New in v3.2.0

The biggest Sozo update yet.

Scroll through what changed. Every screen is the real app.

Light novels

Read, not just watch.

284 novel sources in 16 languages from the LNReader and Mangayomi ecosystems — one tap adds them all. Royal Road, Wuxia World, NovelFire, Scribble Hub and hundreds more.

Book mode

Pages that turn like paper.

The chapter is laid out into real pages and turns with a page curl. It carries on into the next chapter and keeps your place when you change the type.

Your typography

Four papers. Your type.

Dark, Black, Sepia and Light. Text size, line spacing, Serif or Mono, margins and alignment — saved for every book.

Read aloud

Close your eyes. Keep reading.

Sozo reads sentence by sentence, highlights what it is saying and turns the page itself. Speed, voice and a sleep timer included.

Profiles

Everyone gets their own.

Up to four profiles with their own history, lists and Home. A PIN if you want one, and a kids mode that keeps 18+ off.

Achievements

Every day, a new medal.

Bronze to Ember medals, streak flames from 7 to 365 days and a showcase on your profile. Tilt a medal — or double-tap and flip it like a coin.

Sources

Extensions that actually load.

Browse any source before you switch. Aniyomi, CloudStream 4.8, Mihon, Mangayomi and Jellyfin — with health badges that tell you what works.

Everything in one place

Built for the way you watch — and read.

▶️

A player built for bingeing

Quality you choose and it remembers, seek-bar previews, Up next, Anime4K and picture-in-picture.

📚

Manga & light novels

A manga reader with volumes and translation groups, and a novel reader with Book mode and read-aloud.

📺

Live TV

Channels with a now/next guide that reconnect by themselves and play like a broadcast.

🧩

1,000+ sources

CloudStream, Aniyomi, Mihon, Mangayomi, LNReader and your own Jellyfin — switch in a tap.

🔔

Never miss an episode

Follow a title for rich notifications, a New releases feed and optional auto-download.

🔗

Tracks everywhere

AniList, MyAnimeList and Trakt — with import, scrobbling and retries when you are offline.

👥

Watch together

Watch Party keeps everyone in sync, and friends see what you watch and read — if you want.

🔒

Private by design

Encrypted tokens, an app lock that nothing slips past, incognito, and DNS-over-HTTPS.

One app, everywhere

Start on your phone. Finish on the TV.

History, lists and progress follow you across every device you sign in on.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Is Sozo free?

Yes — completely. No ads, no subscriptions, no paywalls. The code is open source on GitHub.

Which platforms are supported?

All six: Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux and Android TV. On iPhone and iPad, Sozo installs as an .ipa with AltStore, SideStore or Sideloadly — the download page walks you through it.

Is it safe to install?

Every build is produced by CI from the public source and published with SHA-256 checksums. Desktop builds are not code-signed yet, so your OS may warn you once — the installation help explains what to click.

How do I read light novels?

Open Profile → Sources → Novels → Add source and tap LNReader. 284 sources arrive at once. Or open any light novel from AniList and tap Find a source.

How do updates work?

Sozo tells you when a new version is out and updates in place. You can always get the latest build here.

Where does the content come from?

Sozo is a client. It runs extensions and sources you choose and hosts no content itself.
