Read hard books with ease
Only for iPhone

iPhone
Hard books aren’t hard because of you. They’re hard because nobody tells you what to pay attention to. Forma does, so you can finally reach the last page.
Enjoy the books you thought were too hard.
It's easy to give up on difficult books. The pages are dense, everything seems important, and after a week away, picking up where you left off can feel like starting from scratch.
Forma is like reading a book with notes from a friend who has already read it. It gives you small hints and explanations that help you better understand the ideas.
SHORT SESSIONS, NOT WALLS OF TEXT
Long chapters are broken down into short sections you can read in just a few minutes, so you always know how much is left. Breaking content into smaller parts makes complex ideas easier to understand and remember.
DISCOVER WHAT MATTERS
Forma marks each section as essential or optional, so you can focus on what matters most. Experienced readers know how to distinguish the essentials from the details.
SPARK YOUR CURIOSITY IN EVERY CHAPTER
Each chapter starts with an introduction that gives you a sense of what's ahead without revealing too much. Curiosity about what comes next encourages you to keep reading and helps you remember what you read.
PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF
Each chapter ends with a short summary. Coming back after a week? Read it to refresh your memory and get back into the book more easily.
KEEP YOUR BOOK IN SIGHT
Forma's widget keeps the book you're reading on your home screen, just one tap away. It's easier to return to a book when it's right in front of you.
READING IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE?
Reading in another language takes extra effort. With shorter sections, notes, and plain-language explanations, you can follow the thread of the text, even when you come across unfamiliar words.
FIVE FREE CLASSICS, READY TO READ
Start with Moby-Dick, Frankenstein, A Tale of Two Cities, Walden, and On the Origin of Species. All five are waiting for you in your library.
ADD YOUR OWN BOOKS
Import your own EPUB files and read as many books as you want with Forma.
YOUR BOOKS, YOUR PRIVACY
The books you import stay on your phone. To prepare a book, its text is sent to our server for analysis and deleted afterward. Your books are never used to train AI models or show ads.
