Meet Berry, a calmer screen for reading.

Everything you read
is here.
Save an essay from the web, a thread from X, or a book from your files. Berry keeps it together on your phone. Open where you left off.

Search titles and the text.
Sort A to Z or by recently read.
Keep track

Set your tone, dim the light past your phone’s lowest setting,
or warm the page for evening.

In the shade of the house, in the sunshine of the riverbank near the boats, in the shade of the Sal-wood forest, in the shade of the fig tree is where Siddhartha grew up…Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
As much page
as you like.
More words or fewer, it’s up to you. Shorter pages feel lighter, so it’s easier to keep focus.
Henry David Thoreau, Walden
See how long you’ve read.
Berry keeps track only while pages are turning, so a book left open on the nightstand doesn’t add up.
