Can I read books in their original language with LinguaRead?

Yes. LinguaRead is built specifically for reading books in their original language. Drop in any EPUB and read - if you don't know a word, tap it and see the meaning right there in the sentence, including the form, the sense, and how it's used in context. The story doesn't pause.

What languages does LinguaRead support?

Fourteen: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Arabic. You can read books in any of those languages and get explanations in English.

What books can I read with LinguaRead?

Any EPUB. Drop in files from your library, email, or Project Gutenberg. The built-in store also includes free classics in the public domain - Cervantes, Hugo, Tolstoy, Carroll, Leroux, and many more, sorted by language.

Free to download, free to start reading. Plus subscription unlocks unlimited word translations, full in-context explanations, saved-word review with spaced repetition, and iCloud sync - from $5.99/month or $49.99/year. Cancel anytime.

Does LinguaRead work offline?

Reading itself works offline once a book is in your library. Tap-to-translate uses the network for the AI lookup; once a word is saved, it's available offline.

Does LinguaRead sync across devices?

Yes. iCloud carries your library, your saved words, and your reading progress to every iPhone and iPad you own. Start a chapter on one, finish it on the other.

Most apps drill you with made-up sentences.
We give you real books.

The words you actually remember come from stories that matter to you - the novel you couldn't put down at sixteen, the writer everyone keeps recommending, the book you've been meaning to read for years.

LinguaRead lets you finally pick it up - in the language it was written in - without feeling lost. Tap a word. Keep reading. The meaning shows up where you stopped, then disappears when you move on.
