EPUB Reader - justRead

PDF, Audiobooks & Read Aloud

Free · In-App Purchases

Keep every book as a plain file you own. Import from Calibre or OPDS, send to Kindle, export highlights to Readwise. EPUB, PDF, comics, and audiobooks in one native iOS reader. Fast, deeply customizable, and built to disappear so you can simply read. FOUR FORMATS, ONE SHELF Read EPUB 3 and PDF. Read CBZ and CBR comics and manga, with two-page spreads, double-tap zoom, and a reading direction you set per book. Listen to audiobooks with chapters, sleep timer, and Car Mode. Or follow along with EPUB 3 narration, where the text highlights in time with the voice. One library, one set of stats, everything you read in one place. READ ALOUD Any book can be read to you, by any Apple voice on your device or by natural English voices you download once and then run offline. The sentence highlights as it is spoken and the pages turn on their own, with speed presets, sentence skips, a sleep timer, and Lock Screen controls. Prepare a book in advance and keep listening with the screen off. TYPOGRAPHY YOU CONTROL 200+ fonts, or import your own. Tune size, weight, line and paragraph spacing, alignment, hyphenation, and separate margins for portrait and landscape. Save settings per book so a novel, a textbook, and poetry each look right. Build your own color themes and let them switch at sunset. Choose where a tap opens the toolbar, and give links their own color in every theme. Smart dark mode keeps images natural, and in-reader brightness, Line Focus, and eye-care break reminders protect your eyes. NO LOCK-IN, EVER Your books stay ordinary files in an ordinary folder, never a proprietary database. Point justRead at any folder: on device, iCloud Drive, or one your cloud app syncs through Files. Import from a Calibre server or any OPDS catalog, and browse thousands of Calibre titles with sorting and filters. Email a book to your Kindle or PocketBook. Leave for another app whenever you like, nothing is trapped. A LIBRARY THAT SCALES Thousands of books with no lag, and a book opens in about a second. Instant search by title, author, or series. Automatic metadata and series detection, 11 sort modes, saved filters, collections, and tags. Edit any book's details by hand, description included. Spotlight opens any book from your home screen. HIGHLIGHTS, NOTES, BOOKMARKS Highlight, underline, and attach a note. Browse every highlight across your whole library in one place, share a quote as a card, or export to Markdown, PDF, or Readwise. Give bookmarks real titles so you can find them again. YOUR READING, IN NUMBERS Daily goals, a yearly books goal, streaks, and milestone badges. An hourly heatmap shows when you read best. Monthly and yearly recaps, plus a story-style Reading Wrap that turns your year into cards worth sharing. AND THE REST Home screen and lock screen widgets. Dictionary and translation. Full-text search and a nested table of contents. iCloud sync, so you resume on the exact line on any device. Right-to-left and Japanese vertical text. A page curl, if you want one.

■ New features - Toolbar Tap Area. Choose where a tap opens the toolbar in books, comics and PDFs, and drag the area to the size you like. It can also be outlined on the page while the toolbar is open. - Faster Calibre browsing. Your Calibre library opens right away, even with thousands of books, and you can sort, filter and see series and tags. - Line Focus. Step the guide by half a screen with a tap, and come back to the exact line you left. - Link Color. Pick your own link color for each color preset. - Book descriptions. Edit a book's description right in Edit Book. - New Help topics on supported formats, deleting books and the subscription, with search and a way to reach support. ■ Improvements - Books open much faster. A large EPUB went from about 8 seconds to under one. - Whole rows in the reader lists are tappable, not only the text. - Buttons look and work the same everywhere, and they follow larger text sizes. - Reading speed ignores the page jumps that come from syncing, so the number matches how you really read. - Closing the Calibre book list no longer goes through your library when nothing was downloaded. - Preparing a book for Read Aloud keeps running when you lock the screen or leave the app, on iOS 26. ■ Fixes - Fixed a crash a few seconds after launch while Read Aloud was preparing a book. - Fixed the app staying in landscape after you closed a book. - Fixed losing your place when you closed a book and opened it again right away. - Fixed the close and rotate buttons ignoring the first tap in landscape. - Fixed a swipe at the top of the page jumping a whole chapter. - Fixed Cantonese books offering only Mandarin voices for Read Aloud. - Fixed Calibre problems: duplicate books, a server error read as an empty library, and books without a date. - Fixed the reader toolbar on small screens. It now fits on an iPhone SE and in a slim window on iPad, and it no longer covers the reading bar at the bottom of the page. - Fixed the pages left, the chapter name and the bookmark titles in books that split one chapter across several files. - Fixed the table of contents numbering only the parts, not the chapters inside them. ■ Accessibility - Bigger tap targets in the reader lists and on the close and rotate buttons. - Buttons keep their shape at accessibility text sizes. ■ Localization - All the new text is natively translated across all 17 supported languages.
