SimplRead for iPhone & iPad
Simplify articles on your Apple device. Share a link from Safari or Messages, paste text, or open your reading history.
The iOS app is being submitted to the App Store. Use the web app in Safari until the listing is live, or build from source with Xcode (see docs/IOS.md).
Same calm reader, in your pocket
Apple devices are where many people catch up on news and long emails. SimplRead turns that queue into slides you can finish in short bursts — useful when notifications compete for attention. Sign in with your simplread.com account to keep history aligned with Chrome and Android.
