Switch from Pocket
Pocket closed. Your reading list doesn’t have to.
Kept your Pocket export? Bring it into boilerpod in a few minutes: every article, every tag, and what you had already read. Then keep going with a reader you can tune, highlights that last, and a search that reads inside the pages.
What you get after the move
Everything comes acrossYour saves, your tags and your read state. Articles you had finished arrive already archived, so your list starts clean.
A reader you can make your ownTypeface, size, spacing and width. Focus mode. Your place kept on every device.
Highlights and notesFive colours, a note on each, and one Notebook for everything you have marked.
Search inside the articlesNot just titles. The words inside every saved page, PDF and book.
It files for youRules and Smart Inbox put new saves where they belong, so the Inbox never turns into a backlog.
Your data stays yoursExport everything, free, whenever you like: a bookmarks file, a full backup, or one ZIP with every page and file.
How to import
It is one upload. Nothing is saved until you have seen where it will go.
- Sign up for boilerpod. Free plan available. Verify your email and you are in.
- Open Import. In the app, go to Import and choose your Pocket export, the CSV file from Pocket’s final export or the older HTML file. boilerpod recognises it on sight.
- Check the preview. See how your saves will land. Read items arrive archived, tags come with them, and you can send anything to the Inbox instead.
- Start the import. It runs in the background. Close the page, come back to a report of what was saved.
Questions
Which Pocket export file does boilerpod accept?
Both: the CSV file from Pocket’s final export, and the older HTML export. If yours came as a ZIP, upload the CSV inside it.
Do my tags come across?
Yes. Tags arrive as tags, and you can nest, rename and colour them afterwards.
What about articles I had already read?
They arrive archived, out of the way but still searchable.
Can I import twice without duplicates?
Yes. Importing the same file again changes nothing, and a newer export brings in only what is new.
