Description
LightYou — Your Reading Library, Reimagined
Save every article worth reading. Highlight what matters. Ask AI anything about your library. LightYou turns the web into your personal, searchable knowledge
vault.
▸ SAVE IN ONE TAP
Share from Safari, Twitter, or anywhere on iOS. LightYou extracts the article content — no ads, no clutter, just the words.
▸ BEAUTIFUL READER
Customize font, size, and theme (light, sepia, dark). Reader view strips out distractions so you can focus on what matters.
▸ HIGHLIGHT & ANNOTATE
Select any text to highlight it in three colors. Add private notes. Your highlights become a searchable knowledge base.
▸ AI-POWERED UNDERSTANDING
Chat with any article — ask questions, get summaries, translate passages, or explain difficult concepts. Powered by your choice of OpenAI or Gemini API.
▸ SPACED REPETITION REVIEW
LightYou surfaces articles worth revisiting on a spaced schedule, so the ideas you care about stay with you long-term.
▸ HOME SCREEN WIDGET
A beautiful iOS widget keeps your top review items one glance away — with native dark mode support.
▸ WEBDAV SYNC
Sync articles, highlights, and notes across all your devices via your own WebDAV server. Your data stays yours — no third-party accounts required.
▸ PRIVACY FIRST
All articles stored locally on your device. AI requests use your own API keys. Optional WebDAV sync uses your own server. We never see your data.
▸ OFFLINE READING
Saved articles are cached locally — read anytime, anywhere, with no connection.
▸ BEAUTIFUL IN BOTH LANGUAGES
Full Chinese and English support, with typography that respects each language.
Whether you're a researcher, student, writer, or just a curious reader, LightYou helps you go from "I'll read this later" to actually reading, understanding, and
remembering.
