## What is JoyRead?

JoyRead is an inline reading assistant that helps you understand English without leaving the text.

When a sentence feels hard, tap it once to add short English notes beside difficult words. Tap again to rewrite the full sentence in simpler, more direct English. The help appears exactly where you are reading, so your attention stays with the book or webpage.

READ IN THE APP
• Import EPUB, PDF, Markdown, and TXT
• Save articles from a URL or the Share menu
• Transfer books from a computer over Wi‑Fi
• Explore curated public-domain English sample books from A2 to C1
• Use chapters, bookmarks, highlights, notes, scroll or page modes, and reading progress
• Keep your library and reading data synced across Apple devices

READ IN SAFARI
Turn on the JoyRead Safari extension and tap an English sentence on the page you are browsing. Notes or a simpler rewrite appear in place—no copying, popups, or side panels.

REVIEW WHAT YOU LEARN
• Revisit sentences you simplified
• Use Explain for a whole-sentence explanation at your reading level
• Weave saved language into new AI-generated English stories
• Track reading time, streaks, and learning progress

MADE FOR YOUR LEVEL
Choose an A1–C2 reading level or take a reading self-check. JoyRead can also estimate the vocabulary and sentence complexity of imported books, so you know what to expect before you start.

JoyRead explains English in English. It is not a translation app or a traditional dictionary.

Free features include importing and reading, sample books, bookmarks, highlights, notes, and progress. JoyRead Premium unlocks AI Notes and Simple rewrites for your own content and Safari webpages, plus Explain and AI stories. Subscriptions are managed through your Apple Account and can be canceled at any time in Settings.
