Manual entry (self-reported)

Opening this pauses the current timer. Resume it yourself after closing. Enter a completed period up to 24 hours. Unsubmitted inputs are not retained; unconfirmed entries retry with the same ID. Overlapping time is merged. Self-reported time does not prove understanding.

Leafhour · Reading prompts

Begin with a question.

Read with a question

What does this section try to answer? Bring your question into the next few pages.

Close the book and use your own words

Look away and try to explain what you just read. One sentence is enough.

Check against the original

Check what the author actually wrote. What is in the text, and what did you infer? Compare difficult sentences with the translation.

Keep an unresolved question

Write a question to return to. With fiction, you can simply keep a scene or feeling.

Questioning, retelling and reviewing textbooks draw on Cornell reading strategies ↗. These prompts are optional; choose what suits your book and pace.

Kept on this device for your return.

Unfinished thoughts

Each draft keeps its source location. Drafts from separate reading pages stay separate and enter your notes only after saving.

One page, then another.

A place to stop for today.

Ending the timer does not mark a chapter as read. Save thoughts and questions separately; check notices for unsent text.
