Read
A calm reader that keeps your notes
Articles open without ads, pop-ups or tracking scripts, in the type and theme you like.

- Highlight in four colors, add notes, copy them as Markdown
- Share a quote, or send the whole article as one file that opens anywhere
Listen
Hear it while you walk
Laterleaf reads articles aloud, paragraph by paragraph, at the speed you like, and follows along in the text.

- Natural voices that run on your device, offline, with Pro: English, Spanish, German, French and Portuguese
- Each voice downloads once, and its size is shown first
Every device PRO
Your library on every device
Sync through a cloud you already have. Laterleaf uses only its own folder there, and nothing passes through a server of ours.
- Google Drive, Dropbox, or any WebDAV server: Nextcloud, ownCloud, Synology
- On your phone, a web app with your library, offline too
- Lock the cloud copy with a password: not even your cloud can read it
Everything else
Small, fast, and complete
Everything a read-later app should do, and the things others charge for: full-text search and copies that never expire are free here.
Search every word
Full-text search across everything you saved, with the matching passage shown. Japanese and Chinese too.
Offline and permanent
The text and images are kept, so an article stays readable even if the page changes or disappears.
Highlights and notes
Four colors and notes. Copy every highlight of an article as Markdown in one click.
Import in one go
Pocket (CSV or ZIP), Instapaper, Raindrop.io, browser bookmarks or any CSV of links. The text downloads by itself.
Leave whenever you like
Export everything to one ZIP: a full backup, Markdown, web pages and your links as bookmarks.
Tags, favorites, archive
Sort by date or length, act on many articles at once, and let finished ones archive themselves.

Save with Alt+Shift+S. Move around the library and the reader without the mouse: press ? to see how.
On your phone too
A web app reads your synced library offline and saves links from the share menu on Android. Pro.

Locked with your password
Encrypt the cloud copy, so that not even your cloud provider can read it.

Questions
Is Laterleaf really free?
Yes. Saving, reading, search, highlights, listening with your device’s voices, import and export are free, with no limit on articles. Pro adds sync between devices, the phone app and natural voices.
What happens to my articles if Laterleaf goes away?
They stay where they are: in your browser and, if you sync, in your own cloud. You can export everything to Markdown and web pages at any time.
How do I move my library from another app?
Export your list from the old app: Pocket gives a CSV or a ZIP, Instapaper a CSV, Raindrop.io a CSV or HTML file, and every browser can export its bookmarks as HTML. Then open Laterleaf → Settings → Import and choose the file just as it downloaded. Your links come in with their tags, favorites and archive where the file has them, and Laterleaf downloads each article’s text.
Does it work on my phone?
With Pro, yes: open the Laterleaf web app on your phone and add it to the home screen. Your synced library is there, offline too, and on Android you can save links from the share menu.
Do you see what I read?
No. Your articles never pass through a server of ours. With Pro, Laterleaf checks your plan once a day and sends only a random number that names your library.
What happens when Pro ends?
Nothing is deleted. Your library stays on every device, readable and exportable; sync pauses and natural voices turn off until you renew.
