Screvi review
A broad read-it-later app for turning highlights into searchable, reviewable knowledge.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Screvi is a read-it-later and highlights-management app for readers, writers, researchers, and students. It saves web articles, newsletters, PDFs, EPUBs, YouTube videos, and podcast content, while supporting highlights from Kindle, Kobo, Apple Books, and other sources. Readers can use it to collect material, annotate it, search highlights by meaning, review them with spaced repetition, and export selected knowledge across web, mobile, browser extension, and macOS experiences.
Pricing is subscription-based, with a 14-day trial and no permanent free plan. The Monthly plan costs $6.99 per month and includes semantic highlight search, daily review, widgets, streaks, broad reading and listening support, source imports, Notion and Obsidian sync, Claude connection, and access across iOS, Android, web, and browser extension. The Yearly plan costs $59.99 per year and includes the same listed features, while the displayed annual equivalent is $5 per month. The Lifetime plan costs $299 one time, includes everything in Yearly, and includes all future updates without recurring payments.
Its strongest distinction is the connection between collection and review. Semantic search helps locate highlights by meaning rather than only by exact terms, while spaced-repetition review, widgets, and streaks support recurring study. The app also covers a wide range of inputs and outputs, including Kindle, Kobo, Apple Books, PDFs, physical books, YouTube, podcasts, Notion, Obsidian, Markdown, PDF, Apple Notes, and Claude. That breadth suits people building a long-term personal knowledge library. Readers who only want a lightweight tool for saving articles may find the paid commitment and wider feature set unnecessary.
