Designed for the reading itself

The useful parts of a reading app. None of the ceremony.

Open a local file or an HTTPS PDF and begin. Easy Reader keeps the document, annotations, bookmarks, and progress together—right in Chrome.

01

Mark naturally

Select text or use a continuous pen. Choose from four useful colors, erase by position, and undo an entire highlight in one step.

Highlight · draw · undo
02

Never lose the thread

Named bookmarks take you to a precise position. Your page, in-page location, and zoom level are restored automatically.

Bookmarks · resume
03

Navigate the real outline

Keep the PDF's original hierarchy, expand sections, jump between chapters, and resize the outline to fit the document.

Outline · chapters
04

Share the sentence

Turn a highlight into a polished 1080 × 1440 quote card with surrounding context and a discreet document watermark.

Inside Easy Reader

A reading desk, not another dashboard.

Every surface is tuned around a PDF: a calm library before reading, precise tools while reading, and just enough context when you return.

Your offline shelf

Start with your own library.

Drop in a PDF and find it again by recent reading activity. The file stays available offline in this browser.

The browser is the boundary

Your reading history is yours.

PDFs, annotations, bookmarks, reading progress, and preferences remain in your browser. Easy Reader has no account system, no advertising, and no usage analytics.

01 Local PDFs are stored in the extension's offline library.
02 Online PDFs are requested directly from the site you choose.
03 No document or annotation is sent to an Easy Reader server.

Good to know

Before you open your first PDF.

Does Easy Reader upload my PDF?

No. Local PDFs and reading data stay in your browser. For an online PDF, Chrome requests the file directly from the site you selected after you grant access to that site.

Can I read without an internet connection?

Yes. PDFs added to your local library remain available offline, together with their highlights, bookmarks, and saved reading position.

Which PDFs can I open?

Use the file picker or drag and drop a local PDF. You can also open a public HTTPS PDF from the current tab or from a PDF link's context menu after granting site-specific permission.

Is Easy Reader available now?

Yes. Easy Reader is now available on the Chrome Web Store and can be installed directly in Chrome.

Now on the Chrome Web Store

Read slowly. Mark freely. Come back easily.
