- Readwise helps thousands of readers get the most out of their digital highlights.
They are a beloved app used by thousands of people. Their app pulls in and syncs highlights from Kindle, Instapaper, Pocket, iBooks, and more.
Their app also integrates with note apps like Evernote, Notion, Roam…and now…Obsidian.
Dan and Erin will be joining me and we are going to focus on their new integration with Obsidian. I’ll ask them my questions. They will screenshare. I will screenshare. And they will field your questions.
Very exciting!

~12:00 Append is a killer feature IMO. You don’t realise how useful it is until you don’t have it at your disposal
Yeah very nice to have that undisturbed peace of mind
Sounds great.
The power user features should be highlighted more. Amazing feature set.
That they are, Michael!
When will the Readwise plug-in support the Obsidian IOS Applications? Currently it only functions on the Desktop applications.
Way too expensive. I know there are some other features but not going to pay another $8/m for an Obsidian plugin.
