What it does
PagePilot is a local-first ebook reader for iPhone and iPad. Import EPUB, PDF, or CBZ books, open one on your device, and turn pages from Apple Watch by tapping a button or rotating the Digital Crown. It is built for a narrow but real reading workflow: your phone or iPad is already in a comfortable position, but every page turn still makes you reach for the screen. Your books, reading progress, and reading stats stay on your device. No account or cloud bookshelf required.
PagePilot 是一款本地优先的 iPhone 和 iPad 电子书阅读器，支持 EPUB、PDF、CBZ、Apple Watch 遥控翻页、Wi-Fi 传书、阅读统计和系统 TTS 朗读。书籍与阅读数据保存在设备本地。
PagePilot is a book reader built for iPhone & iPad. Read in bed with your phone on a stand, keep reading at the gym, or settle in on a high-speed train and turn pages from your Apple Watch. Reaching for the screen breaks the moment. PagePilot pairs with your Apple Watch so the Digital Crown turns the page — perfect when your phone sits on a stand, you're on a treadmill, or you're on a tray table at 300 km/h. Try clicking the Digital Crown on the Apple Watch mockup to flip this page! PagePilot is a BYO-content reader. Import your own EPUB, PDF, CBZ comics, and audiobooks — no bundled books, no online store, no cloud account required. Drag files from any computer on your Wi-Fi straight into…from pagepilot.doublewaterapps.com

I'm launching something that started as a side project publicly today: ReadToMe, which is an iPhone app that turns paper books and other printed text into audio. Originally this was a Christmas present for my fiancée, who loves books but has an eye problem that makes it hard for her to read more than a few pages at a time. She mostly listens to audiobooks while following along with the paper book, but some books aren't available in audiobook or even e-book form, and all of the existing apps we tried were surprisingly bad at scanning paper books into audio — they make lots of mistakes,…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
