Reader mode, find and share
Read an article without clutter, search for a word on a page, and send a page to another app.
Read an article in reader mode
Open an article, such as a news story or blog post.
Open the menu (three dots) and tap Reader.
The article opens on a Reader screen with just its title and text.
Use the buttons at the top right:
- The smaller-text button makes the text smaller.
- The larger-text button makes it larger.
- The sun button switches the sepia page on and off.
Tap the back arrow at the top left to return to the page.
If Flint cannot find an article on the page, it shows Reader view is not available for this page. This is normal on home pages, search results and web apps.
Find text on a page
Open the menu and tap Find.
Type in Find in page. Matches are highlighted.
Use the up and down arrows to move between matches, and the x to close the bar.
Share a page
Open the menu and tap Share. Android's share sheet opens with the page's address, so you can send it to a messaging app, email or another browser.
