Readwise Reader

Readwise Reader is the first read-it-later app built specifically for power readers. If you’ve ever used Instapaper or Pocket, Reader is like those except it’s built for 2024 and brings all your reading into one place including: web articles, email newsletters, RSS feeds, Twitter threads, PDFs, EPUBs and more.

ALL YOUR READING IN ONE PLACE

Stop juggling half a dozen reading apps. Reader brings all your content into one place including:

• Web articles
• Email newsletters
• RSS feeds

• EPUBs


You can even import your existing library from Pocket and Instapaper and RSS feeds from Feedly, Inoreader, Feedbin, etc.

POWERFUL HIGHLIGHTING FOR POWER READERS

We believe that annotations are the key to getting more out of what you read. So we’ve developed highlighting as a first-class feature inside Reader. Highlight images, links, rich text, and more. On any device.


READER WILL CHANGE THE WAY YOU READ

We’ve reinvented the digital reading experience to apply the power of software to the printed word. This includes TEXT-TO-SPEECH (listen to any document narrated with the lifelike voice of a real human), GHOSTREADER (your integrated copilot of reading enabling you to ask questions, define terms, simplify complex language, and more), and FULL-TEXT SEARCH (find whatever you’re looking for, even if you only remember a single word).


FLEXIBLE SOFTWARE TO FIT YOUR UNIQUE NEEDS

Your personal interests, your professional projects, your way of doing things — they’re unique. Reader is your home base for the varied documents in your life, customizable to match the way your brain works.

PDFs for work, articles for your newsletter, and ebooks for pleasure all live comfortably side-by-side. No more juggling dozens of apps.


INTEGRATED WITH YOUR FAVORITE TOOLS

Your annotations should flow effortlessly from your reading app into your writing tool of choice. Instead you waste hours reformatting, reorganizing, and repeating. Reader eliminates this hassle. Reader seamlessly connects to Readwise which exports to Obsidian, Notion, Roam Research, Evernote, Logseq, and more


READ ANYWHERE, ANYTIME

Access all of your content from any of your devices with everything in sync. Even offline. Reader syncs across all platforms, including a powerful, local-first web app and iOS. You can even highlight the open web with the Reader browser extensions.

Previously:

* You can now view Enhanced Transcripts for youtube videos -- they'll be capitalized correctly with punctuation, paragraph breaks, etc. Perfect for highlighting your favorite moments from any video :)


* Highlighting Upgrades – You should now notice several subtle upgrades to the highlighting experience ​including better grabbing of leading and trailing punctuation, smoother cross-page highlighting in Paged Scroll mode on mobile, and, most importantly, the ability to resize existing highlights!

* Ghostreader v2​​​​​​ – You can now customize the default Ghostreader ​prompts as well as craft your own ​creating the potential for all kinds of clever AI use cases while you read. As part of this, Ghostreader is now much easier to access on mobile and we've refreshed the default prompts.

* You can now export your highlights for any document to your clipboard or share sheet on mobile.

* Many fixes to PDFs, including their progress tracking and showing their cover images

* We've reverted the default behavior in the reading view where you need to tap the bottom to open the action menu. You can still re-enable this behavior in your reading settings though.

* Highlighting should now be a lot more smooth/natural in this version :) No longer struggle to include punctuation or make the selection work just right.

* An improved style sheet for customizing every detail of how you want you want to read.

* You can now toggle "original styles" on your ePub books, which should improve their formatting quite a bit.

* We've completely revamped the search feature to be a lot more fast & accurate. Find any document in your library, instantly.

* Many Text to Speech improvements:
* TTS will now save your position in the background while listening
* TTS will not longer mistakenly change your speed
* TTS indicator will fail less frequently when wrapping words at the end of paragraph
* TTS is a lot faster and more accurate on long documents (eg books)
* TTS player bar now takes less space, with new (more intuitive) buttons when you scroll away from the tracked word

* Nicer loading state (showing the cover) when opening books

* High contrast highlights for eink devices (can be enabled in settings)

* Subtle improvements to how taps and swipes open the UI while reading to make the experience feel more sturdy

* Improved reading position saving between sessions when paginated

* You can now read any document in the Paged Scroll mode! This is especially useful for books, where you can now simply tap the left or right edges of the screen to jump to the last/next page of content, rather than constantly scrolling. This should be familiar to reading in apps like Kindle, except it has our own innovation that allows you to highlight across pages effortlessly.
