Read-it-later app Pocket shut down — here are the best alternatives

“稍后阅读”应用 Pocket 已关停 — 以下是最佳替代方案

In May 2025, Mozilla announced that it was shutting down the popular read-it-later app Pocket, which it had acquired back in 2017 for an undisclosed amount. That led to a growing demand for alternative apps that could help people save online content, particularly longer articles, that they want to read later when they have more time. 2025 年 5 月，Mozilla 宣布关停其在 2017 年以未公开金额收购的知名“稍后阅读”应用 Pocket。这一举动引发了用户对替代应用的需求激增，人们需要这些工具来保存在线内容（尤其是长文章），以便在有空时阅读。

While Mozilla exited the business, saying the way people are browsing the web is changing, the shutdown boosted adoption of a number of other apps, like Matter, Instapaper, and Raindrop.io, among others. It’s supporting the creation of new, indie alternatives, as well. Many of the apps will support imports. However, Pocket users only had until October 8, 2025, to export their saved articles and other items, including lists, archives, favorites, notes, and highlights. Below are the read-it-later alternatives that are picking up where Pocket left off. 尽管 Mozilla 表示因人们浏览网页的方式正在改变而退出该业务，但此次关停反而推动了 Matter、Instapaper 和 Raindrop.io 等其他应用的使用率。同时，这也促进了新的独立替代产品的诞生。许多应用都支持导入功能。不过，Pocket 用户仅能在 2025 年 10 月 8 日之前导出其保存的文章及其他项目，包括列表、存档、收藏、笔记和高亮内容。以下是接替 Pocket 的“稍后阅读”替代方案。

Matter

Matter is a GV-backed company that makes an eponymous iOS app along with browser extensions for Chrome, Safari, and Firefox. The app lets you listen to articles and transcribes your favorite podcasts. Though the app itself is free to use, you can pay $79.99 per year to unlock features like improved transcriptions for podcasts and YouTube videos, tools to adjust reading speed, and additional integrations with other apps like notes apps, Gmail, and Kindle.

In March 2025, the company also added an AI-powered co-reader to answer questions about different topics users might have while reading an article. 2025 年 3 月，该公司还增加了 AI 驱动的“共读助手”，旨在回答用户在阅读文章时可能产生的各类问题。

Instapaper

Instapaper, which was founded by developer Marco Arment in 2008, is one of the oldest read-it-later apps. It’s available on both iOS and Android, and lets you save unlimited articles and videos without paying any fees. It was acquired by Pinterest in 2016.

However, for $59.99 per year, you can add notes to saved articles, have a permanent archive of articles in your accounts, create a text-to-speech playlist to listen to stories, enable full text search for all saved items, and get the ability to send articles to your Kindle. The company allowed Pocket users to import their account into Instapaper. Users who imported this way also received an email offering a three-month free trial to Instapaper Premium. 不过，每年支付 59.99 美元，你就可以为保存的文章添加笔记、永久存档账户内的文章、创建语音播放列表来收听故事、开启所有保存内容的全文搜索，并获得将文章发送至 Kindle 的功能。该公司允许 Pocket 用户将其账户导入 Instapaper。通过这种方式导入的用户还会收到一封邮件，提供三个月的 Instapaper Premium 会员免费试用。

Raindrop.io

Raindrop works primarily as an alternative bookmark manager for web browsers. However, its accompanying mobile apps for iOS and Android allow you to read your saved articles and PDFs. The free version gives you unlimited bookmark saving along with integrations like Zapier and IFTTT. If you decide to pay $33 per year, you’ll also get AI-powered suggestions for organizing your content better, full text search, reminders for your bookmarks, a duplicate and broken links finder, and a file upload limit of 10GB per month.

Plinky

Former Twitter engineer Joe Fabisevich created Plinky to allow users to save and categorize any kind of link, including articles, videos, recipes, and memes. The app is available across all Apple platforms, along with browser extensions to save links. Once you’re signed up, Plinky lets you use folders and tags to categorize your links, and even set reminders to read them at a specific time.

Pro users are able to save unlimited links, create an unlimited number of folders, use an unlimited number of tags, and set an unlimited number of reminders. 免费版支持保存 50 个链接、创建 3 个文件夹和使用 5 个标签。若要解除这些限制，你可以选择每月 3.99 美元、每年 39.99 美元或一次性支付 159.99 美元。专业版用户可以保存无限量的链接、创建无限数量的文件夹、使用无限数量的标签，并设置无限数量的提醒。

Paperspan

Paperspan is a very simple app that offers a reading list across devices, allows you to add notes, and has text-to-speech functionality. The app is free, but it offers an $8.99 per month subscription to unlock advanced search, as well as the ability to create playlists, show reading stats, and send your articles to Kindle. (Though the app works, PaperSpan hasn’t been updated for some time, which may not be a good signal about its long-term future. The app is available on both iOS and Android.) Paperspan 是一款非常简洁的应用，提供跨设备的阅读列表，支持添加笔记和语音朗读功能。该应用免费，但提供每月 8.99 美元的订阅服务，以解锁高级搜索、创建播放列表、查看阅读统计数据以及将文章发送至 Kindle 的功能。（虽然应用目前可用，但 PaperSpan 已有一段时间未更新，这对于其长期前景来说可能不是一个好信号。该应用支持 iOS 和 Android。）

Readwise Reader

Readwise, a tool to add notes and highlights to articles, launched its Reader app in 2021. The app allows you to import RSS feeds, YouTube videos, Twitter threads, and more to read at your convenience. Because of its integration with Readwise, the Reader app offers great annotation features. It also features offline text search and an AI assistant.

Plus, you can integrate Reader with knowledge management apps such as Obsidian, Notion, Roam Research, Evernote, and Logseq. The app is free to try for 30 days, and then you have to pay a $9.99 per month Readwise subscription to access it. Readwise had allowed Pocket users to import their entire Pocket archive into Reader, adding that its app supports a number of features — like PDFs, ePubs, X posts, AI, and filtering — that Pocket never did. 此外，你可以将 Reader 与 Obsidian、Notion、Roam Research、Evernote 和 Logseq 等知识管理应用集成。该应用提供 30 天免费试用，之后需支付每月 9.99 美元的 Readwise 订阅费才能使用。Readwise 此前已允许 Pocket 用户将其整个 Pocket 存档导入 Reader，并补充称其应用支持许多 Pocket 从未具备的功能，如 PDF、ePub、X 帖子、AI 和过滤功能。

DoubleMemory

DoubleMemory is a newer indie app focused on the Apple ecosystem, offering native apps for both Mac and iOS. On Mac, you can easily save any link or content by pressing Cmd + C twice. The saved content will then appear in a Pinterest-style tile format. The app also allows you to read offline and search through text, notes, and tags. You don’t need an account to start using DoubleMemory. And if you have multiple apps, it uses your iCloud account to sync content across them.

Recall

Recall works as a browser extension and offers a mobile app that allows users to save content from the web, including articles, PDFs, blog posts, podcasts, Wikipedia pages, YouTube videos, and recipes. However, unlike traditional read-it-later apps, Recall uses AI to automatically summarize content, categorize it, and then resurface it when it’s related to something new you’re looking at. Recall 是一款浏览器扩展，并提供移动应用，允许用户保存网页内容，包括文章、PDF、博客文章、播客、维基百科页面、YouTube 视频和食谱。然而，与传统的“稍后阅读”应用不同，Recall 使用 AI 自动总结内容、进行分类，并在你查看新内容时，若两者相关，它会自动将旧内容重新呈现给你。
