BookReadingHelper

Underline the words you don’t know. We’ll explain them in the margin.

BookReadingHelper is for people learning a language by reading real books. Photograph a page and get translations, example sentences and a short summary of everything you marked.

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play.

How it works

  1. Mark as you read

    Underline the words and sentences you don’t know with a pencil, the way you already do.

  2. Photograph the page

    When you finish a page, take one photo. The app finds your underlines and recognizes the book’s language on its own.

  3. Review what you marked

    See what each word means in that sentence, with examples, sentence translations and a summary of the page.

What you get for each page

  • Words in context

    Not just a dictionary entry: the meaning the word has in this sentence, with example sentences.

  • Whole sentences

    Underline a full sentence to see it translated.

  • Page summary

    A short summary and the main idea of the page, so you don’t lose the thread.

  • Listen

    Hear words and sentences read aloud in a natural voice.

  • Favorites and quiz

    Save the words you want to keep. Once you have enough, a quiz brings them back, and the ones you’ve learned return a couple of weeks later.

  • History

    Every page you photograph stays in your history, ready to revisit.
