ReadHere

Great idea & just tested - super convenient to use! is there any way to ever make this work without wifi? ex. if i want to read the book on a flight w/o wifi

"No install, no account, no ecosystem" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in the best possible way. Most PDF tools bury you in upsells before you even open a file. The per-book journal is the feature I didn't know I needed - does it store in localStorage or IndexedDB? Curious how it survives a browser data clear.

This is awesome, congrats on the launch! Any plans to add a Calibre style sync to move books to other devices like Kindle or Xteink?

This is such a clean and thoughtful product. ❤️ I love that everything stays on my device, works offline, and doesn't require creating yet another account. Definitely something I'd actually use.One small feature I'd absolutely love: automatically remember where I left off in every PDF/EPUB. It would be amazing if I could close a book and, the next time I open it, it jumps right back to the exact page/position I was reading. That tiny detail would make the experience feel perfect. Great work !!

no account, no ecosystem is a stance not just a feature. the entire reading software space drifted into "we own your library now" over the last decade. kindle apple books kobo all want lock-in. choosing to not own anything of the user's by default is rare.the per-book journal is sneakily the strongest feature. that's where re-readers live. quick question for v2: when google drive sync ships, do journal entries sync separately from highlights or together? annotations leaking across devices is one thing. half-formed thoughts on chapter 3 is another vibe entirely.

Hi PH 👋I read on a Mac, a Windows laptop, and my phone, and no app could follow me across all three. Apple Books is stuck on Apple, Kindle on Amazon, and Calibre is a heavy desktop install. I just wanted to open my own PDFs and EPUBs anywhere and keep my highlights with me.So I made ReadHere. It runs entirely in your browser: read PDF and EPUB, highlight and take notes in both, keep a per-book journal, all of it offline. No account, no upload, your books stay on your device.It's free. To be honest about where it's at: everything is local to your browser right now. Syncing to your own Google Drive (yours, not mine) is what I'm building next, and there's a waitlist if that's your thing.Would love your honest feedback, especially on how it actually feels to read in. Thanks for taking a look 🙏
