Room to settle in

From a phone to a larger page.

Designed for iPhone and iPad, with layouts that respond to the available screen space. EPUB and CBZ reading modes adapt to the space available, from a single page to eligible two-page layouts.

Your files remain under your control, with local storage and optional iCloud Drive file management. Keep independent backups. Provider access and download settings still apply. iCloud Drive file management does not automatically synchronize your library or reading state.

Free, with optional support

A coffee is a thank-you.

Reading and organizing your own publications are free. If you’d like to support continued development, Buy Us a Coffee offers optional, one-time consumable purchases through Apple. They are not subscriptions and do not add features. Choose only when you want to; the price is shown in the app.
