How to Read Whofic Stories on a reMarkable
To read a story from A Teaspoon And An Open Mind, also known as Whofic, on a reMarkable tablet, download it with WP Downloader and transfer the EPUB or PDF file to your device. WP Downloader is a free web tool, so you do not need to install anything.
Download a Whofic story
Find the story on whofic.com. Its URL should look like this:
https://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=1234 Copy the main story URL. WP Downloader downloads complete Whofic stories, so it does not accept links for individual chapters or lists.
Open the Whofic downloader, paste the URL into the box, and let WP Downloader prepare the story. You do not need to sign in to Whofic.
Choose a file format:
- EPUB is free for everyone.
- PDF requires a free Discord sign-in.
You can also choose whether to include the story’s images. Save the finished file to the phone or computer you will use for the transfer.
WP Downloader does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files. A reMarkable tablet can open both of the available formats, EPUB and PDF.
Choose between EPUB and PDF
You can use either EPUB or PDF on a reMarkable tablet. The device accepts files up to 100 MB.
If a story file is too large, try downloading it again without images. Leaving them out may reduce the file size.
You can transfer the finished file with the reMarkable mobile or desktop app, through a web browser, or over a USB connection.
Use the reMarkable mobile app
This method works when the story is saved on your phone.
- Download the EPUB or PDF from WP Downloader.
- Open the file or your phone’s sharing menu.
- Select the reMarkable mobile app.
- Allow the file to transfer.
- Open the story on your tablet when it appears.
Sharing controls vary by phone, but you only need to send the downloaded file to the reMarkable app.
Use the reMarkable desktop app
If the story is saved on your computer, you can transfer it with the desktop app.
- Find the EPUB or PDF in your downloads folder.
- Open the reMarkable desktop app.
- Add the story file.
- Wait for it to appear on your tablet.
- Open the file on your reMarkable.
This method is useful if you keep your reading files on a laptop or desktop computer.
Upload the file in a web browser
You can also use reMarkable’s browser upload option. Select the EPUB or PDF created by WP Downloader and wait for it to reach your tablet.
This works well when the story is already saved on your computer and you do not want to move it into another app first.
Transfer the story over USB
A USB cable gives you another way to upload the file.
- Connect the reMarkable tablet to your computer with a USB cable.
- Open the tablet’s storage settings.
- Turn on the USB web interface.
- Open this address in a browser on the connected computer:
10.11.99.1 - Upload the Whofic EPUB or PDF through the interface.
- Open the transferred story on your tablet.
The path to the USB web interface setting can vary between reMarkable software versions. If you cannot find it, check the tablet’s current storage settings.
Download new chapters
WP Downloader cannot add chapters to an EPUB you already have. When a Whofic story is updated, return to the Whofic downloader, paste the story URL again, and download a new copy.
