Aplicativo Read-it-later Pocket está encerrando – aqui estão as melhores alternativas
In May 2025, Mozilla announced that it was shutting down the popular
read-it-later app Pocket
[https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/22/mozilla-is-shutting-down-read-it-later-app-pocket/],
which it had acquired back in 2017 for an undisclosed amount
[https://techcrunch.com/2017/02/27/mozilla-pockets-pocket-in-first-acquisition/].
While Pocket helped users save and discover millions of articles, Mozilla said
the way people are browsing the web is changing, and it plans to focus its
resources on other projects.
Pocket users have until October 8, 2025, to export their saved articles and
other items, including lists, archives, favorites, notes, and highlights. This
essentially means you will have to find a new home to build a reading list
through another save-it-later app.
To help users with this transition, we’ve rounded up a number of apps you might
want to consider.
MATTER
Matter [https://hq.getmatter.com/] is a Google Ventures-backed company
[https://techcrunch.com/2021/10/06/matter-raises-7-million-series-a-to-build-a-better-reading-app/]
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
[https://techcrunch.com/2023/09/06/read-it-later-app-matter-can-now-transcribe-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
[https://x.com/matter/status/1899496715373486488] to answer questions about
different topics users might have while reading an article.
Matter co-founder Ben Springwater says Pocket users can email him at
ben@getmatter.com [ben@getmatter.com] for a personal discount link. The company
will soon offer the discount within its app and will launch a migration process
for Pocket users.

INSTAPAPER
Instapaper [https://www.instapaper.com/], 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
[https://techcrunch.com/2016/08/23/pinterest-acquires-instapaper-which-will-live-on-as-a-separate-app/].
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot-2025-05-26-at-2.45.20PM.jpg?w=680]Image
Credits:Instapaper
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 says Pocket users can import their account into Instapaper
[https://x.com/instapaper/status/1925607446166311322] at instapaper.com/user.
Users who import this way will also receive an email offering a three-month free
trial to Instapaper Premium.
RAINDROP.IO
Raindrop [https://raindrop.io/] 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 or PDFs at any time. The free
version gives you unlimited bookmark saving along with integrations like Zapier
and IFTTT.
If you decide to pay $33 per year, you will 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
[https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/09/plinky-is-an-app-for-you-to-collect-links/],
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 [https://www.plinky.app/] lets you use folders and tags to categorize
your links, and even set reminders to read them at a specific time.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Plinky-Tags-and-Bookmarks.jpeg?w=525]Image
Credits:Plinky
You can save 50 links, create three folders, and use five tags with the free
version. To remove these restrictions, you can pay $3.99 per month, $39.99 a
year, or a one-time fee of $159.99. 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.
With Pocket’s shutdown on the horizon, Fabisevich says
[https://bsky.app/profile/mergesort.me/post/3lprmg4aw2s2p] a dedicated Reader
Mode will soon be added to Plinky’s app. The app is also offering a 50% discount
on the Pro tier through the end of May 2025.
PAPERSPAN
Paperspan [https://www.paperspan.com/] 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.
READWISE READER
Readwise [https://readwise.io/read], a tool to add notes and highlights to
articles, launched its Reader app in 2021
[https://blog.readwise.io/readwise-reading-app/]. 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.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Hero-Screen@2x.f141e5a122de.webp?w=680]Image
Credits:Readwise Reader
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 is letting Pocket users save their entire Pocket archive into Reader
and notes that its app supports
[https://x.com/ReadwiseReader/status/1925615615928143953] a number of features —
like PDFs, ePubs, X posts, AI, and filtering — which Pocket never did.
DOUBLEMEMORY
DoubleMemory [https://doublememory.com/] is a new indie app focused on the Apple
ecosystem, and it has 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.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/DoubleMemory.jpeg?w=680]Image
Credits:DoubleMemory
DoubleMemory is free with in-app purchases. It offers a $3.99 monthly
subscription or an annual subscription of $17.99.
RECALL
Recall [https://www.getrecall.ai/] works as a browser extension and 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 to learn about.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/cross-platform.webp?w=680]Image
Credits:Recall
Designed to enhance your ability to remember information, you can review your
summaries from your personal knowledge base on a saved spaced repetition
schedule.
Recall is free to try with support for up to 10 free, AI-generated summaries.
After that, you can continue to use Recall as a read-it-later tool, or you can
upgrade [https://www.getrecall.ai/pricing] to a $7 per month plan for unlimited
AI summaries and other features.
WALLABAG
Wallabag [https://wallabag.org/] is an open source read-it-later app that’s also
available as an €11 per year hosted subscription, if you prefer. The app itself
works across browsers and mobile devices, offers a reader mode for more
comfortable reading, and supports importing data from other services like
Pocket, Instapaper, and others.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/wallabag.jpg?w=366]Image

READECK
Open source web app Readeck [https://readeck.org/en/] is designed to help you
organize any web content you want to revisit later, whether that’s articles,
videos, photos, or anything else. You can also use the service to highlight
text, export articles to e-book format, save video transcripts, and more.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/readeck.jpg?w=680]Image
Credits:Readeck
Readeck works as a browser extension so you can save your bookmarks as you surf
the web. Users can host Readeck themselves, but the company says it will offer a
hosted version in 2025. It’s also developing a mobile app.
OBSIDIAN WEB CLIPPER
Obsidian [https://obsidian.md/clipper]‘s web clipping service
[https://obsidian.md/clipper] lets you highlight and capture web pages you want
to save with just a click on its browser extension. You can also use templates
that customize how certain types of web pages are saved. For instance, articles
are saved with their citations and footnotes, while recipes will include
ingredients, steps, and nutrition. You can even set up custom templates to save
from your favorite websites.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/obsidian-web-clipper.jpg?w=680]Image
Credits:Obsidian
As an open source app, Web Clipper is free to use, allowing you to highlight
text, images, and blocks of content for saving into the Obsidian
[https://obsidian.md/] note-taking app.
KARAKEEP
Karakeep [https://karakeep.app/]‘s bookmarking app lets you save links, notes,
and images, and then uses AI to automatically tag items and make retrieving them
faster. The app includes other features like support for lists, bulk actions,
dark mode, full-text search, and more.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/karakeep.webp?w=680]Image
Credits:Karakeep
The open source app [https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep] is available on
iOS and Android as a browser extension for Chrome and Firefox. You can support
its developer here [https://buymeacoffee.com/mbassem].
DEWEY
Dewey [https://getdewey.co/] is another “save everything”-style app that lets
you save and organize web links, videos, and images, including posts from social
media sites like X, TikTok, Bluesky, Threads, Reddit, Instagram, LinkedIn, and
others.
[https://techcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/dewey.webp?w=680]Image
Credits:Dewey
The service offers built-in organizational tools like folders and tags, AI bulk
tagging, keyboard shortcuts, automatic syncing to Notion, export, a personalized
RSS feed, and more. Dewey offers multiple plans [https://getdewey.co/pricing/],
starting at $7.50 per month, which you can choose to pay annually for $30 off.
This is not an exhaustive list, and we will keep adding more tools as we
discover them.
