User reviews

Perfect for Pocket

The iOS Pocket app gets quite large and I prefer to view my articles in safari. Another reviewer mentioned, with Safari, ad blockers can be used but not so much with the Pocket app. I just wanted an easy, lightweight way to browse my saved article titles and click to open the full story in Safari...and I have found it! Highly recommended!

Thank you to the developer for your time,?knowledge and hard work used to develop this free app! It’s very much appreciated!

Thank you!

I have been using the web-based pocket, because of not liking having to switch to Safari to read articles. Your app gives me the best of both worlds! Thank you!

Does exactly what I wanted

Outta pocket and into safari. Safari's reading mode is better than pockets and you can use OS pop up blockers, which is not so easy in Pocket. This app makes my Pocket experience perfect.

Rubbish

This guy needs to quit making apps. No need to discount your apps they're rubbish!

Ever Pocket User needs this!

Fast simple and straight to your saved articles!!
