Raindrop.io 4+

I’ve been a steady user and have over 14,000 organized and tagged bookmarks. The most recent versions now have on-page highlighting that displays the highlighted text. This disappeared for a version. I submitted a bug report and the developer responded pretty quickly with an update. A highlighting problem surfaced on the MacOS version, and again the developer responded and yesterday I was able to get that update.

This is a valuable tool to keep stay abreast of all the news developments and being able to gather and organize the details. Very important in the age of misinformation.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND. POOR RESPONSE FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE. If I could get this review zero stars, I would. I use this platform as a way to organize links that I would like to save, and I paid for the pro to be able to organize those links into groups. However, there was a bug on the site where I was unable to add new collections to groups. When I reached out to customer service they lied to me and told me that this wasn’t implemented yet. However, organizing collections in groups is something they advertise for paying for the pro yearly, and I was able to do it at first but then I wasn’t. So instead of saying that they were having a bug with their site, they decided to lie to me and give me a one-word answer that did not help with my problem. So for the past two weeks, I have been able to organize my links in my business because of the poor customer service with this platform.

I do not recommend because they are just trying to get you to buy the pro but the pro is buggy and does not work. If you were to use this platform, do not give them any money!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tried all the “read it later” apps and this one is by far the best for a niche purpose I care about: finding items I’ve saved to my library. The folder + tags option is excellent, and the search feature is far better than pocket (even pocket pro). I am happy to pay for quality apps. This is ALMOST everything I could hope for from this sort of app.

The only drawback is that it doesn’t have offline support. This makes a huge difference; today the 4g networks all went down. I haven’t found a better way to store websites offline and also organize and search for links in a systematic way. I would happily pay for an “offline pro” bundle or something like that.

Besides that, this app is honestly so much better than pocket in all other ways. It is consistently faster to find articles I saved a while ago and access themes of links I’ve saved to revise a subject.
