Welcome to Pocket! We’re thrilled to have you. You’ve just taken a huge step toward reclaiming your online life, discovering fascinating new content, and making your relationship with the internet, well, better. More delightful. Time well spent.
Here’s the thing about Pocket: It allows you to do a lot of things. You can save (and organize) anything from across the web—and discover great new content in the process. So we wanted to take a brief moment to introduce you to some of our most-loved and most-popular features.
Our award-winning app
Pro tip: If you haven’t already done so, it’s a great idea to download our mobile app, which you can find in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Pocket is, by design, mobile: It’s available everywhere you go, across devices and web browsers. So when you save an article on your computer, it will be instantly available in the Pocket app on your phone or tablet—and vice versa. All of the content you save goes wherever you go, and is available whenever you are.
Save all your inspirations
Let’s talk about where you found this article you’re reading now: in the My List section of Pocket. This is your Pocket home — a space just for you and all the things that fascinate you. It’s where all the things you’ve saved for later — whether it’s an article, a tweet, a video, a recipe, and more — will live, waiting for you to come back to when you are ready.

Once you get going, we have a sneaking suspicion you’ll discover and save a lot of things. So we offer tags to help you keep track of everything in your Pocket.
