Reader Mode for iOS: save articles and read offline

If you’re tired of cluttered pages, pop‑ups, and endless tabs, Reader Mode is the cleanest way to read. LinkBook makes it fast to save any article, extract the text, and come back later — even without internet.

In this guide

  • How to save articles from any iOS app.
  • Where Reader Mode lives in LinkBook.
  • How offline reading works after one open.
  • Tips to keep your read‑later list tidy.

Save articles from any app

LinkBook works anywhere iOS shows the Share Sheet — Safari, social apps, newsletters, and more. Tap Share → LinkBook, add a title or folder if you want, and you’re done. Your article appears in your library immediately.

Tip: If you save a lot, create a “Read Later” folder once and file new items there.

Open Reader Mode from the info view

Tap any saved item to open the info view. This screen is your control center: it shows key details and provides the Open in Reader action for distraction‑free reading.

Offline reading happens automatically in Premium

On Premium, LinkBook fetches reader text in the background after you save a link (when it’s an eligible article). That means your offline copy is prepared automatically — perfect for flights, commutes, and low‑signal moments.

Pro tip: if a link isn’t an article, Reader Mode may not be available.

Keep your read‑later list organized

Reader Mode works best when your library stays tidy. Use folders for broad topics, favorites for what you want to finish soon, and search to jump back to key articles instantly.

  • Create one “Read Later” folder and keep it lean.
  • Favorite the 3–5 items you’ll read this week.
  • Search by title or site when you need to revisit.
