Widget Reader vs Epub Reader for Dyslexia

Widget Reader is a quiet, local-first ebook reader for the books you already own. Import a file, settle into a distraction-free page, or listen with offline Read Aloud. No account, no online bookstore, and no ads. READ FROM YOUR HOME SCREEN Put your current book in a small, medium, or large Home Screen widget. Move to the previous or next passage right from the widget, then open the app whenever you want the full page. Use Synced progress to keep one reading position, or Separate progress for quick reading that never moves your place in the app. BRING YOUR OWN BOOKS Import DRM-free EPUB, TXT, text-based PDF, MOBI/AZW, Markdown, HTML, and FB2 files from your device. Add multiple books at once, keep them in a clean library, and choose a two-column, three-column, or list layout. Rename a book locally and return to the exact place where you stopped. LISTEN, EVEN OFFLINE Turn your ebooks into a personal listening library with system voices installed on your device. Read Aloud highlights the current sentence and follows along automatically. Adjust playback from 0.5x to 2.0x, choose a voice, set a sleep timer, and continue listening in the background with Lock Screen and headphone controls. MAKE EVERY PAGE YOURS • Choose your font and text size• Adjust spacing, margins, indentation, and alignment• Switch between comfortable reading themes• Read by tap, swipe, scroll, or page curl• Save bookmarks, highlights, and notes• Review highlights and notes in one place• Track reading time, days, and progress PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your imported books, reading positions, bookmarks, highlights, notes, and preferences stay on your device by default. Widget Reader does not require an account or upload your library to a cloud service. A few minutes is enough for another passage. Bring the books you love and make room for a little reading today. Notes: Supported ebooks must be DRM-free. PDFs must contain extractable text; scanned PDFs and OCR are not supported. Keep your original files, because local content may not be recoverable after the app is deleted or its data is cleared.

Epub Reader opens the ebooks you already have and makes their text easier to read. It works completely offline. No account, no ads, and no analytics of any kind, so your library stays completely private. READING SUPPORT • Syllable highlighting: every second syllable gets its own colour, so long words break into parts you can see. Currently available for 10 languages. • Line focus: the page dims except for a band around the line you are reading, and you drag that band with your finger. • Easy reading: wider letter, word and line spacing, a warm off-white page instead of stark white, and bold instead of italics. It applies to the whole app, not only to the book text. • Read aloud with read-along highlighting in its own colour, so it is never mistaken for one of your own highlights. • Full typography control: font size, spacing, margins, page transition, light and dark reading themes. FORMATS EPUB, FB2, MOBI, AZW3 and TXT. Non-EPUB files are converted when you import them, so they really open instead of only appearing in the list. YOUR LIBRARY • Import from Files, iCloud Drive or any app that can share a file. • Covers generated for books that have none. • Highlights, notes and bookmarks. • Reading statistics, daily goals and streaks. • Export and backup of your library data. PRIVACY No account. No ads. No tracking. No analytics. The app has no way to send your library anywhere. The interface is available in 65 languages. Syllable highlighting currently covers 10 of them. Word lookup needs a connection and is available on iOS only.
