A better reading setup

Point, listen, and turn the page.

BookSprite works by watching the open book and recognizing each new page. A clear, steady view helps it start narrating quickly and accurately.

A phone held horizontally and level above an open book, with the complete page spread visible in the camera

Set up in three steps

Open your book

Lay the physical book open on a well-lit, uncluttered surface.

Frame both pages

Turn your phone horizontally and position its camera flat above the book. Keep the complete open spread in view, including the page edges. An overhead stand makes this much easier by keeping the view steady and leaving both hands free to turn pages.

Read together

Listen and follow along. Turn the physical page when the narration finishes; BookSprite detects the change automatically.

Optional hands-free setup

Recommended overhead stands

You can hold your phone yourself, but an overhead stand makes the camera easier to align and keeps both hands free for turning pages.
