Can replace the Instapaper Pocket?
Technologies / / December 19, 2019
I can not imagine my life without the Pocket. For me Pocket - is an application that I always install the earliest. And if earlier competition between services Deferred reading was noticeable, it is now Pocket almost the only way to put off the article for later.
And if Readability can no longer compete with the Pocket as a service deferred reading, then Instapaper still have at least some chance. Instapaper has a flat black-and-white interface without any frills. The main screen includes a different folder materials. Perhaps the most important folders are read later review. The first contains all articles, you deferred until later, and the second allows you to search for these articles.
Of course, all the articles proposed by Instapaper, in English, but you can search for articles not only in it. As well as in the Pocket, there are extensions for the browser, in addition to this, Instapaper is supported by many third-party applications.
We went up to my favorite chip Instapaper. I still do not understand why other developers have not guessed add this feature in their reading room. It may be the case in the patents? Scrolling inclination (tilt-scrolling) allows you to scroll up or down the material only slightly tilting the device in the desired direction. It's really very convenient.
Standard settings: You can enable or disable the rotation, change the background and choose the way of scrolling. Standard text-formatting functions are also present. To Instapaper, you can connect a variety of services like Twitter, Facebook, Evernote, Tumblr and others.
