## What is Violire?

Violire is a focused EPUB and PDF reading app for people who want a calmer, smarter way to read on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and widgets.
Read your own EPUB and PDF books with a native, responsive reading experience built for comfort. Adjust themes, accent colors, typography, and reading settings so every book feels easy on your eyes.

Capture what matters while you read. Select text to create highlights, add notes, keep bookmarks, search inside a book, browse the table of contents, and export annotations as Markdown when you want to keep your ideas elsewhere.

Organize your library with custom shelves, then see books from your selected shelf in a configurable Home Screen widget. Use RSVP speed reading to focus on one word at a time, listen with read-aloud controls, and track progress across reading sessions.

Violire also helps you build a lasting habit with goals, streaks, weekly charts, activity heatmaps, reading achievements, vocabulary flashcards, Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, and Apple Watch companions for quick reading stats.

Optional AI features can help summarize chapters, explain or translate selected passages, build character graphs, and create study cards when you provide your own compatible AI key.
