Instapaper For Android Hits The Google Play Store

Instapaper has long been a favorite app for iOS users, but today Android users can finally join the club. Instapaper launched in the Google Play Store a few hours ago and since has been downloaded on all of my devices. Instapaper is a competitor to Pocket (formerly ReadItLater), and it has been one of my top needed smartphone services for quite some time.

The purpose behind Instapaper is to save the articles that you would like to read, but just don’t have the time to right when you stumble over them. When something is saved to Instapaper, it is immediately downloaded in a compact, text-only version that is made specifically for your phone or tablet’s screen. This makes having to deal with waiting for web pages to load a thing of the past, as the service downloads your articles in the background and prepares them for later use. You can customize the font style, font size, dark or light themes, and just about anything else you would expect from a reader application. The only downside is the steep $2.99 price tag that may make competing apps such as Pocket seem a little more appetizing. If you have Instapaper for Android, be sure to let us know what you think of the Android version in the comments below, and hit the Play link to give it a try.
