BoostLectura is a reader for the PDFs and EPUBs you already have. Import a file and start reading in seconds. Everything you get out of the book — the highlights, the notes, the answers to the questions you'd normally skip past — stays with the book. FEATURES • Read PDFs and EPUBs in a reader that stays out of the way. • Ask about anything in the book you're reading. The answers come from the book itself, not from the internet. • Highlight a passage, write a note next to it, and find both later. • Pick your own background and text colors. Paper white at noon, dark at 1am. • Sync your library, reading progress, highlights and notes across your iPhone, iPad and Mac. • Your books live on your device. No connection needed to open one. • Keep a widget on the Home Screen with whatever you're reading now. Made for people just getting into reading, and for seasoned readers too.
