** This is a limited version of Hyphen. This version limits you to reading your most recently imported book, as well as the number of bookmarks and highlights you can make. The paid version does not have these limitations. **

Hyphen is a powerful, easy-to-use ePub reader designed from the ground up with you in mind, with cross-device syncing, super-fast rendering, effortless customization, and intuitive annotation features.

■ CROSS-DEVICE SYNCING

Start on one device, finish on another. Your entire library - books, annotations, bookmarks, and all - is synced between devices via iCloud.

■ PERSONALIZE YOUR READING EXPERIENCE

Hyphen comes packed with a ton of options for custom colors, fonts, font sizes, line heights, paragraph indentations, margins - ...well, you get the idea. You can even use styling on a per-book basis.

And if that’s not enough, you can also add your own CSS. Cool, right?

■ HIGHLIGHT AND ANNOTATE EFFORTLESSLY

Tap-and-drag or use the selection handles to highlight in any one of several available colors. Write notes for a highlight and refer to them any time you need to. You can also share highlights as images and post them to Twitter or Facebook, or export all your highlights for use elsewhere.

■ GOODREADS INTEGRATION

Use Goodreads? Weve got you covered - shelve books, make status updates and post quotes, all right from the app.

■ ADD BOOKS WITH EASE

Add ePubs using your favorite cloud services - Dropbox, Google Drive, OPDS servers, and more. You can also use the in-app web browser to download ePubs, or add them using iTunes.

OTHER NOTABLE FEATURES:

■ NIGHT MODE
Transition Hyphens reading interface to soothing, darker colors at night.

■ METADATA
Edit the title, author, subjects, covers and more of your books. Hyphen can even lookup book covers and metadata for you.

■ SHELVE & SORT
Add books to custom shelves, and sort by author, title, last read, or date added.

■ CUSTOM CSS & FONTS
Hyphen lets you import both your favorite fonts for use while reading, as well as CSS.

■ DEFINE & TRANSLATE
Translations of the text youre reading are only a tap away. Lookup words and terms in Wikipedia, Dictionary.com or Google.

■ TWO COLUMN SUPPORT
Got one of those large, spacious, king-sized, oh-my-lord-this-screen-is-so-big-I-shouldve-gotten-an-ipad-mini-instead,-its-so-big, why-is-it-so-big-sized screens? Use this setting to make reading more comfortable. You can also optionally only use two columns when your device is in landscape orientation.

■ VOCABULARY
Add words to a vocabulary list and export them easily.

■ INTERACTIVE
Tap and hold a link to open it in the in-app browser, or Safari. Images zoom in, letting you see every detail. Swipe through and jump between images throughout the text with the Image Viewer.

■ ADE PAGES SUPPORT
Hyphen utilizes ADE pages, so you’ll always have a cross-reader compatible way of finding and noting where you are in a book.

■ INCREDIBLY FAST
Download and import books in the blink of an eye. Hyphen’s ePub Rendering System is optimized so that there’s the least delay between you and the text.

Latest reviews of Hyphen Lite. app for iPhone and iPad

Wow!
Great reading app! Easy to customize to your hearts content. Has finger swipe for brightness and Goodreads integration. Good font selection, too. Very happy with it.
App doesnt work
This does not allow you to open your books and continues to ask you to upgrade.
The best thing since Stanza reader!
Seriously. I used to love reading from my phones / iPads with that app and was so sad to see it go. This app is the best since stanza and of anything else reading wise offered in the App Store! The free version has limited access so I upgraded to the full version. If your a reader who likes to customize its soooo worth it!
Great!
Im glad the developer offered a free version to try, otherwise I probably would not have bought the full version. But I tried it and loved it and am happy to support further development. Best ereader available these days!
Developing to be the best ereader
If you’re serious about reading, you will love this ereader. It has many nice features, and if there is one you find missing, you can suggest it to the developer, who is very responsive.
