A whole library of free books — built right in.
Discover lets you search thousands of free, legal, public-domain ebooks and audiobooks from the web's most trusted libraries, and add any of them to your shelf with a single tap. No account, no fees, no catch — these are works whose copyright has expired, free for everyone to keep.
iPhone · Free · No account required
From a title in your head to a book in your hand.
Three taps, no sign-up, nothing to figure out.
Search one place
Type a title or author and Quillstone searches all three libraries at once, ebooks and audiobooks side by side.
Tap once
Pick a book and it downloads straight into your library — the ebook ready to read, the audiobook ready to play.
Read or listen
Open it in the calm Quillstone reader, or press play and listen on the lock screen, in Control Center, and in CarPlay.
Three trusted libraries, one search.
Every title comes from a respected public-domain collection — no piracy, no grey areas.
Project Gutenberg
More than 75,000 free ebooks — the classics and then some, hand-checked and in the public domain.
Standard Ebooks
The same public-domain works, lovingly re-typeset by volunteers so they read as beautifully as a new edition.
LibriVox
Thousands of free audiobooks, read aloud by volunteers. Whole novels, chapter by chapter, ready to play.
Featured free books.
A handful of classics you can add in one tap — and millions more inside the app.

Discover only ever shows public-domain works — books whose copyright has expired. No DRM, no lending limits, no contested catalogs. What you download is yours to keep, read, and listen to, on every device.
Private like the rest of Quillstone
There's no account and nothing to track. Your downloads live in your own library, and optional end-to-end-encrypted iCloud sync keeps it with you across your devices — readable only by you.
One calm home for what you read and hear
Discover sits alongside the rest of Quillstone: The Early Bird, your roughly fifteen-minute morning news briefing corroborated across newsrooms; a clean reader for the EPUBs and audiobooks you already own; chapter navigation, adjustable speed, a sleep timer, and CarPlay. Trusted news in the morning, free books for the rest of the day — in one private, offline-first app.
