Reading List allows you to add web pages to a list to keep for later. It prevents endless tabs from accumulating on your Tab Bar and Bookmarks being filled with entries you only need once.
Though, there are similar services out there, Vivaldi’s Reading List doesn’t require an Extension nor do you need to sign up for an account.
To add the button to one of the Toolbars:
- Go to the
Vivaldi Menu > View > Customize Toolbar.
- Drag the
Reading List button to your preferred location on the Address Bar or Status Bar.
Then you can access and manage your Reading List from a popup

Add pages to the Reading List
To add an open web page to the Reading List:
- Click on
Show the Reading List button on the Address Bar or Status Bar and then on Add Current Page in the popup.
- Open the Reading List Panel and click
Add Current Page.
- Type “Add Page to Reading List” in Quick Commands.
- Create a Keyboard Shortcut or a Mouse Gesture for the action.
- On a web page, right-click on a link and select Add Link to Reading List.
View and manage articles on the list
To open an article from the Reading List:
- Click on
Show the Reading List on the Address Bar.
- Select an article you’d like to read.
- Click on the entry to open the article in a new tab.
Opened articles will be marked as read automatically and moved to the Read Articles section.

Mark articles as read / unread
To mark an article read without opening it:
- Click on
Show the Reading List on the Address Bar.
- In the Unread Articles section, select an article you’d like to mark as read.
- Click on
Mark as read.
To mark an article unread:
- Click on
Show the Reading List on the Address Bar.
- In the Read Articles section, select an article you’d like to mark as unread.
- Click on
Mark as unread.
Remove articles from Reading List
You can remove both unread and read articles from the Reading List. To do that:
- Click on
Show the Reading List on the Address Bar.
- Select an article you’d like to remove from the list.
- Click on
Remove from Reading List.
Sync Reading List
Saved pages in your Reading List can be synced with Vivaldi on your other devices. (Currently available only on desktop.)
To sync your reading list:
- Go to Settings > Sync.
- Log in to your Vivaldi account.
- Sync either all data or make sure Reading List is enabled, when syncing only selected data.
Lists from different devices will be merged when synced.
Reading List Panel
In addition to the Reading List popup, you can use the feature in a Panel. Find out more about it on the Help page about the Reading List Panel.
