After you confirm your email, Readsira opens a short tour of three steps. It sets a few defaults and points you to the fastest way to fill your library. You can skip all of it and change everything later.

Steps​

  1. The first page asks What brings you here? Pick one answer:

    • Moving from Pocket or another app: you start with the import page, and the Library (Inbox first) is your home view.
    • Following news and blogs with RSS: you pick topics and a starter pack of feeds, and your home view is Feeds.
    • Research for work or study: Projects and Radar are turned on, and Projects opens with a new project ready to name. This answer is offered only when Projects are available to you.
    The first welcome question, What brings you here, with three choices and the Skip and Continue buttons.

  2. Select Continue. Or select Skip to go straight to the next step.

  3. The step Save your first link asks for a link. Paste the address of any article, video, podcast episode or PDF and select Save. Readsira keeps a clean copy and a small page confirms Saved to Inbox.

    The Save your first link step with a link field and the Save button.

  4. Under the field, two cards offer other ways to start:

    • Bring your library opens the import page for Pocket, Omnivore, Raindrop, Readwise, Instapaper or browser bookmarks.
    • A card for the browser extension, or Follow sites with RSS when no extension link is set up on your server.

  5. Select Go to Readsira to leave the tour and open Readsira.

  • The answer in step 1 only decides which view opens first. Nothing is locked.
  • Other ways to save a link are in Save your first article.
