80% of the time, it works every time
Instapaper mostly works great! I often use it to transfer articles to my Kobo. It often misses images, which isn’t usually a big deal. It usually fails to import academic articles, especially those that I have access via a redirect to my University’s library. It also tends to split lines in half after the first few pages of reading. It will show the top half of the letters in a line on one page, and then the bottom half of those letters on the next page. Other than these relatively small issues, it is working well for me!

Used to love the app, not the newest update
I updated the app on my ipad, but I'm so disappointed with it that I have decided not to update my iphone. As other people have said, the new font is too small, and I haven't found a way to change the font. Second, I can't find a way to share an article via email. At least on the ipad, the share option is missing. Please add this back!

Excellent Pocket alternative
Current review: The latest update made the type too small for the list of saved stories. Please bring back the larger type size for the list of saved stories. Earlier review: Now that Pocket is closing shop, I needed an alternative. I like to find music on my iPad by listening to YouTube videos in the Brave browser. When I would find an album that I might want to purchase, I would save it to Pocket, open Pocket on my Mac, click on the YouTube video, and then watch the video in the Brave browser on my Mac which is connected to my home stereo music system. Now I can use Instapaper instead of Pocket, and it works perfectly just like Pocket. Nice! I am so happy about how well Instapaper works now.

Removed random article selection
The new version brings smaller fonts, and ruined the sculpt to select a random article through an iOS shortcut
Great update
The new 10.0 update makes everything I love about Instapaper even better. The new UI makes affordances clearer. The new fonts are thoughtfully chosen. And article counts in the menu tell me just how many articles I haven’t read yet! Great work as ever; I’m proud to be a subscriber.
