Import Your Bookmarks
Even if you already have a bunch of content bookmarked, this is a quick way to get both existing and new content into Recall:
- Install the Recall browser extension: [Chrome, Firefox]. Upvote the request for a Safari Extension to help get it on the roadmap.
- Open a new browser window on your desktop.
- Open all the content you want to load into Recall, such as:
- A full YouTube playlist
- Articles on a topic you’re exploring
- Your favorite recipes
- Use your browser’s “Bookmark all tabs” feature to save everything at once.
- Open Recall on your desktop and click “Add Content” in the top-right corner.
- In the pop-up window, select “Import” & choose “Import Bookmarks.”
- Recall will automatically detect your bookmarks. Select the folder or specific bookmarks you want to import.
You can import up to 1,000 bookmarks at a time. If you have more, just repeat the process: Recall will automatically deduplicate previously imported content and only add what’s new.
From Bookmarks to Recall: What to Expect After Importing
Once your Bookmarks are imported into Recall, they’re instantly transformed into interactive knowledge cards, allowing you to move from passive reading and watching to engaging with your content in the way that works best for you.
Here’s what you can do with your imported Bookmarks:
- Chat With Your Content: You can now get real value from your Bookmarks by chatting across all of them at once. Ask questions, explore topics, and surface insights without having to open each article individually. Remember to @ the tag name that contains your Bookmarks.
- AI Summaries: Create summaries that capture the main ideas of any article. Go to the Chat tab, choose a summary type, and add it to your notebook.
- Generate Connections: See how your ideas relate by clicking “Generate Connections” in the Connections tab. Recall will show links between your cards, helping you spot recurring themes and related concepts.
- Test Your Understanding: Turn your cards into quizzes to reinforce what you’ve learned and keep track of your progress.

📌
Note:
- Categorization, summaries, and connections aren’t created automatically when doing bulk imports. You can generate them as needed to stay in control of your workspace and manage AI usage efficiently.
- On the free version of Recall, you can only import up to 10 Bookmarks. To import more, you’ll need to upgrade to a Premium Plan.
- If you prefer not to upgrade and still want to use Recall as a free read-it-later app, simply change the default setting in your app to “Reader”.
