Every word arrives at a single, still point — so your eyes stop scanning and your attention stops wandering. Just focus, and flow.
A live preview — the whole idea in three seconds.
Most readers settle around 400–600 words a minute — but you set the pace. Made for finishing books, not skimming them.
Your whole library — the books themselves, your reading positions and settings — packs into one file. Share it straight to another device (AirDrop, Messages…) or export it, then tap Import there. No account, no server: your data stays in your hands.
“I built Stillpoint because I thought it was a genuinely cool way to read. And once it worked, I couldn't find a good reason to make anyone pay for it — so I didn't. It's free, it stays free, and it's yours.”
— Ruben, who made Stillpoint
A refined thing, made free — no ads, no accounts, nothing tracked. If Stillpoint helped you read, you can leave a tip. It's what keeps it alive and growing — the readers who love it are the only thing funding it.
♥ Built for free, supported by readers like you.

When you read normally, your eyes don't glide along the line — they jump, stop, and often dart back to re-read. Stillpoint removes the chase: it holds each word at one fixed point, aligned on the letter your eye naturally locks onto. You stay still; the words come to you.
