Your Speak feature isn’t working. Deleted and reloaded the app still an issue, can we get another update.
Update 2/28/24: Perhaps I was too rash. Maybe I was just frustrated. But I’m back as a paid subscriber. I dipped my toes into the Pocket world and it just didn’t feel right. Instapaper has been my go to article saver for as long as I can remember and I just like it so much. Subtracting two stars because meaningful feature updates are rare and the developers aren’t the best at communicating or support compared to other iOS apps. Old review: Subscription price just doubled. The app and lack of any real development doesn’t justify the price increase when the main feature I use is search. More than half the time it doesn’t find what I know should be there anyway in the iOS app. I’m a long time subscriber and supporter. In fact, this was my first subscription on the App Store. Sadly, I’ve decided to unsubscribed today. I’ll likely switch to Pocket. It’s a little cheaper… and most importantly, didn’t just double their price.
Not only has the price of the subscription doubled in the last few months, but subscribing in the app DOES NOT unlock the premium features for this app. If you try and reach out to the devs for help they'll simply ignore you.

The update in November 2023 ruined Instapaper for those of us who use text to speech features in the app OR through iPhone or iPad OS. Used to be a five star app but is one star at the moment.
Have been a paying subscriber for years with Instapaper and it works well for the limited functionality I want : copy text from a web page and I’ll “read it later”. They’ve now just announced the sub will double in price from $30 to $60. First Evernote doubled their prices, now this. I think I’m moving to Readwise or just using functionality built into Safari.
Nice
I kept many many important articles archived here …and then suddenly …on its own…the number of archived articles saved dialed itself back to 10 … I lost dozens and dozens of things that were important to me that I can’t recover…. be careful with this app… you’ve been warned…
For some reason the app now will just stop reading articles in CarPlay halfway through and sometimes just a few seconds in. Please fix with an update.
I've never subscribed, but it was paid monthly through regular subscription, and when I inquired, I said it was correct that I didn't subscribe, and I said I would cancel it, but it was paid again;;;;;;
