Import your own files, make every page look exactly how you like, and listen hands‑free with built‑in text‑to‑speech. **Read any format** Open EPUB, PDF, TXT, and Markdown files. EPUB embedded fonts are rendered faithfully, so even specially typeset books display correctly.

Includes Korean typefaces. Every book remembers its own look. **Listen, don't just read** Built‑in text‑to‑speech reads your books aloud with natural English and Korean voices. Adjust speed and pitch, follow along with on‑screen highlighting, and set a sleep timer to drift off.
