Softpage: Reflow PDF Reader

Softpage is a PDF reader that reflows book PDFs, textbooks and two-column papers into text that fits your iPhone, at the size you choose, and reads it aloud with text to speech. No account. No ads. No tracking. Your books, notes and highlights stay on your iPhone and are never uploaded. Works with PDFs that contain text, such as most PDF ebooks, textbooks and research papers. Scanned pages are not converted to text; they show as page images. REFLOW, NOT ZOOM • Import PDFs and EPUBs from the Files app, including iCloud Drive. • Turns PDFs made for print into text that reflows to fit your screen. • Keeps headings, lists and reading order. • Two-column papers read as a single column. If a layout is unusual, set columns to Auto, One or Two. • Tap a footnote marker to read the note in place. • Figures, tables and formulas appear as images from the original page. • Switch to the original PDF page at the same line, and back. • Original view with zoom, and page-by-page or continuous scrolling. • Dark Pages draw original PDF pages in your theme's colours. • Built for 900-page textbooks: the first page appears while the rest is still being prepared. LISTEN WHILE YOU READ • Read aloud with the voices built into your iPhone. • Highlights each word as it is spoken and scrolls along. • Skip forward or back a sentence, with speeds from 0.75× to 2×. • While listening, tap any word to continue from there. • Keeps going into the next chapter. • Supports your Personal Voice. HIGHLIGHTS, NOTES AND BOOKMARKS • Highlight in five colours or underline, and add notes. • Your highlights also appear on the original PDF page. • Export highlights and notes as Markdown. • Bookmarks, a table of contents and search across the whole book. • See the time left in the chapter and the book, based on your own reading speed. • Picks up exactly where you left off. • Sort and filter your library by progress. READ YOUR WAY • 10 built-in themes, from Paper and Sepia to Night and true Black. Every built-in theme meets WCAG AA contrast. • Make your own themes; custom themes are contrast-checked. • Can switch with the system's Light and Dark mode. • Serif, sans-serif or rounded type, with adjustable text size, line spacing and margins, and a Bold Text option. EPUB BOOKS TOO • Reads EPUB 2 and EPUB 3 books (DRM-free, reflowable) with the same themes, highlights and read aloud. OVER 250 PUBLIC-DOMAIN CLASSICS AND PAPERS • Browse classics from Project Gutenberg and open-access research papers from arXiv, and download them in one tap. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Reflow, search and read aloud all run on your iPhone. • Your books and notes are never uploaded. Anonymous usage statistics help us improve the app; see the privacy policy. • Gentle on battery: background work eases off when your iPhone is hot, unplugged or in Low Power Mode.
