A private reader for iPhone and iPad
Vellichor
Your books. Your narrator.
Turn personal books and documents into a synchronized reading and listening experience, with narration prepared on your device.
The reading experience
The voice follows the page.
Bring your own library
Import EPUB, PDF and plain-text files from the system document picker.
Read and listen together
Sentence-level highlighting follows the narrator without turning the page into a transcript.
Start from the page
Tap a passage to begin there, then move naturally between chapters and listening modes.
Stay in control
Choose a narrator, adjust speed, seek, set a sleep timer and continue with the screen locked.
Synchronized by design
Listen without leaving the book behind.
Vellichor keeps prose, chapter position and playback in one place. The active sentence is visible but quiet, so close reading and hands-free listening feel like two views of the same book.
Private by design
Your books are not a data source.
Book text is parsed and narrated on your device. It is not uploaded to IKARZA or a remote narration service.
No Vellichor account is required. The app contains no advertising or cross-app tracking.
Voice resources may be downloaded before first use; those requests never contain book text or library information.

One quiet library. No subscription.
Vellichor will include a free listening allowance for every book and a single lifetime unlock for unlimited narration.
