Reading should be something kids look forward to, not a chore. ReaderZ transforms daily reading into an exciting adventure for kids ages 5-12 — with fun timers, badges, streaks, and a family leaderboard that makes every session feel like a win.
How It Works
- Create a profile for each child with their name, age, and daily reading goal
- Add books by scanning barcodes or entering them manually
- Start the timer when your child sits down to read
- Watch them grow as they earn badges, extend streaks, and see their progress on the family dashboard
Powered by On-Device AI (iOS 26+)
ReaderZ uses Apple’s on-device AI to make the experience feel truly personal — with no data sent to the cloud:
- Personalized coach messages after every session, mentioning the child by name and the book they’re reading
- Book-specific journal prompts tailored to the exact book your child just read
- Smarter book recommendations that learn from your child’s reading history to surface the most relevant picks
Free vs Premium
ReaderZ is free to use with up to 2 children, 5 book journal entries, and book recommendations. Upgrade to Premium for unlimited children, unlimited journal entries, advanced dashboard analytics, and cloud sync across devices.
