About the app
Meet Readwise
Readwise connects to ActionClip so you can send selected text without copying and pasting it manually.
Included actions
Choose only what you need
This integration adds one focused Readwise action to ActionClip.
| Action | Outcome |
|---|---|
| Save Highlight | Save selected prose as a Readwise highlight. |
Workflow
How it works
- Select the text you want to use.
- Choose your Readwise action from ActionClip.
- ActionClip sends the selection to Readwise and opens the app for you.
| Connection | Local app integration |
|---|---|
| Result | Opens or updates Readwise |
| Configuration | Every action is enabled separately |
| Internet | Depends on how Readwise is configured |
Before you add it
Requirements and privacy
- Before you start: Enable Online Actions and save your Readwise access token in this action's settings.
- Your selected text: Sends the selected text and available source page metadata directly to Readwise over HTTPS. The token stays in the macOS Keychain.
Nothing is sent until you click the action. ActionClip never runs this integration quietly in the background.
