With the Pocket app, you can save articles and stories from websites that you’d like to read on your Kobo eReader.

First, you'll need to create a Pocket account and install the Pocket app on your web browser or smartphone. 

Once you save an article to Pocket and sync your device—like your eReader or smartphone—the article will be available for you to read later.
