tldr summaries

tldr is a private, on-device reading companion that turns links, PDFs, and screenshots into instant summaries you can read now, search later, or listen to on the go.

See an interesting article? Get a long PDF at work? Screenshot something you want to remember later? Just share it to tldr. The app reads the text, pulls out the key points, and gives you both a short summary and a more detailed one in seconds.

tldr is built for people who save too much and want the important parts fast. Instead of letting links, documents, and screenshots disappear into your camera roll or reading list, tldr turns them into something useful right away.

What you can do with tldr

Capture anything Share links, PDFs, screenshots, and other text-rich content directly into the app.

Get quick takeaways Instantly generate a short summary for a fast overview, plus a more detailed summary when you want extra context.

Search naturally Search across everything you’ve saved using natural language. Just describe what you remember — no need for exact titles or keywords.

Listen on the go Turn summaries into audio and listen while walking, commuting, or cooking. You can even queue multiple saves into a podcast-style briefing.

Ask questions about what you saved Need a specific detail from a document or article? Ask a question and get a direct answer based on the content you captured.

Stay private Your data stays on your device. Reading, summarizing, and search happen on-device, so your content is not uploaded to a server.

Whether you’re saving research, work documents, articles, or things you want to revisit later, tldr helps you capture the source, keep the signal, and skip the noise.
