Footnotes splits the full text of books into one-minute episodes you swipe through like reels. Tap any word for its meaning, highlight lines, or have it read aloud. Start with the classics, or upload your own EPUB or PDF.
Hi! I’m Radha. I’ve always been a reader, and I run a book page, but I kept seeing the same thing around me: people haven’t stopped loving stories, they’ve just moved to reels. Hours of short, swipeable content, and a 300-page book feels impossible to start.
So instead of asking people to change their habits, Footnotes meets them where they already are:
📱 The full text of every book (no summaries) is split into one-minute episodes of short, full-screen cards you swipe up through
📖 Tap any word for its meaning, highlight lines and keep private notes
🎧 Listen mode reads it aloud and turns the pages for you
📚 Upload your own EPUB or PDF and read it the same way (it stays on your phone)
