I've used the app for at least a decade and loved it. In the past year it has been steadily heading downhill fast. The main benefit of Pocket has always been to save the text of articles offline so they could be read regardless of network connectivity. My complaint with the Windows version of Pocket was that you had to be online to read. They have chosen that same direction for the app overall. If all this app does is save links to articles, and doesn't download the text, its useless.

This is getting worse and worse. First, fewer and fewer articles have offline modes. Most just send me to the website, defeating its purpose. There isn't even consistency between two articles from the same website. One will save while the other one won't. There are inconsistencies between the web and mobile versions with some saves not showing up, and it gets past fewer and fewer paywalls now. Tweets of articles used to display the saved article with the tweet on top, now just show the tweet.

In addition to the issues I've raised in the past, the latest problem with this app is that when you save an article, you now have to click the tag button three times (sometimes only twice) to get the tagging box to open! I have noticed this on multiple devices, so it's not an issue with my phone. And yes, I am still dismayed by the utter lack of value in the Premium subscription that I paid for for too long. Permanent library? Searchable? Hardly.
