Pocket Alternatives

You're looking for a read‑it‑later + bookmarking system, without self‑hosting, with strong cross‑platform support, import/export, tagging, and ideally archival and integrations.

Below are solid candidates ranked by how closely they match those requirements.

---

Instapaper

Closest spiritual successor to Pocket

Why it fits - Free plan is usable (core saving + reading) - iOS app, Android app, web app - Browser extensions for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge - Clean import/export (HTML, CSV, Kindle) - Folders + tagging - Offline reading and text extraction

Limitations - Auto-tagging is basic - Full-page snapshots are limited - Integrations are not deep

Verdict
If Pocket disappeared, many people would land here.

Important note

Your exact combination --- free, hosted, cross‑platform, AI auto‑tagging, folders, full‑page archiving, and rich integrations --- is extremely rare in a single product.

Most people end up choosing which capability matters most and optimizing for that.

save_for_later_alternatives-two.md

I'm looking for alternatives to the Pocket application that I used for quite some time. Can you please give me some suggestions for apps that are similar to Pocket? I'm looking for the following features:

• the app should be free or should have a generous free plan
• I shouldn't have to self-host the application
• It should have cross-platform support, especially an app for iOS
• It should either have a desktop application ( windows ), or should have browser extension for most of the popular browsers
• It should have import/export features
• it should have auto-tagging features and the ability to organize saved links/bookmarks/etc into folders Optional feature but good to have:
• it should have an option of creating an archive of the bookmarked websites
• It should have plugins that can connect with third party apps like reddit

I've searched a lot for good alternatives and the following are the ones that I like the most but they are either not free or require me to self-host them:

• Linkwarden
• Karakeep
• Linkding

I've tried the following apps but didn't like them:

• Raindrop
• Sidebery
• Floccus

I found an iOS application called YABA which is great but it only supports iOS and MacOS. I'm looking for an application that also supports windows, android, etc.

Give me a list of at least 5 suggestions that you think would be the best fit for my requirements.

Here are 6 services that are closest to what you described, ranked roughly by fit. None is a perfect 1:1 Pocket+Linkwarden clone, but the first three in particular are strong candidates.

---

1. Cubox (AI read‑it‑later + bookmark manager)

Why it’s a strong fit

• Pricing: Free to use with optional Pro/Pro+AI subscriptions; free tier is explicitly supported in both App Store listing and marketing.¹²
• Hosting: Fully hosted SaaS, no self‑hosting required.
• Platforms: Native apps for iOS/iPadOS, Android, Mac, plus web; works on Windows via web and browser extensions.³⁴
• Browser support: Extensions for Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox.⁵⁴
• Import / export:
  • Import from browser bookmarks, Pocket, Instapaper, etc.⁶³
  • Export saved content as Markdown, HTML, PDF and also local backups/integrations.⁶³
• Organization:
  • Nested folders & nested tags, plus smart folders.⁷³
  • Full‑text search and snapshots for long‑term retrieval.³
• Auto‑tagging / smart organization:
  • Browser extension can suggest tags, title, description, and cover image when saving.⁸⁹
  • AI features like Ghost Highlight automatically pick “hot” sections in articles.³
• Archiving:
  • “Content parse and webpage snapshot” – Cubox stores a cleaned article view plus a permanent snapshot of the page.⁷³
• Integrations / plugins:
  • Syncs or exports to Obsidian, Notion, Readwise and supports email drop + API + deep links for workflows.⁶³
  • This covers most “plugin” needs (for Reddit you can still send from Reddit → Cubox via share sheet or automation).

Main downsides / gotchas

• Some AI and advanced features are only in paid tiers, but the free tier is quite usable if you mainly want saving + organizing + basic AI summaries.
• UX is more “PKM / second brain” than a minimal bookmark bar, so there is slightly more learning curve.

If you want one service that hits almost all your bullets (including archive and auto‑tagging) and has solid cross‑platform support, Cubox is the closest match.

