Description of App
Instapaper is the simplest way to save and store articles for reading: offline, on-the-go, anytime, anywhere, perfectly formatted.
Instapaper for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch provides a mobile-optimized text view that makes reading Internet content a clean and uncluttered experience.
Instapaper also enhances the standard reading experience with features like text-to-speech, which can be controlled via the Apple Watch.
Instapaper has been inducted into the iPhone and iPad Hall of Fame, received Macworld Editor's Choice Award, and has also been featured in publications
including Wired, TIME, Daring Fireball, and The Verge, among others.

- Save to Instapaper from other iOS applications with one tap.
Additional Features:
- Control every aspect of your reading experience with a variety of font, color themes, and spacing options.
- Find that great quote you want to remember and share? Instapaper makes it easy to highlight text in any article.
- Have your Instapaper articles narrated to you with text-to-speech. Just turn up the volume on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and relax!

Funny Issues on the iPad
When using Instapaper on the iPod, the display works beautifully. I find it extremely easy to use. But when I'm on the iPad, it is generally easy enough to use but I have some strange issues with the controls to archive/delete, Actions, and other buttons related to the currently focused article. I think these controls should appear at the top and bottom of the entire article but when I try to navigate with "Explore by touch", I have a hard time tracking them down; sometimes, they seem to disappear on me. I'm not sure if it is an issue with this app or if VO does funny things on the iPad. I would welcome other comments to see what exactly might be going on here.
Otherwise, it is an app that I use multiple times every day. I love it.
