Have been using it with Vivaldi Browser for more than a year, not with the latest version of the browser I get a crash when opening the browser if the extension is active :(

Super useful for Readwise Reader users. I use it daily to collect and annotate the relevant pages I read while surfing.

Readwise is an awesome tool for remembering and reinforcing what you read. A lot of what we read now is from articles on the web and I love the way this extension works. It seemlessly allows you to highlight webpages and have them show up in readwise results. It also allows you to save to Readwise Reader for reading later when you come across a long article. I was on the fence with keeping my Readwise subscription when Reader was released and now I happily pay the subscription, it is very wor... Show more

The Readers DOES NOT read highlights that are made in Foxit Phantom. I imported 20 pdf articles that I had scanned into text readable pdfs in Foxit Phantom to test out the conversion of reading my highliughts. These articles had numerous highlights and comments in them. NONE of the highlights or comments were picked up by Readwise. Further, all images abd tables imported with the article are not selectable or highlightable by Readwise either. Very disappointing. The only good news... Show more

Highlights only go to the reader and never get exported to anywhere. Can't get the highligher importer or the reader importer to show as connected and can't get them to export content either. Useless.

Reader is an amazong product! Really useful to do deep dives on papers and especially of great help in youtube videos!

Please remove the shortcut Alt+R or add an option to the extension to disable or change it, it is used by other sites inside the page operations that even when readwise not allowed for such site still this shortcut active and can't use it on that site

One thing I really miss: Reader from Readwise has some RSS Feeds where it can not load the full article (due to paywalls). Now opening the page in the browser and press the extension button will NOT overwrite the page it loaded from the RSS feed previously. Instead I have to delete the article in reader and then re-add it with the extension again. So a button like "Update the saved version" would be great

The reading and voice-to-text app I've been waiting for. I used to be a Pocket Premium subscriber even though their audio was terrible, kept pausing/freezing. Reader does everything Pocket does and MORE. I love long walks now because I get to listen to my articles the same I listen to my audiobooks. I also manages my highlights and offers AI to summarize articles. It's a Feed reader too - so replaced my Feedly. LOVE.
