About Melo – Mood Reader
Melo is an EPUB reader that responds to the story you're reading. As you read, Melo scores the emotional tone of each paragraph on your device and gently shifts the background colour to match: cooler tones for sorrow and tension, warmer tones for joy and calm. A small reading companion changes expression alongside the text, and a timeline beside the text traces the chapter's emotional arc. Fog of War Protection keeps the part you haven't read yet greyed out, so the timeline never gives away what's coming. READ YOUR OWN BOOKS • Import DRM-free EPUB files from the Files app, or open them in Melo from other apps • A few classic sample books are included to get you started: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Frankenstein and The Great Gatsby, in Standard Ebooks editions MAKE IT COMFORTABLE • Text size, serif or sans-serif type, line spacing, margins and justification • Light, Dark and Sepia themes, plus a brightness control • Choose where the active paragraph sits on screen • Fullscreen mode and an optional keep-screen-awake setting • Turn the mood ambience off whenever you like FIND YOUR PLACE • Table of contents and bookmarks • Melo remembers where you stopped in every book UNDERSTAND A PASSAGE • On iPhone and iPad models that support Apple Intelligence, select a passage and choose Analyze Context for a short explanation generated on your device. Requires Apple Intelligence to be turned on. Generated text can contain mistakes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account or sign-in • Melo doesn't use the internet, analytics or tracking • Your books, bookmarks and settings stay on your device Melo supports iPhone and iPad. Books protected by DRM can't be imported.
