Use AI to summarize it or translate it. All from inside Safari, on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Use the app to build a Collection to read later: web pages, blogs, email, from any rich text sources. Share a clip of what you are reading, beautifully with Share Clip feature and PDF.\n\nTHE READER\nAds, pop-ups, and clutter disappear. You get the article, beautifully formatted, with adjustable summary length and one-tap access from the toolbar or quick access button addable to the any site you frequent.\nRead it in Safari, or use the companion app that manages your article Collection.\nFeatures to help you quickly understand the article and get the essence with summary or Ask feature. \n\nAI THAT RUNS WHERE YOU CHOOSE\nAreaderZ lets you decide where the intelligence happens:\n• On-device — With Apple Intelligence, AreaderZ uses Apple's Foundation Model right on your device. Summaries work offline. Nothing ever leaves your Mac or iPhone.\n• Fully local — Connect to Ollama, LM Studio, oMLX, llama.cpp and more running on your own machine. Private, free, and under your control.\n• Your own key — Bring your own key for any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Your key is stored securely, encrypted in Apple Keychain, and never shared with us.\n\nPOWERFUL, FOCUSED FEATURES\n• Distraction-free Reader View – personalizable with themes and customization\n• One-click AI summaries with adjustable length\n• Ask questions about what you are reading\n• Translation\n• Quick access: use keyboard shortcut to open the extension; or add quick access button to any website you choose\n• Offline caching\n• Export to PDF beautifully and cleanly formatted\n• Secure iCloud Keychain and preference sync\n\nREAD IT LATER\n• Save an article to Collection and access it later in companion app\n• Your own Up Next reading sessions – that you curate, no algorithm\n• Organize saved articles with folders, favorites\n• Free user limited to 100 saved articles\n• Collection Synced over iCloud\n• Save text from any app that allows Share Sheet (e.g., email, word processor)\n\nMARK IT UP [Supporter Preview]\n• Add highlights and notes\n• Export PDF clean or with highlights\n\nNO ACCOUNT REQUIRED TO USE\nNo sign-up and no usage quota. We don't collect your browsing history, article content, or API keys. There is no AreaderZ server in the middle of your reading.\n\nWHO IT'S FOR\n• Avid web surfers who frequent their favorite news sites, blogs, newsletters\n• Researchers and students racing through papers and long reads\n• Readers of foreign-language news who want instant, natural translation\n• Privacy-conscious users who won't send their reading habits and history to a third party cloud (we use iCloud to store your data privately and not on our server)\n• Anyone with Apple Intelligence who wants AI that works offline\n\nGETTING STARTED\nInstall, open the app once to enable the extension in Safari, and pick your provider. On Apple Intelligence devices you're done — no key, no setup. Otherwise paste one API key or point AreaderZ at your local model.\n\nNote: On-device AI requires a device with Apple Intelligence. Apple M3 or iPhone 16 and above recommended. Local and bring-your-own-key (BYOK) modes require access to a compatible server or provider; availability and costs depend on the service you choose.\n\nRead faster. Translate anything. Keep your reading to yourself.\n\nONE TIME PRO PURCHASE\n• One-time Pro purchase unlock key features that never expires\n\nSUPPORTER SUBSCRIPTION\n• Consider our Supporter subscription which supports our development and gain access to all features, including planned features not available to Pro\n• Go to our website for latest comparison of features table for Free, Pro, and Supporter tiers\n\nTerms of Use (EULA)\nhttps://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/","facts":{"developer_id":1833499256,"developer_url":"https://areaderz.com","first_released":"2026-09-24T07:00:00Z","support_url":"https://areaderz.com/support.html","privacy_url":"https://areaderz.com/privacy.html","website_url":"https://areaderz.com/","app_version":"0.3.8","release_notes":"Thank you for continued support of AreaderZ!\n- Get to what you want to read faster\n- General bug fixes and improvements \n- Customize the look of your folders with color and emoji [Pro]\n- [Supporter Exclusive] Change icons","rating_current_version":5,"rating_count_current_version":1,"star_counts":[0,0,0,0,1],"genres":["Productivity","Utilities"],"languages":["EN"],"content_advisories":null,"device_families":["mac","iphone","ipad"],"made_for_iphone_duo":false,"chart":null},"freshness":{"apple_read_at":"2026-11-12T23:21:12.659Z","catalog_read_at":"2026-11-13T19:51:13.093Z","reviews_checked_at":null,"summary_written_at":"2026-11-12T23:58:12.981Z","placed_at":"2026-11-12T23:48:12.714Z","scored_at":"2026-11-14T02:36:12.832Z"},"editorial":{"one_liner":"Distraction-free Safari reader with optional AI summaries, translation and a read-later collection.","what_is":"AreaderZ turns webpages into a clean reading view inside Safari on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
