Is Pocket down, or is it just you?
Multiple independent check rounds from rimetry's monitoring infrastructure, run seconds apart.
Our checks reached Pocket successfully in every round of the last check cycle.
| Check round | Last check | Success rate (24h) | Avg response |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Reachable | 100% | 640 ms |
| Round 2 | Reachable | 100% | 618 ms |
| Round 3 | Reachable | 100% | 564 ms |
| Round 4 | Reachable | 100% | 588 ms |
Based on 364 automated checks in the last 24 hours. Each round is an independent pass over the same endpoint, seconds apart — a single failing round is not an outage; repeated failures across rounds are.

About Pocket
Pocket is a content curation tool used to save articles, videos, and web pages for viewing later across multiple devices. Users interact with the service through browser extensions and mobile apps to synchronize their reading lists and access a simplified viewing mode. Common points of failure include synchronization errors between the mobile app and the cloud, broken article parsing, and login timeouts. If the API is down, new items will not save to the user's account and the offline reading feature may fail to update. Rimetry monitors the reachability of Pocket's synchronization servers and web interface to detect any ongoing performance degradations or total downtime.
Problems with Pocket can affect website, article pages, subscription & paywall independently.
Pocket (getpocket.com) is a news & reading service monitored continuously by rimetry's automated checks. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds in repeated independent rounds to detect outages and latency spikes the moment they happen.
Right now Pocket is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 385 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to getpocket.com are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like Pocket include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.
