Overview
Save articles to read later. Import your Pocket list in one click. Local-first, no account, no subscription.
Pocket shut down. Your reading list shouldn't die with it. Lector is a read-it-later extension built the way these tools used to be: fast, private, and yours. RESCUE YOUR POCKET LIST IN ONE CLICK Drag in the export file Pocket gave you. Every article, tag, and read/unread status appears in seconds - hundreds of articles, no account needed. A READER THAT RESPECTS YOUR ATTENTION Save any page with one click (or Cmd+Shift+S). Ads, popups and clutter are stripped away by Mozilla's Readability engine - the same one Firefox uses. Serif or sans, light, sepia or dark, your place remembered. TAGS, SEARCH, KEYBOARD Tags with autocomplete. Press / to search everything. Navigate with arrows, star with S, archive with A. With 400 saved articles, anything is findable in seconds. SYNC WITHOUT A SERVER Your library backs up to a hidden app file in YOUR OWN Google Drive. We run no servers and can't see your data - Lector can only access the one file it creates, never your Drive files. Read on your phone with the companion mobile app. AI THAT RUNS ON YOUR COMPUTER Explain jargon and translate articles using Chrome's built-in AI (Gemini Nano) - on-device, free, nothing sent to any cloud. Highlight passages and export beautiful notes to Obsidian or Notion (Pro). NO SUBSCRIPTION, EVER Free: 50 saved articles, full reader, tags, search, highlights. Pro ($19.99 ONCE, lifetime): unlimited articles, Drive sync, notes export. No trial that auto-charges. No monthly bill. Nothing to cancel. PRIVACY - No account, no tracking, no analytics, no server. - Your data lives in your browser and (optionally) your own Google Drive. - Minimal permissions: reads a page only when you save it. Made for readers who lost Pocket and refuse to rent their reading list back for $120/yr.
