A page of dense, looping cursive that is almost impossible to read, how a confusing page can feel. The same page reshaped by ClearPage: generous spacing, a clear typeface, and color anchors on easily-confused letters.

What it does

Math is a reading problem too

Dyscalculia gets almost nothing. Every major reader assumes the problem is words, so notation is left exactly as it was: symbols that look alike, meanings you're expected to already know, formulas no voice reads correctly. ClearPage treats math as part of the page.

A math exercise in ClearPage with color-anchored symbols, and a card explaining that ≤ means less than or equal to.
  • 35 symbols, color-anchored ∈ against ⊂, ≤ against ≥, ℝ against R. Look-alikes get consistent colors so they stop swapping places.
  • Every symbol explained Tap any one for a plain-language meaning card. No prior notation knowledge assumed.
  • Formulas read aloud, correctly Spoken as math, not as a string of characters, so a formula can be heard as well as seen.

New in 2.0: two-dimensional math. Fractions, sums, integrals and derivatives are read as structure instead of being flattened into a line of characters. Select one on the page and go through it piece by piece.

New in 3.0

Summarize and simplify any page

A page about the water cycle in ClearPage, with a three-sentence summary in a sheet below it.
A dense paragraph about photosynthesis rewritten by ClearPage in short, plain sentences.

Some pages are simply too much: too long, or written in words nobody uses. ClearPage can now give you the short version, or the same page in plainer words. Both are written on your device with Apple Intelligence, so the page never leaves your phone.

  • SummarizeThe main points in a few short sentences, about one for each paragraph. Tap the sparkles, or just shake your phone.
  • SimplifyThe whole page again in shorter sentences and everyday words. Nothing is meant to be left out, and the math stays exactly as it was.

Good to know: both appear in your own typeface, spacing and colors, and can be shared or saved. They need an iPhone or iPad with Apple Intelligence; on other devices ClearPage works exactly as before. A summary or a rewrite can miss or change a detail, so the original page is always one tap away.

Made better, together

The redesign

Every screen, redesigned by Markus Christian Schmiedeberg

Twenty-five years in product and communication design. Markus came to ClearPage from the outside, saw what wasn't working, and rethought all of it: the direction, the experience, and every single screen. The app you download today looks and feels the way it does because of him.
