Biblio.ink vs Actually Read

Your unified library in 3D, your physical books and ebooks live together. Drop in an EPUB or PDF and watch it become a hardcover you can pick up, browse, and read. Biblio turns a folder of files into a library you actually want to visit. Every book stands on a real 3D shelf, spine, cover, and page edges you can reach in and pick up, turn over, and start reading. A pile of downloads becomes a collection you browse the way you browse a bookshelf at home. One library, every kind of book Your ebooks and your physical books live side by side. Scan a barcode, photograph a whole shelf at once, search by title or author, or add a book by hand. However it arrives, it stands on the same shelf. See your collection, your way • Shelf: your whole library on beautiful 3D shelves; pinch to see every book at once • Cascade: flip through your books like flipping through records • Map: Your library on a world map: books pin to the places they're about, and tapping a place fans out its covers.

Actually Read helps you track your books, protect your reading time, and actually read—whether you’re reading an EPUB, a PDF, or a physical book. • Focus on the book you chose. Start a reading session, set a timer, and use Deep Focus to block the apps, categories, and websites you choose with Screen Time. • See your reading add up. Track books and focus sessions, create custom reading lists, review your reading history, and return to a calm, customizable reading space built around your current book. • Read your way. Import EPUBs and PDFs, discover free public-domain books, search within books, save bookmarks, highlight passages, and pick up where you left off. • Ask better questions with grounded AI. Actually Read uses retrieval-based AI to help you engage with a book, not replace it with an AI digest. Ask about a theme, scene, or passage, get a Story So Far recap, or request a chapter summary when you’re ready. • Stay grounded in the text. Actually Read retrieves relevant passages from your book and uses them as context for each answer. Responses prioritize cited supporting passages you can open directly in the reader and can respect your reading progress to help avoid spoilers. • Keep your content close. Book indexing, embeddings, and retrieval happen on-device. On devices with Apple Intelligence enabled, on-device AI can answer questions without sending your questions or book content to the cloud. • Choose Advanced AI when you want it. Only your question and the relevant excerpts retrieved to answer it are sent to the cloud—never the full book. Actually Read is for reading with more attention, more context, and fewer distractions. Some features require compatible hardware, Apple Intelligence, Screen Time permission, or an internet connection. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
