  • They generally seem to be shifting away from it being a basic “read it later” app primarily used to save articles that you come across and want to read later and are putting content discovery more front and center. When I opened the app recently a home page came up that had a few of my saved articles but it was mostly filled with suggested articles from the editors or recommended based on an algorithm. I then have to navigate to a different tab that has my “saves”. Looking at the list there is no longer an “archive” button, though I found out swiping will archive the article. Generally the UI has changed to be less intuitive and less focused on the articles that have already been saved.

    I used the app to quickly save articles I want to read but don’t have time in the moment and then to go back and read later with a cleaner, more standard format.
