Features

Built for one quiet read at a time

Every feature is shaped around "your books, listened to or read by you". No streaks, no badges, no nudges.

Bedtime listening with system voices

Listen with Apple's built-in voices. Sleep timer with fade-out, AirPods double-tap ±15s skip, reading-position stays in sync.

Soundscapes for drifting off

Layer rain, fireplace, ocean, forest, and nature ambience under the narration — a soft companion as you fall asleep.

Read 5 local formats

Native support for EPUB, PDF, TXT, MOBI, AZW3 — DRM-free files only. Imports from Files, iCloud Drive, or Safari.

PDF

Smart PDF filtering

Heuristics filter out page numbers, footnotes, and running headers so listening doesn't get interrupted.

Bookmarks · auto-resume · outline

Quit any time, resume exactly where you left off. Bookmark anywhere, jump via chapter outline.

Private by design

No sign-up, no server, no third-party tracking SDKs.
