Omnivore is the free, open source, read-it-later app for serious readers. I’m looking into setting up this read-it-later service. I have a lot of URLs saved in my browser and need a place to bookmark them as well. Thinking this is a good place to start.
Anyone else using omnivore?
Out of the loop. Mind telling me what changes have Pocket made to their app?
They generally seem to be shifting away from it being a basic “read it later” app primarily used to save articles that you come across and want to read later and are putting content discovery more front and center. When I opened the app recently a home page came up that had a few of my saved articles but it was mostly filled with suggested articles from the editors or recommended based on an algorithm. I then have to navigate to a different tab that has my “saves”. Looking at the list there is no longer an “archive” button, though I found out swiping will archive the article. Generally the UI has changed to be less intuitive and less focused on the articles that have already been saved.
I used the app to quickly save articles I want to read but don’t have time in the moment and then to go back and read later with a cleaner, more standard format.
