Instapaper for Android now available for $2.99

Instapaper for Android has arrived! For those who don't know. Instapaper is a wildly popular application (previously an exclusive iOS application) which allows users to save web pages for reading later. The application strips out all the ads and unnecessary content from the page and presents the text in a clean and intuitive UI. Users can manipulate the font size and style just as they would in any eReader application.

While the idea behind Instapaper is extremely simple, the implementation is the most critical aspect. Offline web page viewing is a feature which Google built into the updated web browsing experience in Android 4.0, but the interface in clunky and does not allow for much customization.

  • Dark Mode for night reading
  • Syncs your position in each article between multiple Android devices
  • Folders for organizing articles
