About YtReader

YtReader turns video subtitles into a reading and annotation interface. Users can browse and search videos, follow subtitles with synchronized word highlighting, and save useful passages as highlights or notes. Videos can be organized into collections, and a home-screen widget provides quick access to the library. Adjustable font, size, and line spacing support different reading preferences, with light, dark, and system themes available. The app includes optional AI-powered subtitle text cleaning through a compatible text-generation API. This feature requires the user’s own API key; AI processing is opt-in. The core functions include searching, subtitle reading, organizing videos, and annotating text. The description says data is stored locally and that the app has no account, tracking, or analytics. Since the AI option uses an external API, users should consider what subtitle text they submit to that service and the service’s handling of it. YtReader is aimed at people who prefer reading and studying spoken content through subtitles, with tools to save and revisit selected passages. It is an open-source project. The supplied evidence does not specify which subtitle languages or video availability conditions are supported.
