Fable Reader lets you experience picture made with Fable Designer interactively on your iPad or iPhone. Pages turn with a real page-turn: the leaf curls, catches the light and falls, and it can be dragged with a finger rather than only tapped. Every book can also read itself aloud, with each word lit as it is spoken, so that anyone learning to read can follow along. Once a book has been added to the shelf, the pages and the narration are stored on the device. It reads with no connection at all — on a plane, in a car, anywhere. Fable Reader is a companion to a Fable Designer account, and books are made at fabledesigner.com rather than in this app. An adult signs in there, chooses which books go on the shelf, and pairs the device once with a code. After that the shelf keeps itself up to date. Fable Reader contains no advertising and nothing to purchase. Accounts belong to adults, who decide what is created and what is placed on the shelf.
