About ReadBuddy: Screen-Free Reading
ReadBuddy is a parent's tool for screen-free reading. Pick a topic your kid is curious about — dinosaurs, black holes, how soap works, choose a reading time, and ReadBuddy writes an age-appropriate article with comprehension questions. Then get it OFF the screen: print it on letter paper with one tap, or send it straight to a Kindle as a real e-book that reflows to any font size. • 12 kid-tested topic areas with hundreds of subtopics • Articles sized to age, reading level, and reading time (10 - 30 min) • Print-ready layout with age-appropriate type sizes • Send to Kindle as EPUB — kids control the font on their device • Reading history saved on your device • Private by design: no server accounts, no ads, no tracking nothing about your family is stored on our servers Made for parents. Loved by kids. Read more, scroll less.
What’s new
Version 1.3 · Updated August 8, 2026
This update makes article generation more reliable: you can now close the app or lock your phone while an article is being written, and we'll show it to you the moment it's ready — even if you come back later. Also: your app version is now visible in Settings, deleting an article from History is easier to find, and you can preview and adjust the print font size before printing.
