Make the most of the whole screen when you're reading! Version 12 introduces Full Screen mode, activated by a single tap on the screen. In Navigation Settings you can simplify the play options further.
- Screen Reader View
Version 12 introduces the innovative Screen Reader View, designed to enhance the experience of vision impaired readers. It provides a linear reading mode, optimised for braille readers and screen readers.

Following valuable feedback from readers, version 12 Screen Reader View addresses the frustrations vision impaired readers had when locating their reading position.
- This means no more hassle or wasted time trying to find your place, just reliable continuity when you resume reading. Bookmarking is effortless, so readers can pick up right where they left off without fail.

Additionally, switching between Screen Reader View and the standard Web View is quick and intuitive. This gives readers flexibility to tailor their reading experience

If you'd like a more detailed description, simply ask more questions and it will be instantly provided!

Protect downloads with Dolphin DRM
Many publisher partners have concerns around security of book content and therefore require libraries to ensure distributed content is secure, so that it can’t be used outside the targeted reading system.
Dolphin offers - and encourages library partners use - the Dolphin Digital Rights Management (DRM). This secures the downloaded content on the users’ local device, to prohibit misuse. It means the user is not able to copy large amounts of text to the device’s clipboard.
The Dolphin DRM does not require any backend changes for the library partner, as the protection scheme is applied on the download requests in EasyReader App.
The Dolphin DRM solution is available for downloaded DAISY, EPUB, MP3 audio and other formats on request. Dolphin DRM is currently used by:
- Calibre Audio (UK)
- Passend Lezen (Netherlands)
- Tibi (Norway)
For more information about Dolphin DRM, and to organise this for your library, please contact the team at easyreader@yourdolphin.com
