* Yomite is not affiliated with or endorsed by any third-party platform, publisher or author. Please respect each site's terms of service and only import content you have the right to read. Yomite is a privacy-first reader that turns novels, ebooks, comics and web pages into read-aloud audio — in your own language, or someone else's. Version 2.0 is a complete reading platform: import a book once, and read it, listen to it, or use it to learn a new language. What's new in 2.0 - A full book reader: EPUB, PDF, MOBI, FB2, RTF and comics/manga (CBZ), alongside plain-text novels and web-novel imports - 315+ Japanese voices, plus dedicated on-device AI voices in English, Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese — and Apple's built-in system voices for dozens more languages on top - Learning Mode: shadow along with A-B loop and slow playback, tap any word for an instant lookup, and read with live on-device translation — including translating comic/manga panels in place - Web Reader: paste a URL and Yomite reads the page aloud, no import step needed - A true vertical-script (tategaki) reader with full ruby/furigana support - Year in Review: a personal listening-and-reading recap What it is - One-tap import from EPUB, PDF, MOBI, FB2, RTF, CBZ/manga, web novels and web articles - On-device inference for reading your book content — no uploads of your library - A free tier that's genuinely usable, with an optional Premium tier for unlimited listening Key features - Cast mode: assign distinct voices to the narrator and each character - Vertical reader (tategaki) with full ruby and emphasis-dot support - Sleep timer with end-of-chapter mode so playback never cuts mid-sentence - Per-novel pronunciation dictionary to fix proper-noun misreadings forever - Automatic ruby capture — annotations like 黒猫《くろねこ》 are learned on the fly - Bookmarks with notes, full-text search and a Year-in-Review dashboard - Lock-screen controls, Live Activity, Home-screen widgets and App Intents - Works with popular web novel sites and general web articles - iCloud sync for your library, bookmarks, dictionaries and reading position - Share extension to send text from any app straight into your library - Sound effects (page turn, end-of-reading chime) — toggle on or off Pricing The free tier includes up to 20 minutes of listening per day. All current on-device and Apple system voices are, and always will be, free to use. Premium removes the daily listening limit and unlocks the full feature set — choose a one-time Lifetime purchase, or a Yearly or Monthly subscription, whichever suits you. Subscriptions auto-renew and can be cancelled anytime in Settings. Any future cloud-based voice models may be priced separately from Premium. See the App Store for current pricing in your region. Privacy and safety Your book contents, bookmarks and dictionaries stay on your device. We ship no telemetry and no analytics SDKs. The optional Web Reader is gated to ages 13+ and hidden by default; any imported page can be reported for review. Full policy: yomite.app/privacy.

READ AND UNDERSTAND Look up words in context and ask AI to explain sentences, expressions and passages. Set your native language and level for explanations that fit you. Read books and articles side by side with a translation, or the translation only. Ask about a book, quoting several passages, images or part of a PDF page, follow answers back to the text, or get an AI summary of the book or what you've read so far. LISTEN AND FOLLOW ALONG Narration runs on your device after you download a voice pack. Follow the highlighted text, change voices, turn on translated subtitles, and switch between the reader and player without losing your place. PDFs with selectable text can be narrated too.
