Here's how each one works in 2026, what changed after Pocket shut down, and how to send to all of them from one extension. - Author: Michal Wlosik - Tags: Web reading, Guides **Short answer:** every major e-reader has its own way to receive web articles. Kindle has Amazon's Send to Kindle extension and email address, Kobo syncs with a free Instapaper account now that Pocket is gone, BOOX takes files through BOOXDrop or the send2boox website, and PocketBook has a personal Send-to-PocketBook email address. If you read on more than one device, a single browser extension that sends to all of them saves a lot of fiddling. This guide walks through each device's built-in method, what it costs in 2026, and where the catches are. Full disclosure: we make Bookbeam, and our free Chrome extension, Send to Bookbeam, is one of the options below. We've tried to give the built-in tools a fair hearing, because for many people they're enough. ## Sending articles to e-readers: the options at a glance | Device | Built-in way to send articles | Cost | Main catch | | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | | Kindle | Amazon's Send to Kindle extension for Chrome, Send to Kindle email, web upload, Kindle app | Free | Email only works from addresses on your approved list | | Kobo | Instapaper integration (More → Articles); Dropbox or Google Drive on select models | Instapaper account is free for Kobo use | Pocket support ended in July 2025 | | BOOX | BOOXDrop app, send2boox website, or any Android app you install | Free | Sends files, not web pages, so you need a clean file first | | PocketBook | Send-to-PocketBook email address (@pbsync.com) | Free | New senders have to be approved (whitelisted) first | | Any of the above | Send to Bookbeam Chrome extension | Free tier: 15 articles a month; unlimited on Pro and Lifetime | Chrome-based browsers on desktop | ## How to send web articles to a Kindle Amazon gives you more official routes than anyone else. According to Amazon's help pages, you can send documents to your Kindle library through the Send to Kindle website, the Kindle app for iOS and Android, your device's Send to Kindle email address, the Send to Kindle desktop app for Mac and Windows, and a Chrome extension for web articles and blog posts. ### Option 1: Amazon's Send to Kindle extension for Chrome This is the simplest way to send a single article. Install the extension, sign in with your Amazon account, open an article, click the icon and send. Amazon strips the page down to readable text and delivers it to your Kindle library, where it shows up on your devices and in the Kindle apps. It costs nothing. The limits: it works page by page, it only sends to Kindle, and how clean the result looks depends on how well the extension reads the page layout. Paywalled or script-heavy pages sometimes come through with missing parts. ### Option 2: Email an article to your Kindle Every Kindle has a Send to Kindle email address ending in @kindle.com, which you'll find in your Amazon account under your devices and personal document settings. Amazon only accepts mail from addresses on your "Approved Personal Document E-mail List," so add the address you send from before you try. Supported files include EPUB, PDF, HTML, RTF, TXT and common image formats. If you save an article as an EPUB first (many read-later tools and browser extensions can do this), emailing it gives you proper chapters and reflowable text. Uploads through Amazon's website can be up to 200 MB. ### Option 3: Read-later services that deliver to Kindle If you like collecting articles during the day and reading them in one batch, a read-later service is handy. Two changes in the last year are worth knowing about: - **Pocket is gone.** Mozilla shut Pocket down in July 2025, so any Pocket-to-Kindle setup has stopped working. - **Instapaper's Kindle delivery is now paid.** From February 19, 2026, Instapaper's Send to Kindle feature requires Instapaper Premium, which costs $6 a month or $60 a year. Instapaper said the conversion and emailing was running at a loss. FiveFilters' Push to Kindle is another long-running option, with browser extensions and mobile apps, a free allowance and a paid plan. It can also send to Kobo and PocketBook addresses, which helps if you have more than one device. ![Send to Bookbeam extension showing destinations: Bookbeam library, Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook, reMarkable and BOOX](https://www.bookbeam.tools/content/images/2026/11/image-mvzek81k.webp) Send to Bookbeam lets you pick a destination each time: your Bookbeam library or another e-reader. ## How to send web articles to a Kobo Kobo e-readers had a Pocket integration for years. Kobo's help center confirms that Pocket stopped working on July 8, 2025, and that Pocket data was deleted after October 8, 2025, so if you didn't export your saves, they're gone. Kobo's replacement is Instapaper. After a firmware update in August 2025, you can link an Instapaper account on your Kobo, and articles you save to Instapaper sync to the device under **More → Articles**. Kobo's own "ways to read" page describes Instapaper as a free service, and the 2026 Instapaper paywall doesn't affect Kobo, because Kobo uses Instapaper's API rather than email delivery. Setting it up: 1. Create a free Instapaper account and install its browser extension or mobile app. 2. On your Kobo, update the firmware, then go to More → Articles and link your Instapaper account. Some owners report needing to sync or restart a couple of times before the option appears. 3. Save articles with the Instapaper button. Sync your Kobo to pull them down. For finished files (an EPUB of a long-read, say), select Kobo models can import from Dropbox and Google Drive, and every Kobo accepts files over USB.

