One of the key defining features of Pocket is that it provides its users the ability to sync their saved articles across multiple platforms. Pages you pocket on your computer can be viewed on your smartphone, and vice versa. In addition, any changes made (such as deleting an article) from one platform carries over to the other.

This flexibility is why users love Pocket: anything can be saved, or picked up and read, anywhere! To a degree, this includes offline functionality. While saving articles does require an internet connection, you can read saved articles while offline.

Here's how to sync your pocket account on your computer and smartphone:

1. Go to http://www.getpocket.com;
