Frequently Asked Questions

How does Digest help with newsletter fatigue?

Digest separates newsletters from your inbox using a dedicated email address. You read them in the Digest app or compile them into a daily email. No more guilt about unread newsletters piling up in your inbox.

Should I just unsubscribe from most newsletters?

Unsubscribing is one approach, but you may lose valuable content. Digest offers a middle ground — keep your subscriptions but read them on your terms in a dedicated space, separate from your work email.

Can Digest help me decide which newsletters to keep?

By moving newsletters to a dedicated reader, you naturally see which ones you actually open and read. Over time, you can unsubscribe from the ones you consistently skip while keeping the ones you value.
