## What is ReadEase?

ReadEase: Easy Reading
A book reader that helps you read classic literature and diverse books clearly and easily.
ReadEase: Easy Reading is an application that helps readers access classic literature and diverse books in the clearest and easiest way. It is more than a simple text archive. It is built to support daily reading, listening, reflection, and steady learning in one quiet reading space.

1. Comfortable reading and fast navigation
Paragraph-based reading layout: Long book passages are organized into clear sections, making them easier to read and understand.

Fast offline search: Find book titles and passages quickly, even without an internet connection.

Smart Data Management: Swipe left on any book card on the home screen to clear its downloaded text and manage storage space. (Your bookmarks and memos remain perfectly safe.)

Lightning-Fast Startup: With the new optimized data loading, the app opens instantly.

Bookmarks and reading progress: Save important passages and continue naturally from where you left off.

2. TTS reading for daily listening
Built-in device TTS: Listen to books using your device's native speech engine.

Real-time highlight and auto-scroll: Follow the current passage visually while listening.

Tap-to-read and smart resume: Tap any paragraph to start reading from that exact point and continue smoothly after a pause.

3. Memos and commentary for deeper study
Independent memo system: Your memos are stored separately from bookmarks, so removing a bookmark does not erase your notes.

CSV backup and restore: Export important memos for personal backup and restore them later when needed.

Paragraph-by-paragraph commentary: Where commentary is available, ReadEase helps readers understand the meaning and context of each passage more deeply.

4. Tablet support and privacy-first design
Split view on larger screens: Read translation and source text together for a more immersive study experience.

Intelligent Typography: Automatically applies the most beautiful premium fonts tailored to your language, with options to customize them in settings.

Offline-centered design: Core data such as bookmarks, memos, reading progress, and preferences stays on your device.

Support for 6 languages: Korean, English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Hong Kong Chinese.
