MUST HAVE
This is the app I’ve always wanted . 10:/10 the AND IT SYNCS ACROSS ALL DEVICES!
An amazing app!
Its integration with Obsidian solved a lot of my problems and been a happy user . Well done, guys
It’s free and it works!
I have Omnivore syncing between my iPhone, iPad and Mac. It works like you think it should and it can share with Obsidian if you’re into that awesome PKM tool as well!
great
Very convenient to use
The best free read-it-later app
I’m getting fed up with these 5-bucks-a-month apps and really love this open-source read-it-later app. It integrates well with knowledge mgmt apps like obsidian and roam. This is now my only read it later app. Highly recommended!
Love it!
Really great, especially the integration with Obsidian. The Mac app really isn't great, but the web app is. Instead of using the Mac app, I just have a shortcut that opens the web app. Honestly, a web wrapper might actually be better.
Elegant
simple, clean and effective.
Its the least friction I have when I need to capture notes. Super easy on apple devices

It’s okay. Could be better.
I’ve been using this app for a few days ever since it was recommended by The Morning Brew in their newsletter. Initially gravitated towards this because I have hundreds of tabs in Safari open for articles I want to read at some point, but often end up forgetting about— so having the articles and pages saved in a dedicated space for it? It appealed to me. I also loved the idea of having my morning newsletters sent there instead of my email address. It all seemed so convenient! Well. Key word is “seemed”. It’s not that the app is broken or buggy. It does its job, it’s just mediocre at what it does. For one, every time you save an article through sharing a webpage, it seems like the app goes through what’s loaded on the page and formats that inside of itself. That’s a cool way to do it…except if you’re looking at an article with images that haven’t loaded by the time you save it (which often add important context to the information), or if by chance a pop up you don’t notice appears and that’s now what shows up in the app (instead of the content you desire), or if webpages do that weird thing where you click on one link and it redirects you to another article and now that other article is appearing in the app under the title of the original article you wanted to read. It’s simple and in theory it works but in practice there are a lot of flaws. Then, the newsletter feature has yet to work for me. I’m not sure if it’s because the newsletters I’ve signed up for using the generated email have filtered out the email as a bot account or what…but I’ve signed up for a few and despite them appearing in my email inboxes, they won’t show up in the app. The closest I’ve gotten is manually saving the newsletters in the app under a ‘Newsletter’ label, which kind of defeats the purpose. Also, when you finish reading an article (100%) the only indication the green (100%) next to the title. The articles don’t move to the bottom of the list, pushing the unfinished articles to the top. They stay right where they are and there’s no way to filter them, which is an annoyingly small quality of life feature which would make using this app way more intuitive. Finally, (and this is more of a “testing the limits” thing) although you can save social media posts to the app to read for later (such as Instagram and Youtube), there’s no active embedding inside of the app. There are some social media posts that are screenshots of books and other information I would like to read later, and there are some YouTube videos I’d like to save for later outside of the inbuilt features in those apps (because who really uses those?) I was trying to see if this app could be use more dynamically than just saving articles and books but still providing the same value of feeding information within a dedicated information consumption time. I know that wasn’t the intended purpose of the app, but it would be a useful additional use. However, the best I can get is maybe one picture and a link that frustratingly won’t load. It’s a little disappointing considering you CAN save these things in the app, you just can’t. It’s really not a bad app. At it’s basic function, it can do what it claims. It’s just underwhelming at the moment. However I think it can improve, and I’ll still try to use it as best as I can.

Amazing App
I love this app. I have been looking for a good speech to text app for the articles I read on the web and haven't been able to find a good one that is also easy to use and good at extracting the text without also reading outloud irrelevant html. This is a game changing app for for how I read the web!

Excellent! 😙🤌
If you haven’t tried Omnivore yet, you’re missing out on a great read-it-later experience in a FOSS app that has highly responsive developers who ship frequent updates.
