Safari Reading List Import

Your Safari Reading List,
finally searchable with AI

Export your Reading List from Safari in one step. Every article comes into Clip with full text and AI search — so you can find what you saved years ago just by describing it.

Why Safari's Reading List isn't enough

No real search

Safari can search titles but not the content of the articles. If you forgot the title, the article is effectively gone.

Links disappear

URLs go offline, articles get paywalled, websites shut down. Safari only stores the link — not the content. Clip saves the full text.

Locked in Apple's ecosystem

Your Reading List only works inside Safari. Clip works everywhere — Chrome, Firefox, the web — and syncs across all your devices.

Import in 3 steps

1

Export from Safari

Open Safari on Mac. Go to File → Export Bookmarks. A file named Bookmarks.html saves to your Downloads. It includes both your bookmarks and your full Reading List.

2

Upload to Clip

Open the Clip extension sidebar or go to clip.pyckle.co. Navigate to Settings → Import → Safari Reading List, select the HTML file, and hit Import.

3

Search everything in plain English

Clip fetches the full content of each article in the background. Minutes later, ask it anything: "that recipe with tahini from last year" or "the Swift concurrency article I saved" — and get the answer from your own reading history.

What Clip gives you instead

Everything your Reading List was trying to be, plus AI on top.

AI search that understands meaning

Search by concept, not just keywords. "That article about sleep and memory" finds the right article even if it was titled "Neuroscience of Rest."

Full article text — permanently

Clip saves the content, not just the link. Paywalls, deletions, and link rot don't affect what you've already saved.

Chat with your reading history

Ask "What did that productivity article say about deep work?" Clip answers from the actual saved text, with a link to the original.

Distraction-free reader

Read any saved article in a clean, dark-mode reader with adjustable fonts. No ads, no cookie banners, no paywalls.

Frequently asked questions

How do I export my Safari Reading List?

In Safari on Mac, go to File → Export Bookmarks. Safari saves a Bookmarks.html file that includes both your bookmarks and your full Reading List.

Does it import my full Reading List or just the links?

After uploading the HTML file, Clip visits each URL in the background and saves the full article text. You end up with the actual content — not just the URL — so AI search can find things by what they say.

What about paywalled articles?

Clip saves whatever is publicly accessible. Paywalled content won't have full text, but the link and title are still saved and searchable. Dead links are skipped cleanly.

Can I also import Safari bookmarks — not just Reading List?

Yes. Safari's export file includes both bookmarks and the Reading List. Clip processes the entire file, so everything comes in together.

How many items can I import?

Up to 500 items per import on all plans. The Pro plan ($8/month) is recommended for large Reading Lists since the 50-page save limit on the free plan applies after import.
