Mozilla announced Pocket is retiring on July 8th, 2025.
Do you use any Pocket alternative on Android?
I haven't found one yet that check all my boxes, and would welcome recommandation. My ideal app is:
- FOSS
- Able to read aloud articles (text to speech integration)
- Local first (no/optional server), or support a standard server protocol (eg webdav)
Wallabag seems to be FOSS and able to read aloud. But it require a server and doesn't support a standard storage protocol (eg Webdav). I'd like to keep my data private without having to maintain yet another server software installation.

Pocket is a redundant feature.
Just make a temp folder on your bookmark bar.

Creating a temp folder does not allow to read aloud articles using TTS. That's the only reason why I use Pocket. I don't use it to manage bookmarrks.

Wow can't believe pocket is ending after all this time! I'm also thinking about trying wallabag
