Text converter tool for e-readers
Folio is a premium utility web app developed to help users turn web articles, news, and other text into a format that is suitable for e-readers. It turns them into a single consolidated issue that offers a magazine-like experience for readers, which can be set to be sent daily on a specific schedule. A free trial is also available for newcomers to check out.
Consolidated and ready to consume
Using Folio is pretty straightforward, and you can start adding copied text, URLs, or document files to it right away. It will then automatically typeset everything into a readable format you can use with your e-reader. It currently supports popular models like the reMarkable, Paper Pro, and the ubiquitous Amazon Kindle out of the box, with layout previews available.
You can choose between color or black-and-white, and you can then manually upload or set up an email forwarder so issues can be sent to your devices on a set schedule. All that said, it still needs more work, particularly with more image-heavy sites that it can’t handle properly, resulting in formatting errors in some instances.
A unique and novel solution
To sum up, if you’re the type who often saves articles and documents to read later and happen to be an avid e-reader user, Folio is an intriguing app worth checking out. It transforms them into a more interesting format that you can load on your device and read on the go. Give it a go and experience it for yourself.
