What is Readwise Reader?
Readwise Reader is a powerful extension of the Readwise platform designed to enhance your digital reading experience. Reader brings together all your reading materials—articles, newsletters, EPUBs, PDFs, videos, tweets, and more—into one unified, customizable platform and seamlessly integrates with Readwise. With Reader, you can highlight and annotate text as you read, and all your highlights and notes will automatically sync to your Readwise library for easy organization and review.
Where should I start?
Great question! With so many options for importing, exporting, and customizing, getting set up with Reader can feel daunting. To help ease the mental load of a new system, here are some ideas:
- Import existing content from Pocket, Instapaper, Feedly, or other platforms.
- Add new content using the browser extension, mobile share sheet, or drag-and-drop file upload.
- Subscribe to RSS feeds to get new content in your account every day.
- Customize Reader's appearance to suit your reading preferences—make the text bigger, turn on paged scroll, switch to dark mode, and more.
- Start reading and annotate as you go with simple highlighting and note-taking functionality.
