Reader for Watch
iPhone / Utilitaires
Reader for Watch turns your Apple Watch into a focused reader for your own EPUB and TXT books. Import books from the Files app on iPhone, send them to your paired Apple Watch, then keep reading from your wrist even when your iPhone is not with you.
Built for short breaks, commutes, and quiet moments away from your phone, the app prepares books for the small screen with chapter parsing, reading progress, bookmarks, and a clean watch library.
Key features:
- Import EPUB and TXT files from the iPhone Files app
- Send one book or your whole local library to Apple Watch
- Read offline on Apple Watch after transfer
- Automatic chapter parsing for supported EPUB and TXT books
- Smooth auto-scroll for hands-free reading
- Continue Reading widget and watchOS control for fast resume
- Adjustable font size, themes, colors, and text alignment
- Pin books, track progress, and manage finished books
- Archive local copies on iPhone after sending to Watch
- No account required; the app does not collect your data
Reader for Watch is made for people who already have their own books and want a simple, private way to read them on Apple Watch.
