We imported entire databases for some beta users and found that people are generally not happy with it. The data sets are too noisy. We experimented with different selection mechanisms and found that a simple web clipper, which allows you to send text passages to Napkin, works best.
Install the webclipper.
Open your tool for thought (e.g. Roam, Notion) in Google Chrome
Select text to be imported
Click right => send to Napkin
๐ก Additional note: We do have a Readwise connection. If your previous note app syncs to Readwise, Napkin can sync from there. You can activate the Readwise sync in your account area in the web app.
