About

Skim or Dive is an ebook reader built around one simple idea: you decide how deep you go — so you finish more of the books you start. Not every book earns 400 pages of your time. When a story drags, or you have less time than it needs, ease the detail down and skim to the end instead of abandoning it. When a story grabs you, dive into every word. Same book, your pacing — and far fewer half-read books on the shelf. A single slider — from skim to dive — reshapes any book in real time. Pull it up to glide across a chapter as a short summary. Push it down to sink into the full, unabridged prose. Every level in between gives you more or less detail, so you can race through a slow stretch and savour the part you love, all without ever leaving the page. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Finish more books — when a book isn't working, bail gracefully to a quick skim instead of adding it to the did-not-finish pile. • Variable detail slider (1–5) — read every section at the depth you want, from a one-line skim to the complete text. • One More Chapter — reached the end and not ready to let go? Generate a brand-new continuation in the tone you choose: exciting, silly, mundane, mind-bending, or a whole new genre. • Ask the book — curious about a character, a plot thread, or what a passage meant? Get instant answers right in the reader, carefully limited to what you've read so far. No spoilers, ever. • Tap to define — long-press any word to see its dictionary definition right in the page, without losing your place. • Bring your own books — import your EPUB and TXT files and read them your way. • A reader that stays out of your way — adjustable font size, light and dark themes, and reading progress that's always saved. • Bookmarks — mark the moments worth coming back to. YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR PRIVACY Your books and your account are yours. There are no ads and no trackers. You can delete your account — and the data tied to it — at any time, right from the app. Read our privacy policy at https://skimordive.com/privacy. Whether you're catching the gist on a busy commute or diving deep on a lazy Sunday, Skim or Dive lets you read at your own pace, at your own depth — and actually reach the end.

What's New in Skim or Dive

1.0.8

August 6, 2026

Reading comfort settings — shape the page around how you actually read. • Five reading themes: Light, Sepia, Dim, Dark and High contrast. Choose one for daylight and a separate one for night, and the light/dark switch moves between exactly those two. • Typeface: read in a classic serif or your device's standard sans. • Text size, line spacing, letter spacing and paragraph spacing, each adjustable on its own — open the text up until it sits comfortably. • A live sample paragraph updates as you adjust, so you can see the result before returning to your book. • Reset to defaults whenever you want to start over. Two ways in: tap "Aa" in the reader's top bar, or go to Profile → Reading settings.
