## What is Paperturn?

Paperturn is an iPhone and iPad reader that turns your own PDFs, photos and comics like a real book. A page curl lifts each page like paper, and on iPhone Duo, unfolding it gives you a two-page spread.

■ What you can add
- PDF files, from the Files app, iCloud Drive or Downloads
- Several photos. They become one photo book, with date and place captions added automatically
- Comic archives (CBZ, ZIP). If a ComicInfo.xml is inside, the title, reading direction and cover are read from it

■ Read it like a real book
- Page curl turning. Wide spread pages span two faces
- Choose left-to-right or right-to-left per book
- Bookmarks, a page grid, PDF text search, and the App remembers where you left off
- Paper in cream or white

■ On iPhone Duo
- Unfold it for a two-page spread; the fold becomes the spine
- The cover stands alone and the pages come in pairs

■ Library
- Sort books into folders, and pick a grid, list or large-cover view for each folder
- Up to 5 books for free

■ No account, no server
- No sign-up; your books are stored only on this device
- In the free version, ads appear only in the library, never on the reading screen

■ Paperturn Pro
- Pro removes the ad and the book limit. One-time purchase, no subscription, updates included.
