FAQ

Does it work on every website?

Some websites block automated fetching or require authentication. Public pages that return HTML typically work best. JavaScript-rendered SPA pages may not capture full content.

Is my data stored?

Converted Markdown is generated locally in your browser. Fetched HTML is used for the conversion flow and is not stored persistently.

What is Readability mode?

Readability is a content extraction algorithm developed by Mozilla (same as Firefox Reader View). It intelligently identifies the main content and removes ads, navigation, sidebars, and other non-content elements.
