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)
