Atode lets you bookmark and save news, blog or other website articles for reading later. It doesn’t simply save links to those pages you want to return to, it also downloads their content and converts it to a minimal format.

Read anything you saved later with just the essential text and images, without any headers, ads or clutter to get in the way.

Refer to the Get Started Guide for more information about the reader app.

Atode is a read-it-later app to save and read articles later. Although similar to other apps such as Pocket or Instapaper, it is different in many ways.

The app is focused on bookmarking text based content. It can capture news, blog or other website articles with no hassle. Atode doesn’t simply save links to those pages, it also downloads their content and converts it to a minimal format. However, videos, pdf files or other media formats are not supported.

Atode is mainly intended as a simple reader app. The reader’s design is carefully crafted for articles and offers custom styles for better readability and distraction-free reading. But text-to-speech or playlists with articles to be read aloud are not currently supported.

The app integrates with Apple services (Safari, Widgets, Shortcuts). No external account is required, all articles or highlights are stored in your personal iCloud account. You can export articles and annotations in text, markdown or json format or save their content as plain text.

Atode does not collect or sell any personal information and won’t try to promote you paid articles you don’t want to read. It is the only private read it later app (as in it doesn’t rely on advertising and user data) and it keeps your data safe.

If you are looking for a simple reader app to save and read website articles later, then Atode could be a good replacement for Pocket or Instapaper. Otherwise, there may be better alternatives.

Do you want to know more about the app? Read the Get Started Guide to find out or simply download it from the App Store. Atode is free to use. Every feature, setting, theme or preference is available and lets you try out the full reader.

No, like with Photos, Books or other Apple apps, you do not need to signup or login. Your personal iCloud account from that device is used. But you will need to be signed in on your device with the same Apple ID on all platforms.

All articles and annotations are stored securely in a private database in your iCloud account. Storage limits apply and depend on your corresponding plan.

Atode is available for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Please note that you need to be signed in on your device with the same Apple ID on all platforms.

The app is published on Apple’s App Stores. You can download it for free.

The Atode app comes bundled with a share extension, which integrates with any other iOS app. Save articles directly from e.g. Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Twitter, Medium or Reeder by using the bookmark extension. As an alternative, you can also use the native Safari extension.

See the Bookmark Extension Guide for how to enable and use the extensions.

The bookmark extension integrates with any browser or app that supports sharing either a web page or link. Below is a non-exhaustive list of such apps.

The Atode app includes widgets to quickly view and open your latest, unread, favorite or random articles.

Refer to the Widgets Guide for how to enable and use the widget.

Atode is free to use and includes all basic features. Every setting, theme or preference is available and lets you try out the unrestricted reader. However, there is a limit to the number of bookmarks you can save per month.

A premium subscription offers additional or unlimited bookmarks per month.

Your purchase supports the further development of the app. Thanks!
