🆕 in Readwise: we have a new look!

We've completely overhauled the the design of the web and mobile apps

Plus much much more 👇

🎨 Readwise Brand — Believe it or not, we originally shipped Readwise in 2017 without a logo and we never bothered to make one... until now!

We hope you like it 🤞

📤 Export Integrations — ICYMI, you can now automatically sync your highlights with a variety of note-taking apps including Roam, Notion, and Evernote.

There's also now a (very beta) bulk Markdown option for Obsidian and others.

📥 New Sources — We've been continuously adding additional sources from which you can import highlights. Just a few recent ones:

PDFs
Google Play Books
Feedly
Airr (podcasts)
O’Reilly Learning
Hypothesis
Scribd

Here's our latest version of the "sync highlights" page :)

🔄 Public API — In addition to our hand-coded integrations, we now offer a public API which developers have started to harness for all kinds of creative applications

Docs: readwise.io/api_deets

(please hit up @homsiT and @tdkte if you wanna pair program😛)

🍎 Apple Books — Our MacOS app was seriously busted, but we just shipped a brand new, completely rewritten app you can use to quickly import all your Apple Book highlights.

💨 Database Performance — We reached the point where certain database queries were getting a little sluggish (especially when reviewing more highlights or the highlight feed).

But thanks to some backend wizardry, you hopefully notice the entire app is now much faster!

🆘 Help Center/FAQ — Our product became sufficiently deep that we needed to migrate to a proper help desk solution with a robust FAQ where you can find answers to most of your questions:

help.readwise.io

🤙 Customer Support — We started receiving more emails than we could handle so we were lucky enough to bring on our first rockstar customer support specialist (@anzi11ah) who has brought our average response time to under one day!

Reach out about anything :)

🍏 iOS Mobile App — We cleaned up the iOS mobile app design and continue to add improvements including an Action Extension for saving highlights from your mobile browser and (very soon!) a nifty iOS 14 widget

👽 Android Mobile App — We also ported our iOS mobile app to Android in full.

We seriously hope you like the new design, and please reach out with any/all feedback as always :)

Big shout out to our designer Sara and our newest dev @ArtemLitch for seriously overhauling basically every page on the site without losing any previous functionality 😍

Phew. This all is not to mention dozens of other features, and hundreds of bugs/improvements over the past couple months. We detailed a bunch more here:
