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.

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.

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!

Simple, minimalistic & effective-especially easy to read in my Kobo Libra-though would prefer new update to include categorization in the archive folder & to warn error if already existing link shared to app previously.

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

Moved to Instapaper reluctantly when Pocket shut down. Instapaper had a quick transfer feature but the instructions about using it were useless. Now I'm finding that a) new items I've shared with it aren't appearing + b) doing a search takes me to a page advertising the premium version with no way of exiting it. Can't believe the Search function is behind a pay wall - no wonder it's put at the end of the features in description! Looking elsewhere.

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.

Wonderful app but the reading experience spoils because of one thing. App is really good but not many fonts are available in the app. Major thing in the app doesn't have the justified alignment page setting feature yet, due to that paragraph looks weird while reading. Please make justified alignment feature available then it will be more convenient to read