---

2. Instapaper (classic read‑it‑later, very stable)

Why it’s a strong fit

• Pricing: Free core app; Instapaper Premium adds power features but is optional.¹⁰
• Hosting: Fully hosted SaaS.
• Platforms:
  • iOS/iPadOS and Android apps, plus web.¹¹¹⁰
  • Works on any desktop OS via web; Chrome extension covers Windows nicely.¹²¹³
• Browser support:
  • Official Chrome extension and bookmarklets; also works via system share sheet on mobile.¹³¹⁴¹²
• Import / export:
  • Import from browsers and other services via Instapaper.com/user.¹⁵
  • Export tagged articles via RSS, PDF, or ePub; bulk export options available.¹⁶¹⁷¹⁵
• Organization:
  • Folders for structure and tags for flexible classification (tags added in 2024 and supported across platforms).¹⁸¹⁶
  • Filters for untagged items and archive management on iOS.¹⁹
• Auto‑tagging / integrations:
  • No built‑in AI auto‑tagging, but strong automation ecosystem:
    • Official Zapier and IFTTT integrations, plus support via multiple automation platforms.^20212223
    • You can build rules like “if saved from subreddit X or RSS feed Y → add tag Z” or “if Reddit upvote / save → send to Instapaper with tag reddit”.
• Archiving & offline:
  • Downloads up to 500 articles offline per device; unlimited retained on the web.¹¹
  • Built‑in archive state and good long‑term reading history.

Main downsides

• Auto‑tagging is rule‑based via Zapier/IFTTT, not native AI tagging.
• Full‑text search and some extras are Premium‑only.
• Less “database‑like” bookmark management than something like Linkwarden/Karakeep.

If you are okay using automation tools to get auto‑tagging, Instapaper is a very solid, battle‑tested Pocket‑style alternative with good import/export and deep integration options.

---

3. Diigo (research‑oriented bookmarking + annotations)

Why it’s a strong fit

• Pricing: Free and paid plans; free tier is usable for personal bookmarking and annotation.²⁴
• Hosting: Fully hosted SaaS.
• Platforms:
  • Diigo Browser for iOS and Diigo for Android apps.²⁵
  • Web app that works on any desktop OS, including Windows.
• Browser support:
  • Chrome, Firefox, and IE extensions, plus bookmarklets and tools for Safari.²⁶²⁷²⁵
• Import / export:
  • Import from Pocket, Instapaper, Delicious, and browser bookmarks via HTML.²⁸²⁵
  • Export your library and annotated PDFs; browser export in Firefox format preserves tags and dates.²⁹²⁵
• Organization:
  • Tags + outliners (lists) for hierarchical organization.³⁰²⁶
  • Very tag‑centric workflow; outliners act like nested folders for projects.
• Auto‑tagging / smart tagging:
  • When saving, Diigo suggests tags based on the article content; you can apply them with one click.³⁰²⁴
• Archiving:
  • Chrome extension has a “Upload cache page” option to save a copy of the full web page to your library.²⁷
  • Also supports uploading and annotating PDFs and images.³¹²⁷
• Integrations / third‑party:
  • “Save Favorite Tweets” and other social‑media auto‑save tools; “Save to Delicious” cross‑posting.²⁵
  • RSS, email‑in, blog publishing, and an API for custom scripts.²⁵

Main downsides

• UI and UX are a bit old‑school.
• Free plan has some limits (e.g., number of outliners, advanced search).
• Auto‑tagging is “suggested tags on save”, not full AI classification of your backlog.

If you care about annotation, snapshots, and flexible folders+tags, Diigo is a strong candidate that checks most of your boxes, including archiving and semi‑automatic tagging.

---

4. Bookmarkjar (AI bookmark manager with Reddit / GitHub / YouTube sync)

Why it’s worth a look

• Pricing:
  • Free plan with up to 100 bookmarks per month, including AI summaries and semantic search.³²
  • Paid tiers raise limits and unlock richer AI, but you can do a lot on the free plan.
• Hosting: Fully hosted SaaS.
• Platforms:
  • Web app designed to work well on desktop and mobile browsers; users explicitly mention using it on phones without a native app yet.³²
  • Works on Windows, macOS, Linux via browser.
  • As of early 2026, no dedicated iOS/Android native app; mobile is via responsive web.
• Browser support:
  • “Save anywhere: right‑click links, highlight text, one‑click toolbar. Works across all browsers” – implemented via extensions and bookmarklets.³²
• Import / export:
  • Focus is on sync/import from external services rather than one‑shot imports; but export and backup are part of their positioning (central archive for social saves). (Worth double‑checking once you sign up.)³²
• Organization:
  • Strong AI auto‑tagging and summarization; it intentionally does not push you into folders and manual tagging.³²
  • Semantic + vector search lets you find items by natural‑language queries (“that recipe with garlic and pasta”, etc.).³²
• Auto‑tagging:
  • Core feature: everything is automatically extracted, tagged, and summarized by AI when saved or synced.³²
• Archiving:
  • AI extraction reads and stores content (articles, threads, videos, GitHub repos, etc.) for summarization and search. It is effectively building an archive, though not necessarily as a pixel‑perfect page snapshot.³²
• Integrations / plugins (this is where it shines for your “Reddit” requirement):
  • Can automatically import from:
    • Reddit saves, Twitter/X favorites, GitHub stars, YouTube likes, LinkedIn posts and more.³²
  • Has an API, MCP integration (for Claude/ChatGPT), and Raycast support.³²

