Leave a Review ReaderView
Must-have! Some features needed
-please add text search & copy all text functions.
Safari's own reader view often fails to work when an article's html isn't properly structured. This app has much higher compatibility and success rate of extracting the full article. The developer responds quickly to bug reports too.eggimage
Polished, simple and cheap
I constantly read articles online but the reader option of mobile safari does not always work.
This app works on many web sites and saves my articles for later.
Plus I can highlight and even publish online the readable and highlighted articles. Nice!LaurentDenoue
Rare find - great features
This seems to be a rare find. Allows me to republish an article in good reader view with a unique URL that i can share online. Neatly built app does a fine job of allowing you to save copies of your articles & allows saving in PDF format as well.
Wish more people would discover this app & the developer keeps improving the app.Show lessswash2002
I would buy it again!
—Simplified reading feature + highlight + comment any webpage.
—Very stable.
—Highlighting feature works like Kindle(select and drag).
—It can also replace your Pocket or Instapaper for Safari Mobile.
—Sync across devices through iCloud and upload to Evernote or OneNote
—Better than Liner app.
—Been using it for more than a year on iPad and iPhone and Strongly recommend it.
—Recommend it to grad students who need to store anything they read on web.
*WISH* 1. it could sync with Evernote and Dropbox with tags rather than manual uploads.Show lessSchabra
Very good for simple web page highlighting
This app does a great job of allowing simple 'iBooks' style highlighting of web pages. They can then be exported as PDF.
Simplicity is the app's best feature. It allows you to focus on reading, not worrying about having too many tools cluttering up the interface.Ando b
An App I Couldn't Live Without!
•ios 10 Update: The developer is amazing! He responds quickly to email questions and continues updating this app...making it an indispensable tool for me in moving towards digitizing all the paperwork in my life. When other more typical methods of saving fail, Reader View almost always comes to the rescue & helps me capture something I really need to save. I love it and couldn't live without it!
•An Update: I continue to love the app. I don't use it all that often but when I do it's so extremely helpful & saves me so much time.
I continue to find new ways that this app helps me too. I research & save a lot of data which can be difficult at times. This little utility helps me with that either directly to something like Evernote...or indirectly by some little tricks I've figured out. It's truly a little bit of genius code!
•My Original Review: I've been using this app for about a year and it fulfills a great need where other methods fail. That need is to save a clean, well formatted full-text copy of articles or webpages into Evernote. Or sometimes I want to just email it to someone.
Reader View makes that possible when other alternatives like Safari Reader or Instapaper fail. If one of my other go-to methods can't save something I save it via Reader View using the Share extension in Safari (you need to enable this first.)
An added bonus is that I can also highlight segments in several different colors to draw attention to specific parts I want the person I'm sending it to to notice. The app is great and is always one of the first I install on new devices.Show lessvsatips
Great app
Exactly was I was looking for. Makes the articles on my phone much easier to read without having to use a bookmarklet!Sectionsix
Great app!
Great app and has a solid developer behind it!swhitlow
Amazing app for the visually impaired
I am visually impaired. In particular, I have keratoconus, which comes with reduced vision, which decays during the day as my eyes get tired.
Now, unfortunately Safari's built in reader view does not always work and Readability requires the installing of a clunky JavaScript bookmarklet.
Come in ReaderView, a super elegant action extension, that, so far, always works like a charm. I wish I had found it sooner. Thank you!Show lessRamón Manuel
Outstanding
Sadly, with iOS 10, this app no longer works with Apple's News app. So I barely use it anymore.
Old review:
This app is outstanding. One of those apps that make you wonder why apple didn't implement it first. I mean, why does apple's version only work in safari?? I find the place I use this app the most is in apple's news app. Many thanks to the developer.Show lessWackadoodle
