What Read It Later does
Read It Later is a simple extension for saving the page you're on to a reading list with a single click. Instead of leaving a tab open as a reminder to come back later, you save the link and close the tab, then return to your list whenever you're ready to read.
Read It Later free vs paid
Read It Later is used as a free extension based on the current listing, with the save-and-list feature included. It doesn't describe a separate paid plan, so it functions as a single free tool rather than a tiered product.
Is Read It Later safe?
To save the page you're viewing, the extension needs permission to read the current tab's content and URL. That's the access a save-to-list tool typically needs. Check the exact permissions Chrome shows on the install screen if you want the details for your version.
