Bookmarks allow you to mark important locations in a publication and go back to them.
You can also add a note to organize them.
Adding a bookmark
While reading, an Add a bookmark action is available in the upper right corner of the screen.
To add a bookmark:
- Tap on the middle of the screen or hover to the top of the screen if you're using a trackpad/mouse
- Tap on the Add a bookmark icon
Once a bookmark has been added, it will automatically replace the icon with a filled variant, indicated that the current position has been bookmarked.
Deleting a bookmark
If you're on a screen that has already been bookmarked, you'll notice a filled bookmarked icon in the upper right corner of the screen.
To remove a bookmark on a bookmarked page:
- Tap on the middle of the screen or hover to the top of the screen if you're using a trackpad/mouse
- Tap on the Remove a bookmark icon
To view your full list of bookmarks and delete them, read the next section on this page.
Managing bookmarks
If you'd like to see your full list of bookmarks and manage them:
- Tap on the middle of the screen or hover to the top of the screen if you're using a trackpad/mouse
- Tap or click on …
- Select Bookmarks in the menu
This will display the full list of bookmarks for your current publication, grouped based on the headings of the publication where each item contains the following information:
- Note (optional)
- Time interval since you added this bookmark (e.g. "2 hours ago")
- Progression in the publication (%)
With the search bar displayed at the top of this list, you can search for:
- Headings
- Notes
For example, if a bookmark has been added to "Chapter 1" with a note that says "Description of the main character", you can search for "chapter 1" or "main character" to find it (the search filter is not case sensitive).
You can also re-order these bookmarks with the action displayed in the upper right corner of this list:
- Progression (default)
- Last Added
- Last Edited
You'll only see the publication headings in which bookmarks are grouped when Progression is selected.
Editing a bookmark
While managing bookmarks, you can edit a bookmark by either:
- Swiping to the left
- Or tap/click on … to reveal a list of actions
In this menu, select Edit Note if you'd like to add a textual note to a given bookmark.
Once you've finished typing your note, tap/click on ✔️ to save your note.
If you like adding notes to your bookmarks, check the next section to always display the note dialog.
Reading options for bookmarks
With reading options, you can customize your reading experience in a way that works best for you.
For bookmarks, we provide a reading option that will always display the note dialog whenever you add a new bookmark.
If you don't need a note for a given bookmark, just leave the text empty and then tap/click on ✔️ to save your note.
To turn this option on:
- Tap on the middle of the screen or hover to the top of the screen if you're using a trackpad/mouse
- Tap or click on …
- Select Reading options in the menu
- Under bookmarks, tap/click on Show Note Dialog on New Bookmark
Reading options are global for all publications and formats, we'll use this preference in every publication that you'd like to read.
