Pages that turn like paper.

Lift a corner and the page follows your finger. Made first for the foldable iPhone, for the EPUBs, PDFs and comics you already have.

Turning

It follows your finger, and waits when you do.

Pull from anywhere on the page and its corner lifts and curls. Hold still and it waits, half turned. Let go and it settles over, or falls back.

  • A soft paper sound that moves with your hand, like a stylus on a record
  • Tap an edge for an instant turn when you're in a hurry
  • VoiceOver and Reduce Motion turn pages without the curl
An open iPhone Duo with two facing pages, the right-hand page partway through a turn, its corner curled over.

Made for the foldable iPhone

Covers outside. A book inside.

Folded, the front screen is your bookshelf: each cover fills it, edge to edge. Unfold over the one you want and it opens, two pages across, with the spine on the fold.

Your books

Bring your own books.

Import from Files, or share a book to Dogear from Safari, Mail or Files. Dogear keeps its own copy and remembers your place in every one.

EPUB

Books that reflow

Your text size and font, with the book's pictures in place and its own chapters in the contents.

PDF

Pages as printed

PDFs keep their layout, with the blank margins their pages share trimmed so the words are larger.

CBZ

Comics, a page per leaf

Comic book archives open in order, a full page on each side when the phone is open.

Dogear opens DRM-free books. Books protected by DRM, such as many store purchases and library loans, can't be opened.

Read your way

Press and hold for everything.

Rest a finger on the page and a menu opens where you are: text size, fonts, light or dark, page sounds, contents and your library. Your place stays put while the pages reflow.
