Velo is the best way to read on iOS and Mac. IT READS LIKE THE BOOK Bring any EPUB, PDF, or text file you own — import from Files or share it in from any app. Velo renders the publisher's typography, figures, and footnotes, with a real table of contents. Choose the book's own font or your own, set the size, spacing, and brightness. PDFs become real, reflowing books: chapters detected, footnotes linked, running headers stripped, two-column academic layouts resequenced, scanned pages OCR'd on your device. BUILT FOR THE HARDWARE YOU OWN Native on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with gestures, haptics, and Live Activities on the Lock Screen. Three reading modes share one word-level position and switch in under 100 ms, so it feels like one surface. Everything works offline. Standard books are processed on your device and never leave it. FOCUS MODE — THE FEATURE NOTHING ELSE HAS One word at a time on a fixed focal point, so attention has nowhere to slide. Timing adapts to punctuation and complexity, from 50 to 1,000 words per minute. Turn it down to lock in on a dense chapter, up when the prose is easy. Focus Mode can even match the book's own typeface. Reader Mode is the full page, in real typography, with highlights and notes. Scrub is the hand on the stream: drag with momentum to rewind or catch up. One tap between any of them, and your place is exact. EVERYTHING A SERIOUS READER EXPECTS • Listen — read-aloud with word-by-word tracking, voice choice, sleep timer, Lock Screen controls.