Main downsides

• No native iOS/Android app yet – only web/PWA.
• Monthly bookmark limits on the free plan; might be tight if you are a heavy saver migrating from Pocket.
• Very new product; long‑term reliability and export story should be verified before committing heavily.

If Reddit/GitHub/Twitter auto‑sync and AI auto‑tagging are high‑value for you, Bookmarkjar is uniquely good there. The main trade‑off is the lack of a native iOS app today.

---

5. booky.io (simple, privacy‑focused online bookmark manager)

Why it may fit

• Pricing: 100% free; the service is positioned as a free, minimalist bookmark manager.³³
• Hosting: Fully hosted SaaS.
• Platforms:
  • Pure web app that works on desktop and mobile; designed to be used from any device (Windows, Android, iOS) via browser.³⁴³³
  • “Mobile web app” for phones/tablets rather than native apps.³⁵³⁶
• Browser support:
  • Official Chrome and Firefox extensions to add links and browse bookmarks.³⁷³⁶³⁵
• Import / export:
  • Supports import/export of bookmarks via browser‑standard formats; recent updates explicitly added bookmark import/export in settings.³⁸³³
• Organization:
  • Two‑level structure: collections and categories (essentially folders and sub‑folders).³³³⁴
  • Notes on bookmarks and search across titles + notes; some users use notes as a “tag” field.³⁹
• Archiving:
  • No full‑page snapshot, but you keep URLs and metadata.
• Auto‑tagging / integrations:
  • No AI auto‑tagging; you can approximate tags via notes/search, but it’s manual.
  • No direct Reddit/GitHub integrations; everything is via extensions or manual add.

Main downsides

• No native iOS/Android apps; only web + extensions.
• Lacks auto‑tagging and content archiving.
• Much simpler than Linkwarden/Karakeep – good for clean organization, not for deep PKM.

booky.io is attractive if you want something very simple, free, and privacy‑focused with good folder‑style organization and import/export, and you’re okay giving up auto‑tagging and archival snapshots.

---

6. Memex (browser‑centric, privacy‑first bookmarking & annotation)

Why it might be interesting

• Pricing:
  • Historically: free tier with only ~25 bookmarks per month, then paid plans. That’s a key limitation.⁴⁰
• Hosting:
  • Data is stored locally first; you can back up to cloud providers. No self‑hosting required for normal use, but it is very “local‑first”.⁴¹⁴²
• Platforms:
  • Core is a browser extension for Chromium and Firefox.⁴²
  • Memex Go mobile apps for iOS and Android to save and organize content on the go.⁴¹
• Browser support:
  • Official Chrome/Chromium and Firefox extensions; heavy browser integration.⁴²
• Import / export:
  • Import from “every major bookmarking service” with folder structure preserved.⁴²
  • Backup/restore to file system or cloud (Google Drive etc.).⁴¹⁴²
• Organization:
  • Tags, lists/spaces, bookmarks, plus full‑text search across everything.⁴¹⁴²
• Archiving:
  • Emphasis on local storage and offline‑first reading; backups of pages and PDFs, with plans/features around archiving.⁴¹
• Auto‑tagging / integrations:
  • No first‑class AI auto‑tagging in the core product (mainly search and organization), though they have AI‑assisted summarization and MCP integrations in newer versions.⁴³⁴²
  • Integrations with Obsidian, Readwise, Logseq etc.⁴²⁴¹

Main downsides

• Free plan bookmark cap is very low (around 25/month), so probably not “generous” for your use case.⁴⁰
• Very browser‑centric workflow; desktop app is just the browser.

Memex is good if you like the idea of local‑first storage and strong full‑text search, and you don’t mind paying to get past the free tier limitations.

