- EPub (.epub)
- Mobi (.mobi, .prc)
- Kindle (.azw, .azw3, .kf8)

The app is primarily intended as a simple reader for text based ebook formats. PDF features are rather basic, it’s just a viewer.

Download ebooks directly from your browser, copy files from other apps or add them with AirDrop. Import files with iCloud Drive, iTunes File Sharing, or from Dropbox, Google Drive, OPDS and Calibre.
Reader
The reader’s design is carefully crafted for ebooks and offers custom styles for better readability.
Choose your favorite theme, reader mode (day, sepia, grey, dusk, night, black), select a preset or custom font size, content layout (page, scroll) and many more options. All settings can be saved as your personal default for each book.
Swipe or tap to go to the next page. You can also use the book’s content outline or table of contents to navigate to another chapter.
While reading EPub, Mobi and Kindle books, select text to take notes or highlight favorite sections. Create bookmarks or search inside ebooks to quickly find anything you are looking for. Copy, define, translate or lookup selected text.
Library
Organise your books in an easy to use library.
Manage your library by creating folders or tags to organize your books. Sort your collection either by title, author, series, recently read or drag and drop for a custom order.
You can edit a document’s title, author, summary, cover or any other meta data. Save or export your books with all information and annotations in text, markdown or json format.
Cloud
Yomu’s Cloud Library (pro only) stores your books and annotations securely in Apple’s iCloud.
Keep all your ebooks safe and at hand on whatever device. Every time you change something on one device, it’s synced to all your other devices. Always have the latest version, when you start reading on your iPad and continue on your iPhone on the go.
Please note that you need to be signed in on your device with the same Apple ID on all platforms.
Widgets
See your recently read books or highlighted quotes.
Yomu includes widgets to quickly view and open your books and quotes. Add a widget from the gallery and choose a list from the options. Tap on an entry to continue reading where you left off.
Shortcuts
Build custom shortcuts to save or export your books and annotations.
A shortcut is a quick way to get one or more tasks done with your apps. The Apple Shortcuts app lets you create your own shortcuts with multiple steps.
Yomu includes shortcuts to list or open books and annotations and to export them in text, markdown or json format or save the original file. All shortcuts are available in the Apple Shortcuts app and can be freely combined with other actions.
