Tiny Reader is a reading app for anyone who finds it hard to focus on a page. Instead of a wall of text, it shows just one to three sentences at a time. There's less to face, so it's easier to begin ā and easier to keep going. It's built for adults getting back into reading, or reading more comfortably than a phone usually allows. WHAT IT DOES - Shows a sentence or two at a time, at a pace you control - Simple navigation ā tap the edges or use the buttons - Bookmark any moment and jump back in a tap - A progress slider to move through a book quickly - Three calm reading themes ā Paper, Sepia, and Night - Adjustable text size PRIVATE BY DESIGN Tiny Reader works entirely on your device. Once a book is imported, the app makes no network calls ā you can read in airplane mode. There are no accounts, no analytics, no tracking, and no ads. Your books, bookmarks, and settings never leave your device. BRING YOUR OWN BOOKS Import your own DRM-free EPUB files. A sample book is included so you can start reading right away. No sign-up. No distractions. Just reading.
