The pocket is closing. This is an alternative to Read-Later application.

The pockets won’t be there soon.

According to Mozilla, Pocket is the most popular reader service with over 30 million users. The platform was originally founded in 2007 because it was read later, just like social news and social bookmarks started to get started.

The Read-Later service enables users to save web pages, articles and videos for easy access. These services enable users to remember long articles they encounter later, archive web pages for offline viewing, and more.

Pocket offers free services and paid premium subscriptions for less than $50 a year.

But Mozilla decided to shut down the platform regardless of Pocket’s utility and user base. According to Mozilla, “the way people use the network grow”, so the company has decided to close its pockets so that more resources can be put into Firefox.

Pocket will be closed on July 8, 2025. Users will be able to export data to October 8, 2025. After that, the user data will be permanently deleted.

Pocket alternatives

Pocket may say goodbye, but a lot of bookmarks and reading notes are still alive and kicking.

If you are looking for a reading material service like Pocket, Instapaper and Read are two popular choices.

Instapaper Launched shortly after the 2008 Pocket, it has been around for some time. The service offers free plans and paid premium subscription options. Instapaper has a lot more designs than Pocket, so it may take some habits, but it certainly looks stylish. Additionally, Instapaper will offer a free subscription plan of $5.99 per month for anyone importing their pocket data to its platform. Read There are more pocket UIs, but it doesn’t offer a free plan except for a 30-day trial. After that, you need to pay to subscribe to its $9.99 monthly plan or a “Lite” plan for $5.59 monthly.

Read Phrase Application

However, I personally chose to replace my pocket reading desk service is an application called Good link.

Good link Not a service like Pocket, nor is it an alternative mentioned previously, where user data is stored on the server. GoodLinks is a downloadable app for Mac and iOS devices. GoodLinks only purchased a one-time $9.99 fee for a year’s life and new features. After the end of the year, users can continue to use the app and with quality of life updated at no additional cost. Any new features after this early stage will become a fully optional one-time, in-app purchase.

GoodLinks offers all the same features that these subscription services offer, such as offline reading, downloadable archives, highlights, notes, and more. Plus your data is stored locally and synced via iCloud.

Like Pocket, all of these services allow users to save more articles. If you are a pocket user looking for a more video-oriented option, Play Probably for you.

Playing is not an application for reading phrases, but Watch it later one. Play can track YouTube videos, channels, and playlists so that users can follow what they want to watch when they have time. Play also gets all metadata such as time code, description, etc. This means that users don’t even need to leave the app when they catch up with saved videos.

Like goodlinks, Play Not a service, but an application that is stored locally and synchronized via iCloud. Play is available on Mac, iOS devices, and even has the Apple TV app. You can purchase $2.99 ​​at one time to unlock playback in all apps. Advanced features such as channel tracking require $2.99 ​​per month or $19.99 per year subscription, or can be unlocked forever with a one-time purchase of $99.99.

Bookmark Alternatives

By default, the reading phrase platform is basically also a bookmark platform. For pocket users who bookmark their favorite websites using the soon-to-be-decrypted platform, the above alternatives can be used…but they are actually made for articles.

If you need bookmark alternatives to make your favorite website easy to access anywhere, no matter which web browser you are using, I recommend which website you use Any box or Raindrop.io.

Any box is a free downloadable app that can be used to save, search and organize bookmarks for Mac, iPhone and iPad. All data is stored locally and shared via iCloud Sync. All features are not required, but there is a bookmark limit for the free plan. To add unlimited links for bookmarks, subscribe for $1.99 per month or $14.99 per year with a one-time payment method of $39.99 to permanently unlock Pro Plan Plan.

Raindrop.io On the other hand, it is online bookmarking services. The free plan provides users with access to all basic bookmarking features without any restrictions. The $28 annual Pro plan offers the most powerful quality features of any service and offers AI-suggested tags, collections, and more. It also enables users to annotate pages, add reminders to bookmarks, and save permanent archived copies of each web page.

So you can use it: a bagged alternative to every possible use case. And, if no one comes across the scene, you can always hope that your pockets will continue to exist in some way.
