Formerly CHMate

Preview of the next release. The App Store version is still CHMate. Mac edition coming soon, purchased separately.

At gate and courtyard—no murmur of the World’s dust: In the empty rooms—leisure and deep stillness.

From “Returning to the Fields I” by Tao Yuanming, a Chinese pastoral poet, on the quiet of a simpler life.

Arrange plants, artwork and animated ornaments. Add your own photos, Live Photos or silent videos, and switch on the reading lamp.

Import fonts and set body, heading and code faces separately. Adjust spacing and margins, with horizontal or vertical text in supported Chinese and Japanese books.

Search across chapters, highlight passages and add notes. Return to any marked passage.

The next release syncs books, reading positions, bookmarks, notes, fonts and shelf decor across compatible iPhone, iPad and Mac editions using the same iCloud account.

Export passages and notes as postcards or book-page cards, with an appearance preview. Bookshelf and Notes widgets open a book or take you back to a highlighted passage.

Manage EPUB, CHM and MHT files in one library. Transfer books over local Wi-Fi and read offline.

Start reading for free. If your library grows, a single in-app purchase unlocks an unlimited bookshelf forever.
