MagicReader vs Tomelet

Read without touching the screen. MagicReader is a hands-free reader for EPUB, PDF and comics: turn your head, wave a hand, wink, or just say "next page" — and the page turns. Or sit back and let a natural voice read to you. Whether your hands are busy, wet, full, or simply resting — or touching the screen is difficult for you — MagicReader keeps the story going.

It has been rebuilt from the ground up for today's devices — same magic, new tricks. Reading is best when nothing comes between you and the story. Not even your hands.

Read the book the way it was printed. Tomelet starts from what the publisher made — the fonts, spacing and images — and lets you work on top of it. It is a private reader for EPUB, PDF and many more formats, with its own typesetting engine. THE PAGE COMES FIRST • Publisher fonts, styles and images are kept by default. • Change the type size and the text reflows without losing the design. • Bright, sepia, dark and black themes; margins, line spacing, alignment and hyphenation are yours to set. WRITE ON THE PAGE • Highlight, underline, add notes and bookmarks in EPUBs and in PDFs with selectable text. • Draw with Apple Pencil — pressure changes the line — or switch on finger drawing. • Export a book's notes as Markdown or JSON. THE FORMATS YOU OWN EPUB, PDF, MOBI, AZW3, FB2, DjVu, CBZ comics, DOCX, TXT, Markdown and HTML, plus older formats such as CHM, LIT and Palm eReader — all DRM-free. Books locked with DRM are recognised and explained; Tomelet doesn't remove protection. EVERY LANGUAGE ON THE PAGE Right-to-left text such as Arabic and Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese and Korean with ruby annotations, and hyphenation come from one rendering engine. Tomelet itself speaks 28 languages. A LIBRARY THAT TIDIES ITSELF Titles, authors, series and covers come from the file and, unless you turn it off in Settings, from Open Library. Automatic tags, collections and series keep things in order, and search finds books in your library and words inside a book. FREE TO READ. PAY FOR SYNC. The free app is the whole reader, not a trial: every format and reading feature, notes, export and local backup, offline and with no account. It is supported by one ad before a book opens — never while you read, and never on your first day. TOMELET SYNC Tomelet Sync keeps your books, reading positions, highlights, notes and ink in step across your iPhone, iPad and computer, removes ads, and includes 10 GB of encrypted storage. Everything is encrypted on your device before it is uploaded; our servers never hold a key that can read your library. A new device is approved from one you already trust, or with your Recovery Key. Tomelet Sync is an auto-renewable subscription, billed monthly or yearly, with a free trial for eligible new subscribers. Payment is charged to your Apple Account; the subscription renews unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the period, and you can manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings.
