Integrations, capabilities, types (connected/using)
Reader app
- RSS & Web Feeds
- Newsletter feature
- can use a special email address to sign up to newsletter with and then you get email newsletters as if they were RSS feeds
- Safari extension can save URLs and highlight article text and sync to Obsidian
- Is there a way of getting Readwise to import to Obsidian even if I don't highlight something in the source?
- Is there a way to have better categories in Obsidian - e.g. not just articles, books, and podcasts - something like videos, tweets, toots, etc.
Web pages
- Works well, automatic
- Decent, manual process only - need to use their mac app and run it to manually sync.
- No direct way
- If you have the Kindle version, you can clip in Audible, or listen in the Kindle app and clip, in which case those clips get synced to the Kindle version and I think get synced to Readwise.
- auto
- manual - but just a button that you push in readwise dashboard
Physical Books with highlights
- Take picture of a paper book with the mobile app and it will save highlights
Supplemental Books (any book)
- manual way to add any book and it will generate and suggest highlights to add to your library
PDFs
- THere's a way but not tested
- auto - including saving snips from others via the feed thing
