Klass-RM Uploader works with Apple's Shortcuts app and Siri on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro. This lets you automate uploads, send files to your reMarkable from other apps and automations, and check your account status using Shortcuts logic.
Available actions
The app provides three Shortcuts actions:
Upload to reMarkable
Uploads one or more files to your reMarkable. Use this to send documents from other apps, automate regular uploads, or create a "send to reMarkable" button.
- Input: One or more files (PDFs, images, EPUBs, text files).
- Optional: Choose whether to upload as PDF/ePub (default) or reMarkable Notebook (requires Pro + Connect; silently falls back to PDF/ePub if not available).
- Returns: Nothing (upload runs in the background).
Send Web Page to reMarkable
Fetches a URL and uploads the article as a clean, readable EPUB - the same thing as pasting a URL into the app.
- Input: A URL.
- Returns: Nothing (upload runs in the background).
Check reMarkable Account
Returns a snapshot of your current account status. Use this to make decisions in Shortcut logic - for example, skip an upload if not signed in.
- Input: Nothing.
- Returns: Whether you are signed in, your account tier (Free or Connect), and whether a Pro license is active.
How to create a Shortcut
- Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
- Tap or click the + button to create a new Shortcut.
- Tap Add Action (or search for an action).
- Search for Klass-RM Uploader or browse under Apps.
- Choose one of the three actions above.
- Configure the action with any required inputs.
- Add more actions before or after as needed.
- Name and save the Shortcut.
Example shortcuts
"Send to reMarkable" quick action (iPhone/iPad)
Create a shortcut that appears in your share sheet so you can send any file to reMarkable with one tap:
- Create a new Shortcut.
- Turn on Show in Share Sheet in the Shortcut details.
- Add the action Upload to reMarkable.
- Set the input to Shortcut Input (the file being shared).
- Save the Shortcut.
Now it appears in your iOS share sheet alongside the built-in share extension.
Daily article upload (Mac automation)
Create a Shortcut that runs each morning and uploads a specific PDF to your reMarkable:
- Create a new Shortcut.
- Add a Get File action pointing to the PDF.
- Add Upload to reMarkable and set the input to the result of the previous step.
- Open the Shortcuts app and set the Shortcut to run on a schedule (Automations tab).
Check before uploading
Build logic that only uploads if you are signed in and on a Connect account:
- Add Check reMarkable Account.
- Add an If action that checks whether the account tier is Connect.
- Put Upload to reMarkable inside the If block.
- Add an Otherwise action with a notification explaining that Connect is needed.
Siri
You can also run any Klass-RM Uploader Shortcut via Siri. After creating a Shortcut, just say "Hey Siri, [Shortcut name]" and it will run. For best results, give your Shortcuts short, memorable names like "Send to reMarkable."
Notes
- Uploads triggered by Shortcuts run in the background using the same upload path as the share extension. The main app does not need to be open.
- If your reMarkable sign-in has expired, the upload action may briefly bring the app to the foreground to refresh the login, then continue in the background.
- The Notebook format option in the Upload action follows the same requirements as everywhere else: Pro license + Connect. If those are not met, it silently uploads as PDF/ePub instead of failing.
