Kura: One Line at a Time

About

Read long articles again. Kura shows any article one line at a time and, when you want, reads it to you in a natural voice made on your iPhone. Drop in a link, share a page from Safari, paste the text (out of a PDF, an email, anywhere), or photograph a printed page. Kura shows it one line at a time: the line you're on is dark, and the rest of the page stays faded until you get there. Tap, and the next one comes. Nothing to scroll past, nothing to skim ahead to, no wall of text making you feel behind. A long read becomes one line, then the next, all the way to the end. Whenever you'd rather listen, tap the waveform. A natural voice made on your iPhone reads the piece straight through, bringing each line up as it reaches it and lighting every word as it says it, so your eyes and your ears move together. Speed it up and it still sounds like a person. Kura reads while it's open, and carries on from the same line when you come back. Kura was built for anyone whose eyes skim ahead, and for readers with dyslexia or ADHD. If a full page is hard going, one line at a time is a size you can manage. Hold any line to highlight it, or to add a note (Pro). Finish a piece and its cover goes on your shelf, with your highlights gathered beneath it. Reading is free, all of it. Listening is free on your first three articles, and on the first two minutes of every article after that. Kura Pro is one purchase, no subscription. The catch-up, plainer lines and the finishing summary use Apple Intelligence, so they need an iPhone 15 Pro or later; everything else works on any iPhone. READ • Any article, one line at a time, revealed at your pace • Links, pasted text, pages shared from Safari, and photographed pages • Sections you can jump between, and your place kept for next time • Your choice of font, size, and light or night • When a site keeps its story behind a paywall, Kura says so and sends you to Safari, where your subscription applies LISTEN • A natural, AI-generated English voice, made entirely on your iPhone • Every word lit as it's spoken • Play and pause from your earphones • Other languages read by the voices built into iPhone, where one is installed KEEP • Highlights and notes, all searchable • A cover on your shelf for everything you finish • A line shared as a card, or as a short looping vertical video • Widgets that hold your place • One-file export, restore on a new iPhone, or delete it all WITH APPLE INTELLIGENCE • A short "So far" catch-up when you return to a long piece • Any line said plainer, on request (Pro) • Two lines on what it said, when you finish These three need iPhone 15 Pro or later on iOS 26 with Apple Intelligence turned on, in a supported language. Everything else in Kura works the same on any iPhone. All of it is written on your iPhone. PRIVATE No account. No analytics, no tracking. Kura has no server of its own: it fetches the page you asked for and that page's lead image, the App Store handles the purchase, and nothing else leaves your phone. What you read stays on your phone. The voice is made on your iPhone, never in the cloud. KURA PRO Pro unlocks the voice on every article, plus notes, plainer lines (with Apple Intelligence), a second voice, larger widgets, and Markdown export. One purchase, no subscription, nothing expires. Everything in Pro is yours for good. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula
