Hello!

I'm posting about it again, since I have added many cool features since my post last month!

For the past month or so I have been working on Another Page. It's an e-book reader that also functions as an app blocker. It puts a few pages of a classic book between you and your most distracting apps. So when you try to open an app like TikTok or Instagram, a reading screen will show up first. Read a bit, and the app will open for the timed window you've set. Then it will lock once again.

Here's how it works:

* Pick the apps that you want to block.
* When you open one, a reading session will start, resuming right where you left off.
* Once you hit your goal, in pages or minutes, the app will unlock for the timed window you've set.

A few features of the app: It's a fully featured e-book reader with support for various book formats (EPUB, PDF, MOBI, and AZW3), a good font selection, various themes, and other features like annotations, bookmarks, highlight and a dictionary. It also works as a standalone reader.

The app also comes with a library of about 1,400 free classics from Standard Ebooks, which are nicely formatted public-domain editions that you can read without needing any subscription. Some examples are Frankenstein, Pride and Prejudice, Moby Dick, and Meditations. The app has no backend, requires no account, and has no ads or tracking.

The free version has all the core features: the reader, the full library of 1,400 books, blocking, streaks, and stats. It works fine on its own. The app also a premium tier if you want more, with unlimited blocked apps (free covers 3), app groups with their own rules, uploading your own books, extra schedule windows, reading insights, and a couple of streak freezes a month.

Let me know if you have any feedback or questions! You can also DM me if you are curious about the premium, and I can send you promo codes.

Hello!

Thank you to mod for approving this!

Since my last post on this subreddit had a positive reception I am posting about it again.

Another Page: An e-book app that makes you read a few pages before you can open your distracting apps, with almost 1400 free classics included.

Hello! I’m the developer of Another Page.

A — Answer: What problem does it solve?

For the past month or so, I have been working on Another Page. It’s an e-book reader that also functions as an app blocker. It puts a few pages of a classic book between you and your most distracting apps.

When you try to open an app like TikTok or Instagram, a reading screen will show up first. Read a bit, and the app will unlock for the timed window you’ve set. Then it will lock once again.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Pick the apps that you want to block.
  2. When you open one, a reading session will start, resuming right where you left off.
  3. Once you hit your goal, in pages or minutes, the app will unlock for the timed window you’ve set.

B — Better: How is it different?

There are other read-to-unlock apps, such as PageLock, BookLock, and FaithLock. However, as far as I could find, none combines app blocking with a proper, fully featured built-in e-book reader and a large ready-to-read library.

There are also app blockers such as Opal, one sec, ScreenZen, and AppBlock. They create friction through delays, limits, or schedules, but I wanted something that also helps build a replacement habit. Instead of only stopping you from opening an app, Another Page redirects that impulse into reading.

The reader supports various book formats, including EPUB, PDF, MOBI, and AZW3. It has a good font selection, various themes, annotations, bookmarks, highlights, and other reading features. It also works as a standalone e-book reader, so you don’t have to use the blocking functionality.

The app comes with a library of about 1,400 free classics from Standard Ebooks. These are nicely formatted public-domain editions that you can read without needing a subscription. Some examples are Frankenstein, Pride and Prejudice, Moby Dick, and Meditations.

The app has no backend, requires no account, and has no ads or tracking.

C — Cost

The free version has all the core features: the reader, the full library of 1,400 books, blocking for up to three apps, streaks, and stats. It works fine on its own.

The app also has a Premium tier if you want more. Premium includes unlimited blocked apps, app groups with their own rules, uploading your own books, extra schedule windows, reading insights, and a couple of streak freezes each month.

Premium costs $4.99 per month or $34.99 per year in the US, with localized pricing in other countries.

For this post, I’m also offering Lifetime Premium for $9.99 (There is a localized price for select countries):

Would anyone in the book or productivity adjacent space be interested in my app?

Hello!

I am going to be upfront and just say that I can't really offer any monetary compensation now, as my app isn't making much money. I can offer you access to lifetime Premium, and some other codes for your followers. I'm hoping for a genuine post or story if you actually like the app. There is no obligation. If you are interested you can DM me or comment here.

It's an e-reader app that also functions as an app blocker, so if you are someone whose goal is to read more, it can be fairly useful. It puts a few pages of a classic book between you and your most distracting apps. So if you open an app like Instagram or TikTok, a reading screen will show up first. Read a bit, and the app opens for the window you have set. Then it will lock once again.

You don't need any subscription to read them. There's no account needed, and there are no ads or tracking. The free version has all the core features and works fine on its own.

Premium adds a bit more if you want it: unlimited blocked apps, app groups with their own rules, uploading your own books, extra schedule windows, reading insights, streak freezes, and a strict mode that puts a PIN or a puzzle in your way when you try to loosen your own rules.

It's called another page and it's on both iPhone and Android.

[iOS][$79.99 -> Free Lifetime] Another Page: An e-book app that makes you read a few pages before you can open your distracting apps, with almost 1400 free classics included.

Hello!

Another giveaway on getting 500 users!

I would like to offer premium to users who actually like reading books, or would like to develop an habit of reading, and can give feedback and review it later on the play store. If you are curious about the app, then you can message me. Please message me if you want the premium and upvote the post!

