Stable source reading with inline smoothing
Tap a dense phrase, clarify it in place, and keep going.
Android app
Find the article. Keep the reading.
Smoothie is built around the part that matters after discovery: staying with the piece. It keeps ready-to-read picks waiting in a calm feed, opens in stable Original mode, and adds Optimized reading, inline smoothing, translation-aware clarity, and auto-scroll only when they genuinely help.
Discovery feed
Original by default
Optional Optimized
Inline smoothing
Auto-scroll
Discovery-first
Feed candidates are fetched, ranked, and preloaded before you tap.
Source-first
Original mode remains the stable default reading surface.
Assistive, not noisy
Optimization, smoothing, focus cues, and auto-scroll are optional tools.
Product
One path from finding to finishing.
Smoothie now behaves like one reading system instead of a pile of import utilities. Discovery, ingestion, reading, smoothing, and optimization fit together so the app can prepare articles ahead of time and still keep the reader steady once you are inside.
Feeds that turn into readable picks
Curated sources, topic-aware ranking, trusted-source boosts, and prefetched articles ready in the Home feed.
Manual intake still stays nearby
Search, clipboard, and file import remain available without becoming the main experience.
Built to help the article land
Article understanding, optional optimization, alternate layouts, and smoothing all exist to improve comprehension, not to overwhelm the page.
The reader stays grounded in the article.
Smoothie opens in Original mode by default. Optimized can prepare a better-structured version when it is worth it, and alternate layouts stay available as optional tools rather than replacing the main reading flow.
Original
Stable source reading, paragraph rhythm, inline smoothing, translation-aware smoothing, and auto-scroll support.
Optimized
A best-reading version of the article when structure genuinely helps, without forcing every section into a gimmick.
Alternates
Secondary layouts generated only on demand for scanning, comparison, or actionability.
Clarify a dotted term or a selected phrase in place, with safer insertion and calmer animation.
Choose a smoothing language and get the clarification in that language while preserving the source anchor.
Prompter-style reading in Original mode with adjustable WPM and accumulated reading time.
Quiet recovery, checkpoint, and rescue prompts that can be turned off entirely.
Architecture
Discovery, reading, and local state all reinforce each other.
Smoothie ranks and prefetches discovery picks, stores reading progress and smoothed text locally, and only calls external models for things that materially improve understanding.
Preferences, progress, smoothed text, and cached reading artifacts stay on device.
Smoothing, search-generated reads, article understanding, optimization, and alternates are called only when needed.

Trust
Clear enough for users. Solid enough for app-store review.
Smoothie stores reading state locally, supports optional external AI requests when a feature needs them, and is not built as a tracking or advertising product.
