Then, click Import on the Instapaper section.


Step 2: Sign in and import highlights from Instapaper

Please see that the imported highlights are visible to other people. If you'd like to hide them in a private space, please update to the premium plan.

The importing feature is not automated, so if you'd like to import highlights from Instapaper to Glasp, sync the highlights manually whenever you want.


(Optional) Step 4: Delete the imported highlights

If you'd like to delete the imported highlights, please go to the My Highlights page. On the page, you can select the imported highlights and click the three dots at the top right.
