Galley: EPUB Editor & Maker

Native EPUB editor for iPhone & iPad. Edit chapters, metadata, CSS, and cover art. Export valid EPUB3. Free to try — Pro unlocks full power for $9.99, one-time purchase.

Galley is a native EPUB editor for iPhone and iPad. Create new EPUBs from scratch, import existing EPUB 2 and EPUB 3 files, and export polished packages — without a desktop.

Full EPUB editing Edit chapter text with a rich WYSIWYG editor or jump into XHTML/CSS code view (Pro). Manage metadata, cover art, images, and table of contents. Reorder chapters. Validate before you publish.

Built for authors and EPUB fix-ups Write, format, and export a standards-oriented EPUB 3 file ready for your distribution workflow. Catch broken links, package issues, and common content problems with the built-in validator.

Chapter management Add, rename, reorder, and delete chapters. Keep spine and navigation consistent as your book grows.

Rich text + code (Pro) Toggle between WYSIWYG editing and syntax-highlighted source editing. On iPad, use split view for code and preview. Go-to-line and in-file search help you move fast.

Metadata & cover Edit core Dublin Core fields, pick a cover, and keep OPF cover metadata in sync. Pro adds an OPF source view for package XML.

Validation & export Run structural and content checks, jump from issues to the right file, and export EPUB 3 via Share Sheet. Pro unlocks full validation, auto-fix, and EPUB 2 export.

iCloud Drive sync (Pro) Optionally mirror projects to iCloud Drive — your files, your Apple ID. Restore on another device when you’re signed in.

Offline & private Core editing works offline. Manuscripts stay on your device unless you export or enable sync. No account required. No third-party analytics SDKs. Crash and usage analytics are opt-in and off by default.

One-time purchase Free tier: core editing with a 3-project library. Galley Pro ($9.99, one-time Non-Consumable) unlocks unlimited projects, code view, TOC tools, image tools, full validation, EPUB 2 export, and iCloud Drive sync. No subscription. No in-app ads.
