I really liked my reMarkable Paper Pro. It was so nice to send PDF files of papers to it with one click using the browser extension, to review or annotate them.

A few days ago, they decided to remove that feature entirely. No patch notes, no message - just a silent update of the extension. Even the support agents didn't know what was causing the issue at first.

The new extension now converts websites to EPUBs (without pictures) - OR you can pay for a subscription to get their custom format, which includes pictures.
I assume they realized that allowing people to upload websites as PDFs (with pictures!) would hurt their subscription sales.

Also, the new extension cannot send PDF files at all.

There is NO official communication from reMarkable about this, only a number of confused posts online and negative reviews on the Chrome Web Store. All of their communication is about their new device they just released.

So, if you are thinking of buying the new reMarkable device, be aware that they may just remove some of its features in the future to hide them behind a paywall when they need more money.

reMarkable’s Paper Pure is a $399 E Ink writing tablet that replaces the reMarkable 2

E Ink tablet maker reMarkable isn’t the kind of company that normally needs to release a new model every year – the company launched its first model in 2017 and its second in 2020.

So the company has built a reputation for offering products that do a few things […]
