About

Your scrolling apps stay shut until you've read today's pages. Read First uses Apple's Screen Time to lock the apps that eat your evenings. Read your pages, snap a photo of the page you're on, and they open back up. That's the whole deal. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps that take your time 2. Add your book and the date you want to finish it 3. Read First works out today's page count 4. Read, snap the page, type where you got to. Your apps open. MAKE IT YOURS • All day: locked until you've read • Reading hours: locked only during the hours you choose • Relock rounds: read, get a few hours free, then a new page count • Normal or Hard: decide whether the lock screen can be dismissed A LIBRARY THAT GROWS Covers pulled in automatically, an up-next shelf, your finished books and a daily streak. And Folio, a small book who is very happy when you read. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. Your books, pages and photos stay on your iPhone. Screen Time gives Read First anonymous tokens only, so it can't see which apps you picked or anything you do in them. SUBSCRIPTION Read First requires a subscription. Try it free for 7 days, then $9.99 a month or $49.99 a year. Payment is charged to your Apple ID when the trial ends.
