- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12274245, 8 years agoGreat Pocket addon. All essential features are there and work. And it is beautiful!
Things I'd like to see:
- Automatically remove or archive Pocket entry when it's opened
- Automatically close the tab when adding the page to Pocket
- Some form of lazy loading or page-by-page loading of the list to make it snappierDeveloper response
posted 8 years agoThanks for your feedback BubiBalboa :) Glad you like it so far!
So far, I focus on making everything working as well as possible, with basic features and a solid foundation for improvements later. So I think automations will come in a second time, it's a bit more tricky cause there are many possibilities and users request many kinds of different scenarios. As for the page by page loading, it's in the roadmap, and to be honest I didn't think there would be so many requests on this... I'll have to think this through, stay tuned :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Kreen Chang, 8 years ago“In My Pocket” version, 4.0 is awesome.
Especially implement the very efficient feature of the clickable indicator in the address bar. And the missing article name issue looks like fixed already.
This add-on seems the best pocket add-on far from official one. Suggest that people who use Pocket service frequently should install this extension and may fall in love with this quickly. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12969830, 8 years agoI just love the add-on. It works well from the very beginning and it keeps updating and adding features. I just miss having the ability to tag my pockets, but I wouldn't be surprised if it suddenly comes with an update!

posted 8 years agoThanks suer_one :) As for the tag, this is a big feature and many users seem to need this, so I definitely intend to add it some day but don't know when yet. - Rated 5 out of 5by nivaca, 8 years agoLove this extension. The closest to the original Pocket addon. Works smoothly.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13092835, 8 years agoI love this add-on -- It's become one of my core essential Firefox add-ons.
I like the look of your road map, but can I suggest something like accelereader's functionality for Chrome. Specifically, accelereader adds reading time tags for each article (e.g. 5 min, 12 min, etc). It's a great way to plan reading binges.
Please add that to your road map.Developer response

Hum OK, this is indeed interesting. I see how this works for "content" pages, but what happens when you save, say the main page of a website, with not much content but many links? Is the duration still relevant? I'll add this to my roadmap as an idea to explore in a first time, thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by 420bootywizard, 8 years agoEDIT--------
Since my initial review the developer has updated their add on, and it now has all of the features I need for functionality. My rating has been adjusting accordingly.
_____________________
A valiant effort, but not really any more usable in its current state than the default add on.
It is missing several critical features.
-No way to see if the current page is currently saved.
-No way to mark the current page as read
Potential for a great add-on, but not really usable as a replacement currently.Developer response
posted 8 years agoThanks for the feedback! That's harsh, I still am confident that this addon provides a lot more than the built-in pocket addon. Anyway, the features you're talking about are coming, I need to review some code that was supplied to the project, and build upon that. Thanks again for your feedback and we'll keep on improving the addon as much as possible :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Osuka, 8 years agoGreat development! i never realized that pocket icon wasnt on my Firefox anymore, thanks for bringing it back.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12830903, 8 years agoThanks for this great tool!
Is there a way to search the tags? Also, is there a way to go to the Pocket website (the original tool didn't provide a way, either.)? Thanks, again.Developer response
posted 8 years agoThanks for your review, I'm glad this addon is useful to you. As for the tag, it's one of the features I intend to add "someday". I'm not sure yet how I'll do this but it's definitely on my roadmap : http://bit.ly/inmypocketroadmap. As for your other suggestion, I did not really understand, if you want to explain further, you can send me a message here : http://bit.ly/inmypocketcontact. Thanks again :) - Rated 5 out of 5by isari, 8 years agoI'm just another lover of Pocket addon before being integrated into Firefox and have been eager the functionality that expand pocket list without any screen transition.
This addon is exactly what we've desired in this several years.
Current version seems to lack some features like tag system and organization, but I'll gradly be waiting for further implementations. Thanks to great work!Developer response
posted 8 years agoYes, I suppose you're just like me, missing the old firefox addon... :)
I've not dealt with the tags feature for now as I'm not sure how I will implement and design this, but it seems to be an important feature for many users so it's definitely on my roadmap that you can find here : http://bit.ly/inmypocketroadmap . Thanks again for your review and feedback! - Rated 5 out of 5by Boray Eris, 8 years agoIs it possible to add different icon color for pages bookmarked before?
Developer response
posted 8 years agoHello and thanks for your review and suggestion! This is possible, and I intend to do it in an upcoming release. I have several solutions for this feature and still need to decide how I'll do it, but it's definitely on my todo list.
BTW you can have a look at the public roadmap of the project, and even vote for your favorite ideas if you have a Trello account : https://trello.com/b/MfdNQXzX/public-roadmap - Rated 5 out of 5by through_a_haze, 8 years agoI very miss for favicons next to list items like in the old Pocket addon. So I would be very glad if you will consider adding those favicons.

posted 8 years agoThanks for the comment, I'm glad it helps! I'd like to add this feature indeed, but I've got other things planned first. But it's definitely on my todo list. Thanks again for using "in my pocket" :) - Rated 5 out of 5by Abstract Duck, 8 years agoHaving the pocket items in a quick drop-down menu is much better than having to open a new tab!
