Free · In-App Purchases

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. ______________________ “Reader has completely redesigned the read-it-later app. It’s gorgeous and blazingly fast. In many ways, it’s the Superhuman of reading — you won’t want to read anywhere else.” Rahul Vohra (Founder of Superhuman) “I spend my entire day reading, researching, & writing and Readwise is the reading tool I’ve been waiting for. The perfect complement to my writing workflow. Absolute game changer.” Packy Mccormick (Author of Not Boring) “The Readwise reading app is the first read-it-later app that enables a true workflow for serious readers. As an ex-Pocket /Instapaper power user, it's hard to imagine ever going back.” Fitz Maro (Creative Technology Lead at Pinterest) ______________________ 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 • Twitter threads • PDFs • 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. ______________________ If you’re not already a Readwise subscriber, you can get a free 30-day trial with no credit card upfront.

  • This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Readwise MCP & CLI — The (new, improved) Readwise MCP server gives Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible AI direct access to your Readwise highlights, and the full text of all your Reader documents. Once connected, you can ask your AI to search your notes, answer questions using your own reading history as context, or even make changes to your Reader library for you. We also pre-built AI workflows like inbox triage, feed catchup, a custom book review that is aware of related context in your vault, and a quiz mode for testing yourself on recent reads. GPT-5.4 Support — If you bring your own OpenAI API key for custom Ghostreader prompts, you can now use GPT-5.4. Improved Performance — Artem completed a major platform upgrade that touches most of the app. Expect better speed and stability throughout. Improved Reading Progress — Artem and Lior enhanced the reading progress modal for EPUBs to show more detail at a glance. You can now choose between percent, page number, time left in chapter, time left in book, or hidden and each option previews the current value right in the picker. Restore All from Trash — Mati added a "Restore All" button to the trash view on both web and mobile. Improved Search Indexing — Piotr fixed an issue where profiles with extremely large documents (like multi-volume epub collections at 50MB+) could cause issues with search indexing. Large document batches are now split by size, so even the biggest libraries should index smoothly. Fixed Tag Trimming — Adam improved server-side trimming for tag names, so tags created via the API or share extension can no longer end up with trailing spaces. Modify Action Tags — You can now modify or remove header markers after creating them, and the associated sections and auto-generated tags update to match. As part of this change, Ibai also fixed an issue where .h1/.h2 header action tags and .c1/.c2 concatenation tags could interfere with exports. Fixed Double Listen — Mati fixed a bug where long documents like EPUBs showed "Listen" twice in the action menu when Ghostreader was turned off. "Appearance" is now the alternate. Parsing Updates — Mati improved the speed and reliability of our YouTube parsing and fixed a bug where YouTube channel URLs were being treated as individual videos. Krzys improved page fetching on a wide variety of sites. Several engineers worked at fixing a variety of glitches with Twitter/X saving. Piotr fixed an issue where RSS feeds from certain sites were saving broken content instead of the actual feed. Mati fixed an issue where internal marker text was appearing at the bottom of emails in original view mode. Previously: Fixed Highlight Navigation — Tapping highlights in the side panel should now take you to the relevant part of the document. Podcast Transcripts — share any podcast episode from Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Overcast into Reader, and it will be saved as a permanent, highlightable transcript. Sticky Tablet Sidebars — You can now keep sidebars open while using Reader on tablets. In documents, opening the table of contents or notebook sidebar shrinks the reading view, so you can still scroll and highlight text. In your Library and Feed, the sidebar stays open so you can browse documents with the same context you’d see on the web version of the app. Better Offline Control — Choose which categories of documents to keep available offline from the offline documents section of the Account screen. A new status shows whether a location is currently downloading. Improved Action Sheets — Action sheets should now float nicely in the center of tablet screens, instead of at the bottom. Using “find in document” and similar options should be easier now. Our full ePubs v2 feature includes 10x+ better performance on books, a dedicated long-form reading UI, and so much more. Our goal is to have Reader be the best app in the world for reading books (in addition to other formats), and this project is a big step towards that.
