PlotPal vs Same Page

Read together. Live. Focus on text with spotlight mode. Good for reading with ADHD. Blur out the words not being read or not in focus. PlotPal turns any article, PDF, epub, or book into a live reading room. Invite friends, read in real time, and see each other's highlights as they happen — with voice chat and AI commentary that makes every session feel like the book club you always meant to start. READING ROOMS & LIVE CO-READING • Create a room for any PDF, article, or book • Read together with friends in real time • Voice chat while you read — book club without the scheduling • See each other's highlights and spotlight live • Join public reading groups around any topic SpotLight — built for restless minds Most reading apps give you text. FocusReader gives you a spotlight. As you read, a gentle glow tracks your gaze and dims the rest of the page — keeping your eyes and attention anchored to exactly one line. When your mind starts to wander, the light pulls it back before you even notice. Designed for people with ADHD, anxiety, or anyone who finds their eyes jumping ahead, re-reading the same paragraph, or losing their place entirely. The spotlight removes the visual noise that triggers distraction, so you actually finish what you start. No highlighters. No timers. No shame. Just you and the line you're on.
