It’s great

Very convenient for my reading in places without connectivity. I use it very often.
Cant download

I used to be able to download articles and listen while I’m flight and no internet connection. But they’ve removed this great feature. What’s its purpose now?
It mostly does what it’s supposed to do

There have been a few times when a website won’t save or sync. Not a huge problem for me as I could take screenshots if necessary.
New features poorly implemented
Luhmann
Came back to check out highlights and “continue reading” - both features I’ve been waiting for. But neither is done right. One can’t batch export all the highlights from an article. Nor can you see all the article that you started but didn’t finish. Both of these are done better by Pocket’s main competition. Tagging alone isn’t enough to bring me back. I need these features, and I need them done right. Deleted.
Pocket is a baller app

Love that it curated interesting (mostly non-political) and actually informative content that I can choose from to save for reading later. Love it.
An Empty Mailbox is a Beautiful Thing

Through the years I’ve emailed 100s—maybe 1,000s—of articles and whatnot to myself to “save” them for later reading if reference. This wonderful app has saved me much time and effort and has made it easier to archive resources and locations and retrieve them as needed. Kudos!
Pocket makes life worth living

This incredible app helps me focus on great stories and spend my device-time in a more positive, constructive, productive and fulfilling ways. Scrolling through Apple News today left me feeling empty. So I hopped over to Pocket and read 3 stories that I had saved. One article I read, I’d saved from the Pocket content feed in the Firefox New Tab — THE reason to switch to Firefox is to get Pocket article recommendations BTW (and ALSO better privacy). On the bus today, rather than reading crap, or scrolling through attention-grabbing headlines on Apple and Google news, I read an article about the gut microbiome, the state of glaciers in Alaska, and an article for work. And I learned something. Pocket is my favorite first-screen app that keeps me from wasting time on Insta/other places...and helps me stay sane, get smarter, focus on the things I care about. 6-stars for Pocket. ?

I really enjoy the Pocket app which works well on my phone and on FireFox. I use this app very often, especially for quick reading.
Great idea but multiple glitches
Keep on Laitening
I absolutely love the app and solution for being able to listen to blogs that are worth listening but don’t have to read. Glitches: -the status on how far you’re in on listening to the post isn’t working (it’s always frozen on the beginning) or partially works if you press stop/resume inside the app. -the listening stage doesn’t get updated on the lock screen of the phone so you can t quickly glimpse how much you have left tot go. -if you hide the in-pp listening mode playvirw it won’t continue listening in the background and what’s even worse is when you go back to the listening view it won’t remember where you were but instead starts from the beginning. -the listening speed adjustment button doesn’t work seamlessly- sometimes you have to stop and adjust and then resume but it doesn’t adjust on the fly while you’re listening. -LinkedIn blog posts are not a supported format for listening. -some rare posts get clipped prematurely / the reader doesn’t accurately read what’s the end of the post. -there should be an option to automatically mark the posts as listened / move to archive as you move to the next. I hope these glitches get fixed as have been looking for such a solution and already a power user.
