Book Garden Duo vs Actually Read

Designed for iPhone Duo. Open it like a book: the page on one side, the story's world on the other. Book Garden Duo launches with 26 world-class classics, including Peter Pan, Treasure Island, The Count of Monte Cristo, Dracula and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Read, listen, and discover a world beside every page. DESIGNED FOR IPHONE DUO • Open: the page and its world side by side, either side of the fold. • Folded on your nightstand: a quiet bedside clock that reads you to sleep. • Closed: keep reading on the outer display. Every pose and orientation is supported. Book Garden Duo also works beautifully on iPhone and iPad. READ WITH A CAST OF VOICES Listen to character narration while the passage being read lights up on the page. The books use AI-generated narration with distinct voices for characters. Choose your listening pace, or settle into two-page reading. A WORLD BESIDE THE PAGE Discover the people you have met, follow the journey, and turn objects from the story in 3D. Your companion follows how far you have read, helping you explore without jumping ahead. FEEL THE STORY'S MOOD Atmosphere is on from the first page: the painting, the light, rain, a distant storm and the sounds of the book follow the story, a little quieter while it is read aloud. Turn any part of it off in Settings. RETURN TO THE STORY An automatic recap welcomes you back after a break. Revisit where you left off, catch up with the story so far, and read on. LET A STORY READ YOU TO SLEEP Fold iPhone Duo on your nightstand, or set any iPhone or iPad beside the bed. Choose candlelight or another mood, set when the reading should stop, and let the voice ease into the night. Make the page your own with reading and listening settings, and download books and narration to keep them with you. A world beside every page.

Actually Read helps you track your books, protect your reading time, and actually read—whether you’re reading an EPUB, a PDF, or a physical book. • Focus on the book you chose. Start a reading session, set a timer, and use Deep Focus to block the apps, categories, and websites you choose with Screen Time. • See your reading add up. Track books and focus sessions, create custom reading lists, review your reading history, and return to a calm, customizable reading space built around your current book. • Read your way. Import EPUBs and PDFs, discover free public-domain books, search within books, save bookmarks, highlight passages, and pick up where you left off. • Ask better questions with grounded AI. Actually Read uses retrieval-based AI to help you engage with a book, not replace it with an AI digest. Ask about a theme, scene, or passage, get a Story So Far recap, or request a chapter summary when you’re ready. • Stay grounded in the text. Actually Read retrieves relevant passages from your book and uses them as context for each answer. Responses prioritize cited supporting passages you can open directly in the reader and can respect your reading progress to help avoid spoilers. • Keep your content close. Book indexing, embeddings, and retrieval happen on-device. On devices with Apple Intelligence enabled, on-device AI can answer questions without sending your questions or book content to the cloud. • Choose Advanced AI when you want it. Only your question and the relevant excerpts retrieved to answer it are sent to the cloud—never the full book. Actually Read is for reading with more attention, more context, and fewer distractions. Some features require compatible hardware, Apple Intelligence, Screen Time permission, or an internet connection. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
