Note Search, Article Notes View, Notion Integration, and More!
Today, we’re launching our biggest updates to Notes since first introducing it on Instapaper. New features include Note Search, Article Notes View, an integration with Notion, and more!
Note Search
We finally added the ability to search the full-text of your highlights and notes on Instapaper. To search, navigate to the Notes section, tap the search bar, and enter your query.
On web we’re launching Advanced Note Search that allows you to filter by website domain, article title, or author.
Note Search is available with Instapaper Premium, and is currently launched on iOS, macOS, and Web.
We’re offering a free month of Instapaper Premium through November if you’d like to trial Note Search and other Premium features.
Article Notes View
When reading an article in Instapaper, you can easily see the notes for that article in one place by tapping “View Notes” in the article options menu.
Tapping a note will take you directly to the note on the page. We also included the ability to share all notes directly from the Article Notes view, rather than requiring you to scroll to the bottom of the article.
Article Notes View is available on iOS and macOS.
Grouped Notes by Article
This has been a long-time feature request, and we’re glad to finally launch grouped notes by article. By default, we will now show your notes organized by article on iOS and macOS. If you prefer the most recent notes first, you can tap the menu on the top right “…” and select “Sort by Recent”.
Grouped Notes by Article is available on iOS and macOS.
Notion Integration
We’re happy to announce our integration with Notion for sharing your liked articles and notes from Instapaper to Notion.
When you link your Notion account, Instapaper will create an Instapaper page containing an “Instapaper Articles” database. As you like articles and create notes, Instapaper creates one page per article in your database.
Each article page will contain all of the notes you’ve created for that URL.
Other Features & Improvements
We’ve also launched a few more features & improvements in this release:
- Redesigned Note options menu to be faster and better designed.
- Brought back “Shuffle Sort” after receiving many requests since removing it in the previous release.
- Fixed “Share All Notes” not showing for email saves on iOS.
- Fixed issues with language detection for text-to-speech.
- Added scroll to top shortcut on macOS (Cmd+Shift+↑).
- Other minor fixes and improvements.
As always, our roadmap is informed by your feature requests and bug reports. If you have any feature requests, questions, and/or issues, please let us via email at support@help.instapaper.com
