What it does

A reader that remembers everything.

Built for people with a few hundred PDFs and a phone, a laptop, and a browser tab they keep losing books between.

Your place follows you

Reading position, highlights, notes and bookmarks sync across devices. Offline, it keeps them on the device and sends them when you're back online.

Tabs, like a browser

Keep several books open and switch instantly. "Open with" from Explorer drops a book into a new tab.

PDF and real EPUB

EPUBs reflow as ebooks, with chapters and adjustable type. They aren't flattened into PDFs.

Notion to book

Paste a Notion link and get a typeset PDF, subpages and all. Import it again later to pull in your latest edits.

Edit Arena

Reorder, rotate, crop, merge and split pages. Every edit is a new version, so you can always go back.

Friends and shared shelves

Send a book to a friend, see what they're reading, and keep private shelves private.

Seven reading themes

Paper, Sepia, Ink, Midnight and more. Page tints for night reading, focus mode, middle-click autoscroll and find in the toolbar.

Download

Sign in once and your library is waiting in all three.

About

Made for reading, not for scrolling past.

SynKitab started as a way to stop losing books between devices. It grew into a reader that typesets Notion pages, reflows EPUBs, lets you edit pages safely, and keeps your place across a phone, a PC and a browser.

"Kitab" is Arabic, Urdu and Hindi for book. The rest is sync.

Your books stay yoursFiles on your device stay on your device unless you choose to sync them. Each account can only see its own library.
Your Notion token never leaves your deviceIt's sent with each conversion and never stored on the server.
Delete everything, any timeDeleting your account in Settings removes your books, notes and history from the server.
Works offlineDownloaded books open without a connection. Your place syncs when you're back online.

Pick up where you left off.

On whatever's in your hand.
