Scrolls

Your thumb already knows how to read.

Scrolls takes real books and serves them the way your brain has been trained to want them — one vertical swipe, thirty words at a time. Same habit. Better input.

Nobody needs convincing that reading is good for them. The problem is that a book asks for a posture, a chair, and half an hour, while a phone asks for nothing at all. So the phone wins, every night, for years. We stopped trying to break the scrolling habit and started trying to hijack it.

Point your endless upward swipe at Middlemarch instead of a social feed, and the same reflex that burns an evening will finish a novel.

KEY FEATURES

📖 The Vertical Reader
Full-screen, distraction-free reading. Every swipe advances the story by about thirty words — one thought per screen. Typeset in Merriweather at whatever font size your eyes prefer. No pop-ups, no ads, no algorithm deciding what you read next.

⚡ XP, Streaks & Achievements
The same dopamine loop your feed uses, pointed at literature. Earn 10 XP per swipe, 200 XP for finishing a book, and unlock achievements as you build reading habits. Your streak exists to reward you — not to punish a missed day.

🌍 Reads Everywhere
Your shelf, your place, and your bookmarks sync across every device. Close the app mid-sentence on the bus; open it mid-sentence on the couch. Books cache locally after the first open, so tunnels, planes, and dead zones all still count.

📚 A Growing Catalogue
Browse and search a curated catalogue of classic literature and original content. New titles are added regularly. Add books to your personal library and pick up exactly where you left off.

🔍 In-Reader Dictionary
Tap any word for an instant definition without leaving the reader. Perfect for discovering new vocabulary as you read.

📝 Story So Far
Lost the thread? An on-device AI generates a quick summary of everything you've read so far — all processing happens on your device, nothing is sent to any server.

📜 A Weekly Poem
The home screen greets you with one short poem a week — a thirty-second read for the days when a whole chapter feels like too much.

👥 Book Clubs (Coming Soon)
Start a club, invite friends, and watch everyone's progress bar crawl across the same book. See who's racing ahead and who quietly stalled in chapter three. It's peer pressure, but the good kind.
