In short

Crumple Focus Reader is an education app for reading saved articles and EPUB books. You can read page by page or stream text one word at a time, with pauses and haptic feedback tied to punctuation, and optional ambient loops playing behind the text. It is aimed at people with a backlog of things they intend to read, and it is free with no ads or account.

About

You saved it three weeks ago. It's still open in a tab.

Crumple helps you finish it. Send any article from Safari, or open an EPUB, and read it page by page, or stream it one word at a time. Commas and full stops get their own pause and their own tap, so your attention has something to hold on to.

When you reach the end, the page crumples into a ball. Your pile is one shorter.

BUILT FOR FOCUS, NOT SPEED • Page mode, or Stream: one word at a time, at a pace you set • Haptics that follow the rhythm of the sentence • Optional muted loops behind the words: rain, waves, ink, night drive, lava • Send articles from Safari's share sheet. EPUBs open directly • Free. No ads, no account, nothing to buy

Crumple isn't a speed-reading trick. It's for the things you keep meaning to read.
