Original Summary

App Name: Tepado One‑Line Description: A lightweight, 3.6MB offline document reader designed for low-end phones that extracts text via on-device OCR and reads files aloud with your screen off. What It Does / Key Features: Podcast Mode (Screen-off Audio): Reads your TXT files aloud using native Android TTS so you can study while commuting without draining your battery. 100% Offline OCR & Instant Jump: Scans physical pages directly to editable text entirely on your device via unbundled ML Kit (zero internet required), with a one-tap shortcut to open and listen to the extracted text immediately. PDF Bookmarks & Quick Navigation: Bookmark essential pages with a single tap, stored in an ultra-fast local Room database with a quick-jump dialog. Extreme Memory Optimization (3.6 MB): Uses the native Android PDF renderer and caches only 3 pages in RAM at a time to prevent Out-Of-Memory crashes on budget hardware. Tactile Haptic Feedback: Subtle, native micro-vibrations for bookmarking, Pomodoro toggles, and OCR completion that respect your system battery settings. Integrated Pomodoro & Quick Notes: Built-in study timer alongside a distraction-free notepad to take chapter notes and export them straight to WhatsApp or email. First-Class Accessibility (TalkBack): Thoughtfully structured with prioritized semantic traversal (toolbars first, then page controls, then document text) so screen reader users never get trapped behind walls of text. Who It’s For: Students dealing with heavy reading loads on crowded public transit, older adults seeking clear contrast and zero bloat, and anyone who wants a private, fast reading tool without signups or tracking. Cost: Pricing model: Freemium Prices & billing period: Free with non-intrusive banner ads (strictly capped so they never disrupt reading flow), plus an optional ~$5.00 one-time in-app purchase to remove ads permanently. No recurring subscriptions. Links: Google Play: Tepado Additional Notes (Optional): I’m a law student from Chile and built this to survive heavy textbook readings on older phones. Languages & UI Note: Tepado is fully translated and available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Since Spanish is my native language, the internal app UI shown in the screenshots is in Spanish, but the app will automatically display in English or Portuguese according to your device's language settings. Technical transparency note: Tepado does not support inline PDF text highlighting or annotations. Supporting direct PDF edits would require embedding heavy third-party C++ engines (like PDFium), which would inflate the APK size to 40MB+ and degrade low-end performance. Tepado is built purely as a high-speed reader, not an editor. I would be truly grateful if you could try it out and share your honest feedback with me. As a solo developer, your thoughts mean the world and help me keep improving the app   submitted by   /u/SailFew7722 [link]   [comments]
