Pocket, an iOS app.

Hello all, I installed an app on my iPhone 5S called pocket, formally Read It Later. It is an app that will allow you to save things for reading later. I set up my account within the app, but I can't figure out how to save things I find to read at a later time. In Tweet List I saw a button that said read later, so I double tapped on it. When I went to the pocket app nothing was there, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong here. I would like to save articles I find in Face book, or Twitter, but I use the Tweet List app for viewing my Twitter feed. This is a free app, so I thought I would give it a try. I'm now wondering if InstaPaper would do a better job at this sort of thing. Any help with this will be very much appreciated! Thank you.

Hello there, You need to go into the settings for the tweetlist app and choose the read it later service you would like the "read it later" button to save those articals to. Once you have selected pocket, if that service is supported under settings in the tweetlist app, only then will the article go to your pocket account when tapping the read it later button inside of tweetlist. I have an insta-paper account and I have that set up with my sign in credentials saved inside of the tweetlist app, so that when I tap on the read it later button, the article is automatically sent to my insta-paper app. HTH. Let me know if you need further assistance. -Andrew-

Hello Andrew, I found it in the TweetList settings, and I chose Pocket. I then put in my username and password for my Pocket account, so when I find another article that I want to save we shall see if it works. I hope it does. Thank you for the help!

Hello Andrew, Would I do the same thing within the Face Book app? I looked around in the Face Book app, but I didn't find a place for doing this.It would be nice to save articles I find in Face Book if it is possible. Thank you.

Hello Andrew, I have been considering purchasing Insta Paper, so I was just wondering how you like it? If you wouldn't mind sharing your thoughts on the app. Thank you.
