Memoir

I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's something really special about the experience of reading in Matter. I've been using it for 3 weeks now and have read so many more articles and extracted a lot more knowledge than usual. I particularly like the social element as well. Getting one of the articles I shared as a "staff pick" was really cool. The team is highly active in development, and some of the features like Readwise and email subscription integration is awesome as well. Kudos to the team!

I have been using Matter and discovering Matter for about a month now and it's a really well executed App, resolving various problems related to discovering, curating and managing quality content. Heads-up to the team, nicely done 💪🏻

I've been using for a couple weeks, and love it! Best things about Matter — email newsletters and read later articles are together, highlighting with Apple Pencil is so smooth, and the whole design is super clean! ✨

This has quickly become my go to Read It Later service during the beta. The ability to read and triage newsletters and read articles I saved for later all in one place is a killer combination and clears up my inbox. Loving it.

I abandoned Pocket and Instapaper for Matter, I really love this app! I love the newsletter forward feature, as well as the social aspect and recommendations. Text to speech is great, highlighting is seemless. And most importantly, syncs with Readwise! I love it!

Truly one of the best reading experiences. Yes, we can treat as a “save-for-later” but the magical aspect of Matter is the community and the way it surfaces the best reads. We now live in a world that constantly bombard us with information simply to maintain our attention and that’s often hard to navigate. Matter is changing that. The social aspect focuses around insights and sharing beautiful well-written pieces. And, that immediately changes the dynamics of the social network and the relationship with the content being shared and consumed. It’s nuanced, and hard to explain, but once you use it, you get it, and it’s hard to imagine a different experience thereafter. The audio component is also extremely handy well designed. I wish nothing but the best for this product!

Review Matter?

Reviewers see Matter as a genuinely useful save-for-later tool that makes it easier to collect articles and other content and return to them when convenient. The main praise is simple organization and queuing, which helps people stay focused without losing interesting finds. The biggest complaints are about access and platform support, with one user wanting an Android app and easier direct access. Audio stands out as the clearest weak spot: one reviewer expected to use it heavily but found playback unreliable and speed controls lacking.
