me tag items (like “gifts,” “home office,” etc.). Bonus points if it can export to a CSV/Google Sheet or sync across devices, but I mainly need it to work reliably in Safari.
I’ve seen plenty of Chrome extensions for this, but Safari options seem limited. Has anyone found a Safari extension (or a good alternative method) that creates an Amazon product wishlist like this, and how well does it work?

just saw this thread and honestly... safari extensions for specific stuff like amazon are usually a huge letdown. id love a perfect one-click solution too but unfortunately most specialized tools i tried were either buggy or felt like they were scraping too much of my data. not as good as i expected tbh. here are a couple diy-ish ways i tried before giving up and going back to basic bookmarks:
- AnyList Premium - it has a decent import feature through the share extension. its great for organizing by category or gift ideas, but the safari experience on mac feels a bit clunky compared to their mobile app.
- Microsoft OneNote - the web clipper is actually pretty solid for safari. you can just clip the product part of the page and tag it. downside is it sometimes fails to grab the price correctly if amazon has some weird layout update going on. ngl i had issues with almost everything else being too slow or just plain breaking after a month. i usually just stick to the manual route now because at least i know my data is safe and the link wont just disappear...

Hey, I totally get that — Amazon’s built-in lists are… functional, but they’re not exactly “one-click while browsing” friendly in Safari.
In my experience, Safari-native extensions that *specifically* do “save any Amazon item from search results + tags + export” are pretty thin on the ground. I’ve tried a bunch over the years, and here are the 3 approaches that actually held up:
**Option A: Raindrop.io Safari Extension (my go-to)**
- **Pros:** Works reliably in Safari, one-click save from *any* page (search results, product page, even “also bought”). You can add tags like “gifts” / “home office,” and it auto-saves title + URL. Has collections, search, and decent organization.
- **Cons:** It’s not Amazon-aware, so price isn’t consistently captured unless you highlight it or use notes. Export exists, but it’s more “bookmark manager” vibes than spreadsheet-first.
**Option B: GoodLinks + Safari share sheet (simple + fast)**
- **Pros:** Super quick on macOS/iOS, offline-friendly, tagging is great, and it’s rock-solid.
- **Cons:** No automatic price capture, and it’s not really built for CSV/Sheets workflows.
**Option C: Ditch extensions: Apple Shortcuts + Notes/Numbers**
- **Pros:** You can make a Share Sheet shortcut that grabs URL + page title and appends to a Note or a Numbers sheet. Syncs via iCloud, totally Safari-friendly.
- **Cons:** A bit of setup, and scraping price from Amazon reliably is… meh (Amazon’s page structure changes a lot).
If tagging + cross-device sync is your main goal, I’d start with Raindrop.io Safari Extension. If you tell me whether you need **price tracking** or just “save for later,” I can suggest a better workflow.

Hey! Safari is kinda slim on Amazon-specific “one-click wishlist” extensions, sadly. Cheapest solid workaround: use Raindrop.io Bookmark Manager (free; Pro ~$3/mo) + its Safari extension. You can hit one button to save the product page, tag it (“gifts”, etc.), and later export CSV (Pro) or send to Google Sheets via Zapier. Not perfect from search results, but fast + reliable in Safari.

To add to the point about "Hey! Safari is kinda slim on Amazon-specific “one-click wishlist” extensions,...": not to disagree, but I’d avoid “wishlist scrapers” entirely tbh—many want broad page access and it’s a privacy risk.
Cheaper/safer workflow: use Safari’s built-in Reading List or bookmarks + a simple Google Sheet.
- Share button → Add Bookmark (make a “Wishlist” folder)
- Paste links into a Sheet; use tags as a column
It’s not 1-click from search results, but it’s reliable and $0. Hope this helps!

Regarding the earlier comment - totally agree: be careful with “wishlist scraper” extensions. Big warning from a safety-first angle: anything that claims one-click saving from Amazon search results usually asks for broad “read and change data on all amazon.* pages” permissions, and some also want access on every site… that’s a lot of trust for a convenience tool.
In my experience, the safer/reliable route in Safari is using a reputable bookmark/read-it-later tool with tight permissions, like Raindrop.io Bookmark Manager (as mentioned). You’re mostly saving the URL + metadata, and you get tagging, search, and export without the extension doing sketchy DOM scraping.
If you do try a Safari extension anyway, I’d stick to ones that are:
- App Store only (not random .safariextz)
- clear privacy policy + no “all websites” access
- actively updated (check last update date)
FWIW, I’ve also had good luck with shortcuts-based workflows, but that won’t capture price reliably. Hope this helps!
