Ember: Read & Learn Languages

Read real books in your target language — with instant translation, audio-assisted reading, vocabulary saving, built-in review, and synced bookmarks.

Ember Reader is designed for people who want to learn languages through real reading, not through isolated exercises alone.

Import your own EPUB, FB2, and TXT books, tap any word or phrase for instant translation, save vocabulary from real context, and review it later with built-in spaced repetition.

Use audio-assisted reading with live highlighting, speed controls, and Read from Here. When you want to stay in flow, Meaning-First Reading gives you paragraph and full-page translation views.

Your books, saved items, bookmarks, and reading progress stay in sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Read. Listen. Understand. Remember.
