Wen Reader

Chinese EPUB Reader

Free · Designed for iPad

Built out of a genuine love for learning Chinese, Wen Reader gives intermediate readers a clean, modern way to read native-level books while getting quick CEDICT definitions with a simple long-press. Import your own EPUBs, read with great typography, and stay fully offline. Features: - EPUB Import & Smooth Reading: open standard EPUB files from Files, with fast pagination powered by Readium and adjustable margins, fonts, and line spacing. - Instant Dictionary Pop-Ups: long-press any Chinese text to see an inline definition panel using offline CC-CEDICT data and automatic multi-character word segmentation. - Context & Sharing Tools: quickly copy the selected word, sentence, or paragraph, or send text to Pleco or ChatGPT (when installed) for deeper explanation. - Simple, Focused Navigation: tap the book title to browse the table of contents, and Wen Reader automatically saves your reading position as you go. Who is Wen Reader For? - Readers who can understand native Chinese text with some effort. - Learners who want a modern, clean EPUB reading experience without distractions. - Users who benefit from quick dictionary support but do not need the full ecosystem of flashcards, handwriting input, OCR, etc. Privacy - No analytics, no tracking, and no personal data collection. - Everything stays on your device. Open Source & Licenses - Wen Reader uses open dictionary and library components. - Full license information is available inside the app under About → Licenses.