How this maps to your requirements

Hard requirements vs each app

• Free / generous free plan
  • Good: Cubox (usable free tier), Instapaper (strong free tier), Diigo (usable free), Bookmarkjar (100 bookmarks/month), booky.io (fully free).
  • Weaker: Memex (25 bookmarks/month free).
• No self‑hosting required
  • All six are fully hosted or cloud‑backed; none require self‑hosting.
• Cross‑platform w/ iOS app
  • Native iOS + Android: Cubox, Diigo, Memex (via Memex Go).⁴²⁵³⁴¹
  • iOS + Android via web only: Bookmarkjar, booky.io.
  • iOS + Android + Windows (via web/extension): all of the above; only Cubox and Diigo also have desktop‑class native clients (Cubox for Mac; Diigo Quick Note on Mac).⁴²⁵
• Desktop app or browser extensions
  • Native desktop: Cubox (Mac app + “Mac helper”).⁵⁴
  • Browser extensions for major browsers: Cubox, Instapaper, Diigo, Bookmarkjar, booky.io, Memex all have Chrome/Chromium extensions; several also have Firefox and Safari support.^944122783542
• Import/export support
  • Strong: Cubox, Instapaper, Diigo, booky.io, Memex all clearly document import/export workflows.^{28153833256342}
  • Bookmarkjar focuses more on ongoing sync than classic “one‑shot import/export”, but aims to be an external source of truth.³²
• Auto‑tagging + folders
  • Best match:
    • Cubox – nested folders + nested tags, with AI‑assisted tagging and tag suggestions on save.⁸⁷³
    • Bookmarkjar – no folders, but very strong AI auto‑tagging and semantic search; the whole model is “no folders, AI does the organizing”.³²
  • Partial:
    • Diigo – outliners (folders) + tags; suggested tags when saving (semi‑automatic).²⁴
    • Instapaper – folders + tags, but auto‑tagging only via external automations (Zapier/IFTTT).²¹²³¹⁶
    • Memex – tags, lists/spaces; AI summarization, but not really auto‑tagging by default.⁴³⁴²
    • booky.io – collections/categories as folders; no proper tag system or auto‑tagging (notes + search can be used as a pseudo‑tag field).³⁴³⁹³³
• Optional: archiving saved pages
  • Strong: Cubox (parsed content + snapshots); Diigo (cache page + PDF/image uploads); Memex (offline‑first, backups, local content).^3127734241
  • Moderate: Instapaper (offline article content, but not necessarily full visual snapshots).¹¹
  • Weaker: Bookmarkjar (archives content for AI summaries/search but not pixel‑perfect snapshots); booky.io (URLs and metadata only).³³³⁴³²
• Optional: plugins/integrations like Reddit
  • Best: Bookmarkjar (direct sync from Reddit saves, GitHub stars, YouTube likes, LinkedIn posts, etc., all auto‑tagged and summarized).³²
  • Good:
    • Instapaper via Zapier / IFTTT can ingest from Reddit and many other sources.^22232021
    • Diigo can auto‑ingest from Twitter favorites and other social sources.²⁵
    • Cubox has API + integrations to Notion/Readwise/Obsidian; you can wire Reddit via automation tools.⁶³
    • Memex integrates with Obsidian, Readwise, Logseq and is building AI/agent integrations.⁴³⁴²⁴¹

Practical recommendations

Given everything you’ve tried and excluded:

• If you want something closest to a modern Linkwarden/Karakeep with hosted SaaS and AI help: Start with Cubox, import from Pocket, and set up:
  • nested folders for high‑level areas,
  • nested tags for topics,
  • “Ghost Highlight” + AI summaries for quick triage. This gets you cross‑platform, archive snapshots, and semi‑automatic tagging in one place.
• If you prefer a conservative, well‑established read‑it‑later app with good automations: Use Instapaper as the core, and add:
  • Zapier/IFTTT rules to auto‑tag based on source (e.g., Reddit, RSS feeds),
  • separate tools (e.g., ArchiveBox or browser‑level solutions) if you need heavy archival beyond Instapaper’s offline copies.
• If you want research‑style bookmarking with strong archiving and annotations: Diigo is worth a serious test run: suggested tags, good folder structures (outliners), archive snapshots, and import/export from most services.
• If “auto‑sync from Reddit/GitHub/YouTube + no manual organizing” is paramount and you can live without a native iOS app for now: Try Bookmarkjar as your “AI ingestion layer” and keep something like Instapaper or Cubox for deep reading, if needed.

If you tell me which of your bullets is absolutely non‑negotiable (e.g., native iOS vs. strong auto‑tagging vs. archive fidelity), a ranking tailored to that priority would be straightforward. ^{45464748495051525354555657585960616263646566676869707172737475767778798081828384858687888990919293949596979899100101102103104105106107108109110}
