About PickPocket (Pocket replacement 🙃)
Pickpocket – Because Pocket’s Gone... and I Couldn’t Just Let It Die
When I heard Pocket was shutting down, I did what any totally normal, emotionally stable person would do: I panicked, mourned, and then built my own version.
Enter Pickpocket – a sly little extension that borrows the best parts of Pocket, adds a sprinkle of charm, and helps you save the internet’s finest reads before they disappear into the scroll void.

🛋️ Clean, cozy reading mode (no ads, no chaos)
🧠 Organize your stash with tags and folders
💼 Built for ex-Pocket users, by an ex-Pocket user in denial
If you're looking for a lightweight, no-nonsense, slightly rebellious way to hoard interesting content, Pickpocket’s your new best friend. Steal back your reading list – legally. 🙃
Already have a Pocket archive? Import your old saves in just two clicks – easy as stealing candy from a distracted website.
And no, Pickpocket currently (subject to change if you ask politely 🙃) doesn’t sync across devices – on purpose.
It keeps everything local, right on your device, so your precious reads stay yours alone.
No clouds, no tracking, no creepy “You might also like…” suggestions.
Just your articles, your way.
