## Reading Interface

### Navigation

The web reader provides two views for navigating your digest:

**Canvas View (Reading List)**

* See all items in the current digest
* Navigate between items with keyboard shortcuts
* Visual overview of content blocks
* Quick scanning through summaries

**Detail View (Content Sheet)**

* Full content display for selected item
* Embedded emails, videos, and blog posts
* Toggle summary and takeaways sections
* Read full original content without leaving the digest

### Embedded Content Rendering

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Email Content">
    Full newsletter emails render directly in the digest reader using the same interface as the [Inbox](/concepts/inbox):

    * Original formatting preserved
    * Images and links intact
    * No need to switch to email client
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="YouTube Videos">
    Videos play in an embedded player with full controls:

    * Play/pause and speed adjustment

<Tip>

## Different Summary Types

Summary formats vary based on your [AI customization settings](/concepts/ai). Each format offers different features for interacting with content.

### Detailed Summaries

When using the **Detailed Summaries** format, interactive references work seamlessly in the web reader:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click on key takeaways">
    Each takeaway is clickable in both summary and detail views
  </Step>

  <Step title="Jump to exact context">
    * **Email content**: Scrolls to the specific paragraph in the embedded email
    * **YouTube videos**: Jumps video to the exact timestamp in the embedded player
    * **RSS posts**: Links to the relevant section in the embedded blog post
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read or watch in place">
