静阅

静阅 means "quiet reading" – a calm reading app for bedtime

Hacker News

Hi HN, I’m an indie developer and I built an app called *静阅 (JingYue)* because I wanted a calmer reading experience before bed. Most reading tools push feeds, recommendations, endless scrolls and notifications. I wanted something that felt closer to flipping through a book — quiet, simple, and relaxing. So I made 静阅: • curated calm reading content — quotes, images, short essays • dark and light adaptive themes optimized for night time • no notifications, no algorithmic feeds, just relaxed reading • designed to help you slow down your mind before sleep The app is live on the App Store here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/静阅/id6758232981 It’s very early and opinionated; I’d love feedback — especially on UX for night time reading and content pacing. Thanks!
