A 100% local-first read-it-later: save a clean offline copy of any article and read it later in a calm reader. No account. Save it now, read it later — even offline. ReadNest is a calm, 100% local read-it-later app: one click stores a clean copy of any article on your own device, so your reading list is fast, private, and never at the mercy of a service that shuts down. No account. No cloud. No tracking. Nothing you save ever leaves your browser. WHY READNEST • Offline copies that last — keeps the actual article text on your device, so it survives paywalls, link rot, and apps that get discontinued. • Private by design — no sign-in, no servers, no analytics, no remote code. ReadNest only reads a page when YOU click Save, using the minimal activeTab permission. • Yours to keep — export anything, anytime. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Save in one click — toolbar button, right-click “Save to ReadNest”, or Alt+Shift+S. • Read beautifully — distraction-free reader with light / sepia / dark themes, serif or sans, adjustable text size and width, and a progress bar that remembers where you left off. • Highlight & annotate — select text to highlight in five colors and attach your own notes. • Organize — Inbox, Archive and Favorites, plus free-form tags. • Find anything — free full-text search across titles, content, tags and your notes. • Export — Markdown, EPUB, HTML, JSON backup or CSV, for one article or your whole library. LEAVING POCKET OR INSTAPAPER? Import your list in one click: ReadNest reads Pocket (HTML/CSV) and Instapaper (CSV) exports, plus its own JSON backups — all processed locally. PERMISSIONS, IN PLAIN ENGLISH • activeTab + scripting — read the current page’s article only when you choose to save it. • storage — remember your settings on this device. • side panel — show your library. • context menus — add the right-click “Save to ReadNest”. ReadNest requests no host permissions, no downloads permission, and makes no network requests.
