How to synchronize Pocket on Kindle articles

After the dutiful way, let’s get back to the point: how to post articles saved to Pocket to your Kindle? The process is quite simple, thanks to an excellent service called P2K .

P2K is precisely Pocket2Kindle : is a service that allows you to easily synchronize items stored on your ebook reader, periodically or with a single submission.

the first thing to do is go on the official website of P2K, click on the big button Start Here! and make log in with your Pocket account. At this point, the site may ask you to enter your personal email address: in the case, do it without any problems.

After you log in, you will have to choose whether to use the Standard plan or the premium: this course ‘ last has a large number of benefits, including the ‘ send instant of the articles (with Standard instead you’ll have to wait) the ability to select individual items to send (alternatively , you’ll have to settle for sending the last saved or random articles). Make your choice, keeping in mind that the premium membership costs $ 3 per month and, if necessary, you can switch to a premium even at a later time.

Differences between the Standard plan the plan premium

Once you have selected the plan, you will have to start planning the mailings: create and click the button Create Delivery to configure the synchronization of items with Kindle.

in the left column you can select the frequency of sending:

• daily Pocket send the articles to the Kindle every day (you can select the send time)
• Weekly Pocket send the articles to the Kindle every week (you can select the day and time of ‘ sending)
• one time send the articles to the Kindle Pocket only once

On the right, however, you can select which and how many items you want to send, choose from:

• more new items (a number between 1 and 20)
• the older items (a number between 1 and 20)
• some articles that can read so many minutes (between 15 and 120 minutes)
• random items (a number between 1 and 20)

Finally, the bottom slider enables you to store articles sent to your Kindle.

of course, there is a better choice than the others and depends a lot on how you use your Pocket and how often you want to read on the Kindle items: personally I use a lot Pocket but do not have much time to read during the week and I do feasting on weekends and in the evenings, so I chose to send me to send the latest 20 articles every Friday morning.

Another solution may be to send for a few articles at random each day and store them (so that the same will not occur) or choose the items to be sent depending on how long you want to go to read. In any case, keep in mind that with the Standard plan can take up to several hours before the items are sent, so it is best to program periodic mailings from one hoping to read something immediately using the One Time .

at this point, clicking on Start Delivery , you see a screen that shows you the next steps needed to P2K can deliver the articles on your Kindle. These are summarized below:

1. Open the page E content and Amazon

from the tab settings scroll down until you find E-mail List approved personal documents click Add a new e-mail address approved and add the address delivery@p2k.co

2. Still in the tab settings look for the E-mail settings target Kindle , copy the email associated with the Kindle, where you want to post articles and paste it in the item your Kindle delivery email address P2K
   
3. Click Start Delivering Now to schedule mailings.

All done! Now your articles saved to Pocket will be synchronized regularly on the Kindle and remember that you can change by sending tab Manage and control the sending of articles from the tab Status .

Enjoy!
