Daily Email Digest

How to set up and configure Screvi's daily email digest with your highlights

What is the Email Digest?

Screvi can send you a curated selection of your highlights via email at a time you choose. Each email contains highlights selected by the spaced repetition algorithm, optimized for memory retention without you having to open the app.

Setting Up Your Digest

  1. Go to Preferences in the web app, or Settings > Review Preferences on mobile
  2. Configure your options:

Frequency

  • Daily: Receive highlights every day
  • Every 3 days: Highlights every 3 days
  • Weekly: Once a week

Time of Day

Choose when to receive your email. Many users set this for their morning routine or commute.

Timezone

Set your timezone so the email arrives at the right local time.

Highlights Per Email

Choose how many highlights to include in each email. The default works well for most users, but you can increase it if you want longer review sessions.

Filters (Optional)

  • Favorites only: Only include highlights you've favorited
  • Exclude source types: Skip highlights from certain types (e.g., exclude tweets)
  • Tag filter: Only include highlights with specific tags

What's in the Email?

Each email contains:

  • A curated set of highlights chosen by the spaced repetition algorithm
  • Source information (book title, author) for each highlight
  • Quick actions to interact with the highlights

Pausing Emails

You can pause and resume your email digest at any time from the Preferences page without losing your review schedule.

Tips

  • Set the email for a time when you naturally check your inbox (morning coffee, commute, lunch break)
  • Start with a small number of highlights per email and increase if you want more
  • Combine email digests with in-app review for maximum retention
