## What is Vellora Archive?

Vellora is your living library for the files you already own. Bring in documents, articles, and audio, then read, listen, and keep what mattered in one calm place.

Listen offline. Follow along while audio plays. Move through chapters. The original source stays with each item, so it is there when you return.

Use Vellora for long reads, personal audiobooks, research, study material, and the pieces you do not want to lose in a sea of tabs.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Bring files, articles, text, and audio into one library.
• Turn readable documents into saved audio with voices on your device.
• Listen offline and follow along with available text.
• Move through chapters and continue where you left off.
• Keep the original source close at hand.
• Create or choose artwork that makes the library feel like your own.

No account. No store. No subscription. Your library stays on your device or in your own iCloud Drive.


## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-08-19

Hand a book to a friend.

- Send to a Vellora person: share a book as one file with the audio, text, chapters, and cover all together. They tap it, Vellora opens, and it is ready to play.
- Share right from the Library: touch and hold any book to send it. No need to open it first.
- Your notes stay yours: shared books never include your notes, quotes, bookmarks, or reading spot.
- Scan a document: point the camera at paper and it becomes a book you can read and listen to. Vellora reads the pages right on your device.

Also in this update: smarter PDF imports, gentle haptics throughout the app, an import progress indicator, clearer sharing errors, and books stored in iCloud download automatically before sending.
