Extension summary

Better Reading List is an open source extension that makes it easier to read and add item to Chrome's built in Reading List. If you use the browser's native Reading List, this is a must have extension for you.

With Better Reading List, you can quickly add the current tab to the Reading List. The extension also let's you:

  • Filter your Reading List for read/unread items,
  • Search the list to find item by title or link,
  • and automatically mark open items as Read (enable it in Settings).

This is the first release of the extension. If you have feature requests, feel free to reach me at [email protected]

This is made with love in Munich.

What's new in version 1.1.0:

  • Searching: you can now search the list by for a title / link.
  • Fixed adding tab not taking care of multiple windows.

Works great. See if the default order shows the latest first. When I add a new item, I am not sure if that got added right away.
