Readsome2 is an update of the older version of Readsome:
"an iOS highly-customizable text reader for people affected by dyslexia or for whoever has problems at reading"
The first version of the app has been built in the context of the iOS Foundation Program at the University of Salerno, Italy. The update consists in the implementation of CloudKit framework to enable the use of iCloud and much more functionalities, on the UI and the UX, on which I'm working on.

Readsome2 needs CocoaPods to be installed on your computer to be downloaded and compiled in Xcode.
Readsome2 is being developed only by me, Fabrizio Sorgente, but the first version has been built by Aniello Carotenuto, Miriam Grasso, Antonio Mazzini, Rosa Russo and me. It also relies on two external packages: Tesseract-OCR-iOS by gali8 and ActionSheetPicker-3.0 by skywinder. Readsome also uses OpenDyslexic and TestMe02 fonts.