Officially, BOOX gives you two ways to get files onto the device from a computer: - **BOOXDrop (local transfer):** with the BOOX and your computer on the same Wi-Fi, open the BOOXDrop app on the device, type the address it shows into your computer's browser, and drop files in. - **send2boox (online transfer):** log in at push.boox.com (US) or eur.boox.com (Europe), open the BOOXDrop tab and upload. Files show up in the Push tab of BOOXDrop on the device. Both move files, not web pages. So you first need to turn the article into a clean EPUB or PDF, then send that file. It works, but it's two steps for every article. The easier route on a BOOX is to skip file transfers entirely and use an Android reading app that has its own inbox. Bookbeam Reader runs on BOOX, so articles you send with the extension land straight in your library and sync to the app on your BOOX, phone and tablet, with your reading position. If you're still choosing a reader for your BOOX, our guide to [the best reading app for BOOX](https://www.bookbeam.tools/blog/best-reading-app-for-boox/) compares Bookbeam with NeoReader and others. ![Sending a web article to the Bookbeam library from the Chrome extension](https://www.bookbeam.tools/content/images/2026/11/image-mvzek83g.webp) One click sends the article, cleaned up as a readable e-book, to your library. ## How to send web articles to a PocketBook PocketBook e-readers have a feature called Send-to-PocketBook. You set it up on the device and get a personal address ending in **@pbsync.com**. Anything emailed to that address (EPUB, PDF and other supported files) downloads to your reader the next time it connects. The one catch is the sender check. The first time a new address sends something, PocketBook emails you to say a message from an unknown sender arrived. Click "add to whitelist" in that email, and future deliveries from that address go through automatically. If your article seems to vanish, check for that approval email first. To get articles into Send-to-PocketBook, you need a tool that turns a web page into an e-book and emails it. Push to Kindle supports PocketBook as a destination, and so does Send to Bookbeam. ## One extension for every device: Send to Bookbeam We built [Send to Bookbeam](https://www.bookbeam.tools/send/) because we kept hitting the same problem: one reader on the desk, another in the bag, and a different sending method for each. It's a Chrome extension that turns a web article (or a YouTube video) into a readable e-book and sends it where you choose: - your Bookbeam library, which syncs to Bookbeam Reader on Android phones, tablets, BOOX and other Android e-readers, plus the free web library at books.bookbeam.tools; - Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook, reMarkable or BOOX, delivered by email, Dropbox or Google Drive, depending on the device. The free plan includes 15 articles and 5 YouTube videos a month. Pro ($6.99 a month or $59.99 a year) makes articles unlimited, and every new account starts with a 7-day Pro trial with no card needed. If you want videos too, see [how to turn a YouTube video into an e-book](https://www.bookbeam.tools/blog/youtube-to-ebook/). Where the built-in tools are better: if you only own a Kindle and send the odd article, Amazon's free extension is hard to beat. And if you're a Kobo owner who already lives in Instapaper, the native integration is smooth and costs nothing. Send to Bookbeam earns its place when you have more than one device, read on Android e-ink, or want articles to sit next to your books with highlights and progress synced.

Our [EPUB vs PDF guide](https://www.bookbeam.tools/blog/epub-vs-pdf/) goes into why. - **Batch your reading.** Collect articles during the day and read them in one sitting on the e-reader. It's calmer than reading in the browser, with no notifications or ads. - **Check images and tables.** Article cleaners sometimes drop charts or embeds. For data-heavy pieces, glance at the result before you rely on it. - **Use a remote for long reads.** A cheap Bluetooth page turner makes a long-read in bed much nicer. See our [page turner setup guide](https://www.bookbeam.tools/blog/bluetooth-page-turner-android/). - **Keep the e-ink screen clean.** If text leaves faint traces after a few pages, a periodic full refresh helps. Our guide to [reducing ghosting](https://www.bookbeam.tools/blog/reduce-ghosting-boox/) explains the settings.

Yes. Amazon's own Send to Kindle extension for Chrome is free, and so is emailing files to your @kindle.com address from an approved sender. What changed in 2026 is that Instapaper's automatic Kindle delivery now needs Instapaper Premium. ### What replaced Pocket on Kobo? Instapaper. Kobo e-readers on current firmware can link an Instapaper account and show your saved articles under More → Articles. Pocket itself shut down in July 2025. ### Can I email articles to a BOOX? BOOX doesn't advertise an email address for documents the way Kindle and PocketBook do. Use BOOXDrop or the send2boox website for files, or a reading app with its own inbox, such as Bookbeam. ### Why didn't my article arrive on my PocketBook? Most likely the sender isn't approved yet. Look for PocketBook's email about an unknown sender and click "add to whitelist." Future deliveries from that address will then arrive automatically. ### Can I send YouTube videos to my e-reader too? Send to Bookbeam can turn a YouTube video into a readable e-book and send it to your library or another e-reader. The free plan includes 5 videos a month, and Pro includes 60. ## Read the web like a book Whichever device you own, getting articles off the browser and onto paper-like e-ink is one of the best reading upgrades you can make. If you want one tool for every device, and a library that keeps articles and books together across your phone, tablet and BOOX, give Bookbeam a try.
