How much is Instapaper Premium?

On Nov 2, 2026, Instapaper's Premium page listed $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year. Saving articles is free.

Can Instapaper save TikToks or Instagram posts?

You can save their links, like any page, but Instapaper lists no import of your TikTok favorites or Instagram saved posts. Neatsaves brings in both lists.

Is Neatsaves a read-later app?

Not really. It doesn't have a reading mode. It collects your likes and bookmarks, sorts them, and gives each one a next step, and Today brings a few back each day.

Can I move my Instapaper links into Neatsaves?

Yes. Neatsaves imports a CSV, a browser bookmarks file or any list of links, then reads and sorts each one.

Does Neatsaves search inside my saves?

Yes, by meaning, on every plan. It reads each post and video, so a search finds a save even when the words don't match.

What Instapaper does well

Instapaper is one of the calmest ways to read an article later. Saving is free and unlimited, and Premium adds a permanent archive and AI voices.

The free plan saves unlimited articles, videos and pages, with folders and sync across web, iOS and Android (Premium page).
Premium keeps a permanent copy of each article, even if it disappears from the web (Premium page).
Premium also adds full-text search across your archive, a PDF reader and Kindle sending (Premium page).
AI voices read articles aloud as playlists on mobile (Premium page).

Where Neatsaves is different

Instapaper holds the articles you send it. Neatsaves goes into your social apps, brings back what you liked and bookmarked, and sorts it on the free plan.

Instapaper is built around articles you plan to read. A TikTok recipe or an X post about a new app doesn't fit that shape, and Instapaper's Premium page lists no way to bring in your liked or saved lists. The Neatsaves extension reads those lists on X, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Reddit and brings every post over.

Instapaper sorts by folders you make, and full-text search is a Premium feature. Neatsaves files each save into a category for you and searches by meaning on every plan. Type “something spicy for dinner” and the chili crisp noodles come up, though the post never says spicy.

Who should pick Instapaper, and who should pick Neatsaves

Pick Instapaper to read long articles later without distractions. Pick Neatsaves to sort the social posts and short videos you save while scrolling.

Instapaper fits readers who save articles to read on the train and want them clean and readable offline, or read aloud. It has native iOS and Android apps, and Neatsaves doesn't.
Neatsaves fits people whose saves live in X bookmarks, TikTok favorites and Instagram collections and who want them sorted and searchable in one place.
