Scan any text and read it your way. Photograph a document, a book page or a handout: Scandys recognizes the text and reformats it instantly to your reading preferences — spacing, font, size and colors. Save your texts to read them again later. WHY SPACING MATTERS In a controlled study published in PNAS (Zorzi et al., 2012), increasing the space between letters immediately improved reading accuracy in children with dyslexia — with no training. Scandys lets you adjust the spacing between letters, words and lines precisely, so you can find the level that feels comfortable for you. YOUR READING PREFERENCES - Adjustable spacing between letters, words and lines - Text magnification for easier viewing - A wide choice of fonts, including OpenDyslexic (a typeface created for dyslexia that some readers find more comfortable), Helvetica, Andika Basic, Arial, Gill Sans, Optima, Trebuchet MS, Verdana and more - Customizable text and background colors for your visual comfort HOW IT WORKS 1. Take a photo with your iPhone or iPad camera 2. Scandys detects and recognizes the text automatically 3. The text is displayed with your settings — adjust, read, save Scandys is an accessibility tool: it adapts documents to you. It does not diagnose or treat dyslexia. PRICES Scandys requires a subscription (monthly or annual plans). You can try all settings with a limited preview. All plans unlock the app on Mac, iPhone and iPad.

Edeen was created by two friends who met at university and shared a familiar struggle: trying to balance goals, productivity and the demands of dunya while staying connected to Allah and our deen. We often experienced short bursts of motivation like praying more consistently, reading Qur’an or starting a new routine but often we found it difficult to carry those intentions forward and turn them into habits that lasted. That is why we created Edeen. Our mission is to inspire and support people to grow, be productive and strive for excellence in both deen and dunya. Our app’s main focus is to increase consistency in productive habits and to help people to commit to meaningful habits for 40 days. What you can do with Edeen Start a 40-day habit journey Choose a habit that matters to you and build consistency through small daily actions. Whether it is praying on time, reading Qur’an, practising gratitude or waking for Fajr. Track your Salah and Qur’an Keep track of your daily prayers and Qur’an reading, helping you build a more consistent relationship with both. Tick it each day Find the Qiblah Use the Qiblah finder to locate the direction of prayer wherever you are. Reflect through journalling Use your private journal to write, reflect and reconnect with your intentions. Record your thoughts, gratitude, lessons and personal growth along the way. Keep your Duas close Access a collection of duas for everyday moments, including duas for ease, protection, gratitude, knowledge, healing and more. Edeen is for you if you want to: Build habits rooted in faith Become more consistent with Salah and Qur’an Balance deen and dunya with greater intention Create a peaceful routine centred around Allah Journal, reflect and grow personally Take small steps towards a stronger connection with Allah EDeen is not about encouraging perfectionism but being consistent and steadfast - qualities every muslim in the modern day should have to excel.
