Store description excerpt
BookSkim is a fast, private EPUB reader for Android — built for people who want to read more books and get through them faster, without ads, accounts, or anything watching over their shoulder. Import your own .epub files, open them instantly, and read in a clean full-screen view designed to disappear so the book doesn't. ⚡ FAST SKIM MODE BookSkim's signature feature. Fast Skim applies bionic-style reading typography — the first few letters of each word are bolded so your eye locks onto the shape of the word and your brain fills in the rest. Less backtracking, less subvocalising, more pages per sitting. Tap once to switch it on. Tap again to read normally. It works on any book in your library. 📚 A REAL EPUB READER • Import any EPUB from your device — no store, no lock-in, no DRM servers • Fast, accurate EPUB parsing with proper chapters, images and formatting • Table of contents drawer to jump anywhere in a book • Full in-book search • Highlight passages and set bookmarks that stay put • Page-curl page turns, or just tap to advance • Immersive full-screen reading with no status bar clutter 🎨 MADE FOR YOUR EYES • Four themes: Light, Sepia, Dark, and true-black AMOLED for OLED screens • Serif and Sans font styles, with fonts chosen for on-screen legibility (Literata, Gelasio, Arimo, Montserrat) • Adjustable font size • Dark mode reading that's actually comfortable at 1am 📖 TAP ANY WORD Hit a word you don't know? Tap it for an instant dictionary definition without leaving the page. Need more, search the web in one tap — but only if you ask for it. 🔥 KEEP THE HABIT BookSkim tracks your reading streak and time read, so the days you finish a chapter actually count for something. No leaderboards, no social feed — just you and the number. 🔒 PRIVATE BY DEFAULT This is the part most reading apps get wrong. • No user accounts. No sign-up. No email required. • No ads. Anywhere. Ever. • No analytics, no tracking, no behavioural profiling. • Your books, covers, highlights, bookmarks and settings live on your device and nowhere else. • Works fully offline. The only time BookSkim touches the internet is when you tap a word for a definition, tap to web-search, or send a bug report — all optional, all on-demand. Read on a plane, read on the metro, read with the SIM out. It all works. ✨ NEW IN THIS VERSION • Faster, cleaner EPUB parsing and rendering • Redesigned table of contents • Reading streaks and time-read stats • Instant dictionary lookup on any word • AMOLED theme refinements GOOD FOR Students working through textbooks and set reading. Professionals clearing a non-fiction backlog. Anyone with a folder of EPUBs and no good way to read them. Anyone who wants a distraction-free reading app that respects their attention and their data. Free. Offline. Yours. Questions or bugs: hello@wildkidstudio.in
