Add-on summary

Readeck is a simple web application that lets you save the precious readable content of web pages you like and want to keep forever. See it as a bookmark manager and a read later tool.

This is the browser extension that lets you save pages directly from your browser.

Send the content as you see it

Sometimes, Readeck can't directly save an article. There can be many reasons for that; the service is blocked by a website or it's a subscription only website.

The extension solves these issues by sending the full content of the page you want to save, including images.

Select content

In other occasions, you might need to save only a specific part of a page. If you select some text and click on the Readeck button, only the selected part will be sent to Readeck. You can even save multiple selections at once!

User reviews

The addon works well, although I have two issues (not really issues- more like preferences): 1) I'd prefer the beahvior to be similar to the Pockt addon- click, add tags, or not- and then the page is added. This would be preferred to the current sidebar opening 2) The extension doesn't recognize a fair number of web ages as such, and asks me to save a selection. I'd prefer that the page is simply saved as is. The extension is GREATLY appreciated.
