Built for finishing the book.

A reader that gets out of the way of the writing.

I

A Library Already on Your Phone

Pride and Prejudice, Moby-Dick, Jane Eyre, Dracula, Crime and Punishment, Anna Karenina, The Count of Monte Cristo and eighteen more. Sort the shelf by title, by author, or by the year each book was published, from Homer to Fitzgerald.

II

One Word, One Pivot Letter

Each word appears in the same spot with one letter picked out in colour. Your eye settles on that letter instead of travelling along a line and back, so you read quicker without losing the thread.

III

Every Chapter, Timed at Your Pace

Every book opens to its full chapter list, with the words and minutes each chapter takes at your speed. Your place is kept in every book, so a long novel fits into short sittings.

IV

See What You Read

Finish a chapter and you see how many words you read, how long it took and how fast you went, with the next chapter one tap away.

V

Set the Pace, Follow the Sentence

Read anywhere from 100 to 1,200 words a minute. SmartFlow holds a word a little longer at commas, full stops and paragraph breaks, so the rhythm follows the sentence.

VI

Your Colour, Your Typeface

Choose the pivot colour and a mono, system, serif or rounded typeface, then pinch to size the word. The books are complete texts stored on the device, so they read offline.
