- Select the Read Later option from the list.
The page will be added to the Reading List tab.
- Now, tap on More at the bottom for the options menu.

It will display all the pages added to the reading list. - Tap and hold the page for more Page options.
- Select the View Offline Version in New Tab from the options list.
It will open the reading list page in offline mode.
You won’t need the internet to read the offline page.

If you wish to remove a page from your reading list that you no longer need it. Here are the steps to follow:
- Launch the Google Chrome browser on your iPhone or iPad.

Bottom Line
The reading list or read later is a feature that allows us to continue reading the pending articles or web pages. Unlike bookmarks, the reading list will auto-download the pages for offline access.
Similarly, we can download the web page for offline reading in Chrome on our computer. We can open these pages in the browser and access them without the internet.
