Books arrive however you have them
Pick an EPUB from your phone and Laiza keeps its own copy, so moving or deleting the original later never breaks the book. Paste a work's address and it downloads with its title, author, word count, chapters and fandom tags already filled in. Or share a link straight from your browser — it waits in Discover rather than downloading unasked.
It reads the way you set it
Page by page or one continuous scroll. Font, size, spacing, margins and page colours, set once for everything or overridden for a single book. It reopens exactly where you stopped, and once it has watched you read for a while it starts telling you how long is left in the chapter.
There is a reading-aloud mode that keeps going with the screen off.
Highlights that survive a rewrite
Highlight in as many colours as you like, and name them for what they mean to you — a favourite line, a ship moment, something you think is foreshadowing.
When an author edits an earlier chapter of a work in progress, the text you marked shifts. Laiza remembers the words around each highlight, not just where it sat, and finds it again in the new version. If a passage is rewritten past recognition the highlight is kept and flagged, never quietly dropped.
Shelves you can close
Any shelf can be marked hidden. Its books then leave the library, the search results, the continue-reading row and your highlights until you unlock them with a fingerprint or a PIN. The app itself still opens without a lock — only the shelf is private.
Yours to take with you
One backup file holds every book, cover, highlight, note, bookmark, review, shelf and reading position. You choose where it goes, and it is never uploaded anywhere. That file is how a library moves to a new phone.
