  • Doesn't save articles anymore

    This app used to do the one thing I needed it to do, which is let me read articles when I don't have data. But it recently stopped saving.
  • “Listen” no working.

    I have updated the app and iOS, but I am no longer able to listen to articles. This is very frustrating 🙁

    Really sad to see them just let this app slowly die like this. The web site isn't bad, but it doesn't support highlights on iPad Safari.
  • Avoid doing updates on apps

    8.23.0 Update: Read version update notes for the past few updates focusing on Bugs so I decided to do an update to hopefully fix a bug where tag renaming wasn’t saving. Unfortunately the latest update has caused Pocket not to load at all. Yes I submitted a support ticket already. Previous: Ever since the redesign it has been the overall functionality of the app has become worse with updates being a roll of the dice between getting minor bugs fixed or new app breaking bugs getting introduced. Judging by the recent reviews, it appears the most recent two updates are the latter. I am at the point where I will no longer download updates for the app for the fear that it will be further broken and unfixed as the development focuses on new “features” that seem to be also broken and/or focused on monetization instead of stabilization of user experience. Even 4-5 months ago the ability to remove tags has stopped working with a suggestion from Support being to delete existing tags. Articles that I had archived since using the app over a decade ago and were accessible prior to the redesign are still inaccessible since the redesign. Pocket management please focus your next couple of development cycles on bug fixing instead of monetization. People aren’t going to want to spend money on something that is constantly getting broken and unfixed.
  • It’s getting worse and worse

    I’ve used Pocket for at least 10 years and used to really like and rely on it. But in the last maybe year or so, it has made changes for the worse. You can no longer control the size of the type, certain parts of the type are inexplicably huge, and it no longer scrolls properly. In fact, it’ll bounce down from where you are to the end for no reason, and the scrolling no longer accurately measures how far you are in the article. I still use it for its “read it later” properties, but now I avoid it as much as possible. I don’t understand how an app to make conscious changes to make the user experience worse with every update. Just a bummer Update: still the same problems
  • Can’t read saved articles without WiFi anymore.

    The only reason I downloaded this app was to be able to read articles offline. Now when I try and open a saved article offline I just get grey bars where there should be text. PS: stop telling people to go to Mozilla’s site to submit a form. Just fix your app.
  • Pocket has been ruined by Mozilla

    Pocket has gotten noticeably worse over the last several months. Recently, neither my iPad or iPhone are able to load confirmed saves articles while offline (airplane mode); this, to me, has always been the standout feature. I have reached out to support and all I get is a “we’re working on a bug fix,” response with no estimate of when the functionality will return. I’m not hopeful it will actually get resolved. Coupled with other small glitches, I’m not sure this app is worth the trouble any more. Currently looking for alternatives.
  • Used to be quite useful, now, just allows you to paste a pocket dot co link

    By Righteousnesss
    Within the last few months, since there was some kind of an update, I have no idea how to copy a link and share a link with someone using Pocket. The only thing I see is a pocket dot co link which only shares with someone if they also have the app.

  • App Keeps Freezing & Crashing

    I am a Premium subscriber for many years. Initially Pocket works great but anytime iOS gets updated Pocket begins to freeze and crash. It’s not even functional. I have the most up to date Pocket but it always seems to do this. I am very frustrated with this app and feel ripped off. Looking to transfer my articles to other article saving apps that are stable with iOS updates.
