It's decent, but seems overpriced.

It works fine but's too much expensive.

Readwise has totally transformed my reading routine! It's this amazing app that pulls in all my highlights from Kindle, Pocket, and other places, then zaps me a daily email with those highlights to really drill in what I've read. It's just a few minutes a day, but it's like magic for remembering stuff.

What's super cool is how it plays nice with apps like Obsidian, letting me stash my highlights there, plus the Readwise Reader feature is a game-changer for listening to articles when I'm on the move. At $8 a month, Readwise is a steal. It's made remembering all the stuff I read so much easier. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking to up your reading game.

What is Readwise?

Readwise helps you get the most out of what you read by making it fun & easy to revisit your highlights from all your favorite reading platforms in one place.

Quickly synchronize your highlights from Kindle, Apple Books, Instapaper, Pocket, Medium, Goodreads, and even paper books. Then start building a daily review habit using the app and daily email. By reviewing your highlights every day, you'll retain dramatically more and you'll finally stop forgetting all the details from books you just finished!

ACTUALLY USE YOUR HIGHLIGHTS

Highlighting is great, but why bother if you're never going to see any of your highlights again? Readwise makes it easy to quickly liberate all your highlights into one place, ensuring that you'll actually see and use them, including highlights from:

• Amazon Kindle • Apple iBooks • Instapaper • Pocket • Medium • Goodreads • Twitter • Physical Books (using OCR) • Manual Input • CSV Upload

STOP FORGETTING WHAT YOU READ

How often do you finish a book, only to forget the key ideas two weeks later? We don't remember things by just reading them once.

Readwise solves this problem using scientifically proven learning techniques called Spaced Repetition and Active Recall. Readwise resurfaces the right highlights at the right times using a daily email and an app. Readwise even makes it possible to convert your best highlights into flashcards for added retention.

TAG, NOTE, SEARCH, AND ORGANIZE

With your highlights all in one place, Readwise enables you to organize and connect these ideas in new ways. Use search to find a highlight instantly; use tag to organize highlights within your library; use notes to add your own annotations.

HIGHLIGHT PAPER BOOKS

Readwise also makes it possible to take highlights from your physical books and papers using your phone’s camera. Just snap a pic, highlight with your finger, and have your favorite highlights saved forever.
