United Through Reading

The United Through Reading App keeps military families reading together, no matter the distance. Stay connected at storytime by video recording yourself reading a storybook aloud to the special kids in your life even when military duty, deployment, training, drill weekends, or long work days keep you away. The UTR App is free, secure, and available to active duty service members, veterans, and their families who register through Troop ID from ID.me.

Since 1989, United Through Reading has provided service members with the opportunity to share the gift of reading together even when separated by military duty at more than 200 recording locations around the world.

With the United Through Reading App, you can:
● Includes built in viewer, festive frames, and enhanced user tools.
● NOW WITH EBOOKS! Choose from our library of ebooks and record video storytime right now!
● Record, save, and upload your video recordings by registering with Troop ID from ID.me.
● Record your video offline and upload when on wifi.

The NEW United Through Reading APP allows YOUR FAMILY:
- To watch the video on demand online or download for offline viewing.
- To request a FREE copy of the book read by the service member after recording via the email notification or on our website (https://bit.ly/UTRbooks) thanks to Dollar General Literacy Foundation.
