## What is StoryLens Reader?

StoryLens was built to make reading Chinese books feel easier, more joyful, and a little bit magical —whether you’re fluent, learning, or somewhere in between.

TURN ANY BOOK INTO A READ-ALONG EXPERIENCE
Snap a photo of a page, and StoryLens will extract the Chinese text and add pinyin + English translation. Capture each page once and save the story companion for reference again and again.

TAP-TO-HEAR PRONUNCIATION
Tap any character or word to hear how it’s pronounced—great for building confidence as you read. Or StoryLens can read page-by-page - turning any book into an audiobook with text highlighting so you can follow along. You can select dialects and playback speed to meet your needs.

BUILD YOUR OWN STORY LIBRARY
Save books and revisit them anytime—perfect for rereading favorites. Organize your books into collections. You can even share them with friends/family so auntie can read too! All stories sync across devices.

GREAT FOR
