BookNest: Read & Listen

Every book in BookNest is out of copyright — the classics, unabridged, downloaded to your device and yours to keep. Browse tens of thousands of ebooks and audiobooks from Standard Ebooks, Project Gutenberg, and LibriVox. Read a chapter on your iPhone, keep going on your iPad, and finish it on your Apple Watch with your headphones and no phone in your pocket. READ BEAUTIFULLY • A fast, distraction-free EPUB reader with page or scroll layout • Choose your typeface, size, spacing, margins and theme — light, sepia or dark — plus a dyslexia-friendly font • Full-text search inside any book • Bookmarks and highlights, collected in one place so you can find that passage again • Read aloud with natural system voices, at the speed and pitch you like LISTEN ANYWHERE • A complete audiobook player with chapters, adjustable speed, skip controls and a sleep timer • A mini-player that follows you around the app so you never lose the thread • Lock Screen and Dynamic Island controls, Bluetooth and headphone controls ONE BOOK, TWO FORMATS Many classics exist as both an ebook and an audiobook. BookNest pairs them automatically, so you can read on the train and listen on the walk home — your place carries across.

No sign-up. No ads. No tracking. Your library lives on your device and in your own iCloud, and you can export your data whenever you want. BookNest is built entirely in SwiftUI for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. Books are sourced from Standard Ebooks, Project Gutenberg and LibriVox, whose volunteers have spent decades making the public domain readable. BookNest is not affiliated with those projects.
