Sponge: Read Later

Read later, summarised locally

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Sponge keeps the articles you mean to read in one calm library, and puts it on your phone and tablet. SAVE FROM ANY APP Tap Share, then Sponge, in your browser, Mail, News or any app with a share sheet. Saves made offline wait and send when you're back. READ WITHOUT DISTRACTION A clean reader with an outline, reading progress and a warm dark theme. Your library is kept on the device, so it opens at once and reads offline. SUMMARIES FROM YOUR OWN COMPUTER Articles carry a short summary, drafted on your computer by models that run there. Nothing you save is sent to an AI service. HIGHLIGHT AND TAKE NOTES Select text to highlight it or add a note. The notebook gathers every highlight and exports Markdown. SEE WHAT YOUR LIBRARY IS ABOUT The library map groups the ideas in what you've read into named concepts. INBOX, LATER, ARCHIVE File, star and search everything you've saved, with the same reading state on every device. HOW IT WORKS Sponge captures pages on your own computer with the free sponge command, and syncs their text to your library. Links you save on your phone wait in a queue until your computer captures them. PLANS Sponge Cloud is free for 100 saved articles. Sponge Plus removes the limit for $4.99 a month. It renews automatically until you cancel it in your Apple Account settings. No ads, analytics or tracking.
