Questions, answered
Is there an iPad app to download?
No download needed. goread installs straight from Safari as a Progressive Web App, so it lives on your home screen and runs full-screen without the App Store.
Does the big screen actually help?
A lot. goread sets a comfortable reading measure and large, adjustable type, so the iPad's screen gives you a calm, book-like page rather than a stretched phone layout.
Can I read offline?
Yes — once installed, an opened book keeps reading without a connection, so the iPad is ready for a flight or a weekend off-grid.
