Pocket will no longer be available after July 8, 2025.

You can continue using the app and browser extensions until this date. After July 8, Pocket will move into export-only mode. Users can export saves anytime until October 8, 2025, after which user data will be permanently deleted. Why is Pocket shutting down?

Pocket has helped millions save articles and discover stories worth reading. But the way people use the web has evolved, so we’re channeling our resources into projects that better match their browsing habits and online needs.

So they forced me to migrate my pocket account to my Mozilla account, breaking login in my Kobo reader and then 6 months later they kill it? Couldn't just directly kill it?

O don't use an e-reader, but I remember the stress their migration process gave me. That's when I found omnivore. Unfortunately for me that was 3 months before they have to shut down lol. Now I'm back at Instapaper. Shouldn't have left it for pocket way back then.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
