Features & Capabilities

New: twelve app icons, a separate font for headings, and link styles you pick. Large Calibre libraries now load as they arrive.

EPUB, PDF, comics, and audiobooks in one native iOS reader. Fast, deeply customizable, and built to disappear so you can simply read.

FOUR FORMATS, ONE SHELF Read EPUB 3 and PDF. Read CBZ and CBR comics and manga, with two-page spreads, double-tap zoom, and a reading direction you set per book. Listen to audiobooks with chapters, sleep timer, and Car Mode. Or follow along with EPUB 3 narration, where the text highlights in time with the voice. One library, one set of stats, everything you read in one place.

READ ALOUD Any book can be read to you, by any Apple voice on your device or by natural English voices you download once and then run offline. The sentence highlights as it is spoken and the pages turn on their own, with speed presets, sentence skips, a sleep timer, and Lock Screen controls. Prepare a book in advance and keep listening with the screen off.

TYPOGRAPHY YOU CONTROL 200+ fonts, or import your own. Tune size, weight, line and paragraph spacing, alignment, hyphenation, and separate margins for portrait and landscape. Save settings per book so a novel, a textbook, and poetry each look right. Build your own color themes and let them switch at sunset. Choose where a tap opens the toolbar, and give links their own color in every theme. Smart dark mode keeps images natural, and in-reader brightness, Line Focus, and eye-care break reminders protect your eyes.

NO LOCK-IN, EVER Your books stay ordinary files in an ordinary folder, never a proprietary database. Point justRead at any folder: on device, iCloud Drive, or one your cloud app syncs through Files. Import from a Calibre server or any OPDS catalog, and browse thousands of Calibre titles with sorting and filters. Email a book to your Kindle or PocketBook. Leave for another app whenever you like, nothing is trapped.

A LIBRARY THAT SCALES Thousands of books with no lag, and a book opens in about a second. Instant search by title, author, or series. Automatic metadata and series detection, 11 sort modes, saved filters, collections, and tags. Edit any book's details by hand, description included. Spotlight opens any book from your home screen.

HIGHLIGHTS, NOTES, BOOKMARKS Highlight, underline, and attach a note. Browse every highlight across your whole library in one place, share a quote as a card, or export to Markdown, PDF, or Readwise. Give bookmarks real titles so you can find them again.

YOUR READING, IN NUMBERS Daily goals, a yearly books goal, streaks, and milestone badges. An hourly heatmap shows when you read best. Monthly and yearly recaps, plus a story-style Reading Wrap that turns your year into cards worth sharing.

AND THE REST Home screen and lock screen widgets. Dictionary and translation. Full-text search and a nested table of contents. iCloud sync, so you resume on the exact line on any device. Right-to-left and Japanese vertical text. A page curl, if you want one.

Vote on the in-app roadmap. What readers ask for is what gets built next.

Free for 14 days, then a subscription. Available in 17 languages.

User Reviews

This is a polished, full-featured and stable app with Calibre integration and up-to-date UI. Seems to handle large libraries with ease, no "broken" books (unlike many other apps I have tried), plenty of intuitive, well placed controls. Also has an awesome text-to-speech function with many natural voices available to download. No spyware or telemetry of any kind - kudos to the developer! Instant buy for me!

In my long and often frustrating journey to find the perfect e-reader on iOS I never imagined I would stumble upon such a gem! Clean, uncluttered modern interface (fully following iOS 26 design guidelines). Plethora of options, some unavailable in any other app are strategically placed throughout the UI, without ever getting in the way, Calibre integration, excellent text-to-speech implementation, etc. Extra points to the developer for not including telemetry/analytics or other nasties! Very happy to have found justRead, instant purchase for me.
