Reading in Inboxt
Inboxt is designed for reading. Articles and newsletters open in a clean reader view that removes distractions and keeps the focus on the content.
Reader view
When you open an article or newsletter, Inboxt displays it in a dedicated reader view, similar to reader modes in modern browsers.
The reader view provides a focused environment for your content with several key features:
- Clean Layout: Centers content and removes ads, navigation, and other visual noise.
- Consistency: Works seamlessly for both articles and newsletters.
- Swipe Navigation: On touch devices, you can swipe left or right to quickly navigate between articles.
- Image Lightbox: Click on any image within an article to view it in full screen.
- Link Actions: Click on links within the article to access quick actions, such as saving the link to Inboxt, opening it in a new tab, or copying the URL.
Reading settings
You can customize the reader view to match your preferences.
Available options include:
- Theme (light, dark, sepia)
- Font family and size

Settings apply across all items.
