A tablet displays a list of saved articles from Instapaper. The screen shows titles like 'The Death of the Minors' and 'Canzano: The CW and Pac-12 make TV deal official,' with dates and reading times. The tablet rests on a wooden surface.

Overview

  • The change is arriving via firmware versions 4.38.23429 and 4.43.23418 that are now reaching devices.
  • After updating, users link their Kobo at a special URL, then find saved stories in the Articles view under My Articles for E‑Ink reading.
  • Distribution is staggered across regions, so some users will see the update later than others.
  • Instapaper delivers stripped‑down offline reading with a native Kobo integration, unlike Kindle’s reliance on Send to Kindle or Instapaper’s premium send feature.
  • Pocket ended service on July 8, 2025, with data exports available through October for users who need to migrate content.