For the past month or so I have been working on Another Page. It's an e-reader app that also functions as an app blocker, so if you are someone whose goal is to read more, it can be fairly useful. It puts a few pages of a classic book between you and your most distracting apps. So if you open an app like Instagram or TikTok, a reading screen will show up first. Read a bit, and the app opens for the window you have set. Then it will lock once again.

How it works

  1. Pick the apps you want to block.
  2. When you open one, a reading session starts, right where you left off.
  3. Hit your goal, in pages or minutes, and the app unlocks for as long as you set.

Some of its features

  • It's a fully featured e-book reader with support for EPUB, PDF, MOBI, and AZW3, so it has a good font selection, light/sepia/dark themes, highlights, bookmarks, and basically everything you would expect from a proper e-book reader app. It works as a standalone reader too.
  • A library of about 1,400 free classics from Standard Ebooks. These are nicely made public-domain editions. You don't need any subscription to read them. Each one downloads the first time you open it, then it's saved for offline reading. Some examples are Frankenstein, Pride and Prejudice, Moby Dick, and Meditations.
  • The rules are extremely flexible and you can customize them to your needs. Pages or minutes to unlock, how many unlocks a day, how long each one lasts. You can pause it, put it on a schedule, or borrow a little time when you've run out. The app holds you to your choices. It doesn't punish you.
  • There's no account needed, and there are no ads or tracking. Your blocked apps, reading progress, and streaks always stay on your phone.
  • If you really mean it, there's an optional strict mode (Premium) that puts a PIN or a puzzle in your way when you try to loosen your own rules, so a weak moment can't quietly undo them.

The free version has all the core features: the reader, the full library of 1,400 books, blocking, streaks, and stats. It works fine on its own.

How can I promote my app targeted towards bookish/productivity audience? I don't really have any marketing budget.

Hello!

I have never been someone who has used instagram a lot so I have no idea what works and what kind of content catches the attention of people in these niches. I have tried posting some reels but they have failed to get any traction.

Here is a bit about my app:

It's an e-reader app that also functions as an app blocker, so if you are someone whose goal is to read more, it can be fairly useful. It puts a few pages of a classic book between you and your most distracting apps. So if you open an app like Instagram or TikTok, a reading screen will show up first. Read a bit, and the app opens for the window you have set. Then it will lock once again.

I currently have only seven followers. One of my first reels reached around 108 accounts and had an 86% skip rate. Another reached around 120 accounts, had a 71.7% skip rate, and then stopped receiving views. I know these are very small samples, but I would like to improve the content instead of blaming the algorithm.

What kind of content would you try for an app like this? Should I focus on showing how the app works, making content about books and reading, or something else?

For the past month or so I have been working on Another Page. It's an e-reader app that also functions as an app blocker, so if you are someone whose goal is to read more, it can be fairly useful. It puts a few pages of a classic book between you and your most distracting apps. So if you open an app like Instagram or TikTok, a reading screen will show up first. Read a bit, and the app opens for the window you have set. Then it will lock once again.

How it works

  1. Pick the apps you want to block.
  2. When you open one, a reading session starts, right where you left off.
  3. Hit your goal, in pages or minutes, and the app unlocks for as long as you set.

Some of its features

  • It's a fully featured e-book reader with support for EPUB, PDF, MOBI, and AZW3, so it has a good font selection, light/sepia/dark themes, highlights, bookmarks, and basically everything you would expect from a proper e-book reader app. It works as a standalone reader too.
  • A library of about 1,400 free classics from Standard Ebooks. These are nicely made public-domain editions. You don't need any subscription to read them. Each one downloads the first time you open it, then it's saved for offline reading. Some examples are Frankenstein, Pride and Prejudice, Moby Dick, and Meditations.
  • The rules are extremely flexible and you can customize them to your needs. Pages or minutes to unlock, how many unlocks a day, how long each one lasts. You can pause it, put it on a schedule, or borrow a little time when you've run out. The app holds you to your choices. It doesn't punish you.
  • There's no account needed, and there are no ads or tracking. Your blocked apps, reading progress, and streaks always stay on your phone.
  • If you really mean it, there's an optional strict mode (Premium) that puts a PIN or a puzzle in your way when you try to loosen your own rules, so a weak moment can't quietly undo them.

The free version has all the core features: the reader, the full library of 1,400 books, blocking, streaks, and stats. It works fine on its own. The app also a premium tier if you want more, with unlimited blocked apps (free covers 3), app groups with their own rules, uploading your own books, extra schedule windows, reading insights, and a couple of streak freezes a month.

Would anyone in the book or productivity adjacent space be interested in my app?

Hello!

I am going to be upfront and just say that I can't really offer any monetary compensation now, as my app isn't making much money. I can offer you access to lifetime Premium, and some other codes for your followers. I'm hoping for a genuine post or story if you actually like the app. There is no obligation. If you are interested you can DM me or comment here.

It's on both iPhone and Android.

[Android/iOS][$79.99 -> Free Lifetime] Another Page: An e-book app that makes you read a few pages before you can open your distracting apps, with almost 1400 free classics included.

Hello!

I'm doing another giveway, since the app now supports many more formats. If you are someone with good social media following, then I can give 3 month premium for your followers too if you post about it.
