The Readability bookmarking service will shut down on September 30, 2016.
After more than five years of operation, the Readability article bookmarking/read-it-later service will be shutting down after September 30, 2016.
If you’d like to save your bookmarks, please follow these directions before September 30, 2016. You can export your bookmarks by visiting your Tools page, scrolling down to the Data Export section, and clicking the Export Your Data button. You’ll receive an email soon after that contains your bookmarks. Similar services like Instapaper will allow you to import your bookmarks into their service.
The Readability Parser API for developers will continue to be supported and will continue to function as always. We plan to put new energy and focus on the Readability parser, and further announcements will follow. If you’ve requested an API key in the past, you will have received an email with additional details.
Since it launched as a simple bookmarklet in 2009, the Readability project’s impact on reading on the web and beyond is undeniable. We appreciate your loyalty and support for the platform over the years.
