Leafmark is a calm, fast EPUB reader for people who read closely and take their notes with them.
Buy it once. No subscription, no account, no cloud lock-in. Your library is plain EPUB files on your device, and your highlights are yours to export any time.
READ THE WAY YOU LIKE
• Reflowable EPUB rendering with light, sepia and dark themes
• Vertical Japanese text (tategaki) renders as the book declares it
• Adjustable font, size, line height and margins
• One or two columns, plus a scrolling mode — great on iPad in landscape
• Full-text search, table of contents and a built-in dictionary lookup
• Your reading position is remembered per book
ANNOTATE AND KEEP YOUR NOTES
• Highlight in four colors and attach notes
• Export every highlight and note to Markdown — drop them straight into Obsidian, Notion or any plain-text vault

• No tracking and no analytics
• Everything stays on your device
LEAFMARK PRO
Reading is always free. Import your library, render any book and try the feel before you decide. You also get one free Markdown export, so you can see exactly what lands in your notes before paying. A single one-time purchase, Leafmark Pro, unlocks the full annotation workflow: unlimited highlights (the free tier keeps up to three per book), unlimited Markdown export, and reading statistics. Restore your purchase any time.
GOOD TO KNOW
• Import EPUBs straight from Files — iCloud Drive, Google Drive, Dropbox, or right off your device.
• Works with DRM-free EPUB files. DRM-protected books and PDF are not supported.
• Public-domain EPUBs are available from Public Domain Library and Standard Ebooks.
Easy to use with most necessary options for a non-DRM reader. The developer has resolved a bug mentioned in my previous review and responds to requests by his app users. This is a nice, easy to use reader at a very fair one-time fee.
Developer Response
Thank you for the detail — "the text gradually shifts until you are seeing portions of two pages" is precisely what I needed, and it let me find the cause.I had set a gap between the text columns. The page turn scrolls by exactly one screen width, but the columns are laid out one gap wider than that, so every turn left the text a little further along than the scroll went, and it accumulated until two pages shared the screen. It reset at each new chapter, which is why it came and went.An earlier update fixed a different version of this and clearly did not fix yours. The gap is now gone and I measured the text block staying put across page turns. The build is on its way to review.If anything still splits after that update, I would be glad to hear it.
This release updates Leafmark's App Store presentation. Reading, highlighting, Markdown export, and Leafmark Pro work as before.
