Importing your own EPUB
Bring your own EPUB into Lexxio from the desktop app, and it drops you straight into the reader.
Por ahora las guías se publican en inglés. El resto del sitio está disponible en español.
Overview
Importing lets you read a book you already own inside Lexxio, with the same translation and vocabulary tools as everything else in your library. It's available on the Mac and Windows apps, and it doesn't need a plan.
File format
EPUB is the only format Lexxio can import. TXT, PDF, and MOBI files aren't supported. If your book is in one of those formats, you'll need to convert it to EPUB before importing.
How to import
- Open the Library screen.
- Click Import EPUB.
- Pick your file in the dialog that opens.
Lexxio parses the text and breaks it into sections, then takes you straight into the reader once it's done.
What happens to the file
Lexxio keeps a local copy of the original EPUB alongside your book, so it can be included in a backup of your library.
What a plan adds
Importing is free for your first 30 days, and every paid plan keeps it after that. A plan also buys AI translation and the reading tools built on it, so during the free trial you can bring a book in and read it, but not translate it. See Lexxio's plans and what each one includes for what each plan includes.
Not on desktop
Import only exists in the Mac and Windows apps. On mobile, bring your books over by syncing from desktop instead. See Getting books onto your phone.
