Bionic Reading® Fonts is the upgrade for your eyes – as a real font, installed directly on your iPhone and iPad. The patented Bionic Reading® method visually emphasizes words, so your eyes find orientation faster. Once installed, use it in any app that offers its own font picker. ONE SUBSCRIPTION, ALL YOUR DEVICES. Your subscription is tied to your Apple ID, not to a single device. Once subscribed, install the Bionic Reading® Fonts on iPhone and iPad – at no extra cost. THREE PACKAGES. • Bionic Reading®: Sans Serif, Fixation 1–5, 10 styles • Bionic Reading® Serif: Serif, Fixation 1–5, 10 styles • Bionic Reading® Bundle: Both families, Fixation 1–5, 20 styles WHERE THE BIONIC READING® FONTS WORK. Once installed, your Bionic Reading® Fonts appear system-wide under Settings→ General→ Fonts→ My Fonts. You can use them in any app that offers its own font picker. On iPhone and iPad: • Apple Pages, Keynote, Numbers • GoodNotes • Procreate (on iPhone: Procreate Pocket) • and many more. Additionally on iPad: • Affinity Designer, Photo, Publisher • Final Cut Pro for iPad • and many more. Whether an app supports custom fonts is always up to that app. WHERE THE BIONIC READING® FONTS DON’T WORK. Apple doesn’t allow custom fonts everywhere. They definitely don’t work in: the system interface (Home Screen, Settings), Apple Notes, Messages/iMessage, Safari, Apple Books, or virtually all social media and messenger apps such as Instagram, TikTok, or WhatsApp – these apps always use their own, fixed fonts. Currently, they also don’t work in Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, since these apps don’t support custom fonts – on iPhone and iPad alike. WHO IS THE APP FOR? For everyone who reads and writes a lot – on iPhone as well as iPad. For school, university, work, and creative projects in apps like Pages, GoodNotes, or Procreate. Many people with ADHD, dyslexia, or other reading difficulties report that Bionic Reading® helps them grasp and understand content faster. Bionic Reading® is not a medical product and does not replace diagnosis or therapy. But for many people, it can be a real “Game Changer” in everyday life. MORE POSSIBILITIES ON MAC. On the Mac, Bionic Reading® opens up even more possibilities – as a classic desktop font, usable in virtually any program. The Bionic Reading® Fonts for Mac are a separate product, available directly at bionic-reading.com. ALSO FOR CHAT AND SOCIAL MEDIA APPS. If you’d like to use Bionic Reading® in chat and social media apps specifically, we recommend our app “Bionic Reading® Font Keyboard” (available separately on the App Store) – it works on a different principle and writes Bionic Reading® directly in virtually any typing app. A FAIR SUBSCRIPTION FOR ALL FEATURES. With your subscription, you get full access to install the Bionic Reading® Fonts included in your chosen package. Subscriptions are billed monthly or annually at the selected rate. You’re supporting not just an app, but the idea of making reading easier, more beautiful, and more accessible. Terms of Use: https://bionic-reading.com/bionic-reading-font-software-license-agreement/ TYPOGRAPHY. DESIGN. SWITZERLAND. Bionic Reading® comes from Switzerland. With over 30 years of typography experience, we know that small details make a big difference: how a word looks, where the eye stops, and how quickly text is understood. That is exactly why Bionic Reading® was developed. INTERNATIONAL AWARDS FOR BIONIC READING®. Bionic Reading® is a patented method and has received international awards. • German Innovation Award 2023: Gold (highest distinction) • German Design Award 2023: Gold (highest distinction) The one and only from Switzerland is a “Life Changer” for Lisa, a “Game Changer” for Tommy and “Absolutely Mind Blowing” for Kelly.
