Editors’ Notes
Ever run across a great article you didn’t have time to read at that moment but wanted to remember to come back to later? Us too—and that’s why we use Pocket. Whether you’re in Safari or inside your favourite news app, just tap the Share button and save anything you want to read for later, even when offline.
Excellent at what it does - poor widgets
Great collecting and reading experience - it just works beautifully and makes it simple and pleasurable to save stuff and read/watch it later. I also really like the recommendations/trending and would like to see that expanded. I was on Instapaper for years but moved to pocket because i prefer it. I have a lot of time for this app but the widgets are rubbish - you can’t see your own collection and they use the space terribly. I also worry the app is a privacy nightmare, would be nice if privacy/not selling your data was something you could pay to opt out of.

Utterly ruined
I’m a premium subscriber, have been for years. I’m always in the top percentage of readers at the end of the year. So please Pocket, pay attention to all these negative reviews - you have ruined the app, and the least you could do is revert back to the previous version for us longtime dedicated users, whilst you fix the problems of what is clearly a total rewrite.
Article rendering is awful, I don’t know what’s changed there. I don’t want links in bright blue. Only 2 typefaces now? Increasing font size changes the serif font to sans-serif! So many customisation options removed… no article width choices. My starred article list is empty (I had hundreds of starred articles). Page-flipping view is gone (I use pocket because I DON’T want to be scrolling, it’s supposed to be distraction-free). No highlights.
You built this app up over years, why destroy it? Add more features, don’t remove everything your users rely on. I am baffled beyond comprehension at this ‘update’ and what purpose it is supposed to serve, but I know I am currently wasting my money on your premium option.
