As a pocket replacement it's fairly good, however I would love an Adaptive Icon and a way to immediately open the app after saving an article through the share sheet - rather than just have tag and archive options.

Love this app, particularly sharing articles to my Kobo!

Truly a fantastic replacement for Pocket and does everything I need! It would be great to have a two-column reader view, though. For foldable and tablets. Makes reading much more comfortable. Extra credit for a nice paye turn animation!

Instapaper has been the perfect go to app for saving articles to read later when Pocket went out of business. I do wish it came with a how-to-guude. It's taken me some time to navigate, but it's working now, and I've all but forgotten Pocket.

The latest update did NOT fix the bug of deleted articles reloading.

It was working great. It keeps telling me wrong password, so I used the forgot password, they email me link to change password, I changed it, and every time I use new password, sorry wrong password.

I noticed that there's a speed reading feature. Please please please enable uploading PDF free for up to 4 files a day 😭 By the way, some articles have interactive and clickable button/toggle on them. There must be a way for the users to access these even after downloading it! Also, to the developers, I suggest that you guys should add bionic reading font. The words would become easier to detect if there's a mode like that.

I can understand not being able to search the text, but not being able to search article titles unless going premium is nonsense...

If you listen to an article, Instapaper doesn't save where you left off the next time you use the app. The playlist is also lost if you queued articles in a list for listening, so you have to create it from scratch again. It would also be helpful if an article were archived automatically when you are finished listening to it.

This app has lots of bugs. Sometimes the labels don't show up, although a new one has been added right before the try. Sometimes links that I've saved are missing which come back the other time.
