Storytape is an ecosystem for creating and reading interactive stories and books. Images, text, music and voiceover — all inside a single .story file, ready to gift, send, or keep.

"I'm not trying to compete with the giants. I'm just making something I'd want to use myself — for fellow old romantics."

About the project

Storytape is two apps united by one idea: creating stories and reading them. The .story format is a ZIP archive you can send to a friend via any messenger or keep on a USB stick.

One file — the whole story

Images, text, music, page voiceover. All packed into a single .story.

Music and voiceover

Global music plays on loop. Page audio ducks it down and plays once.

FB2, TXT, EPUB

The player reads not only .story, but also regular e-books.

No internet needed

No accounts, no clouds, no subscriptions. Everything stays on your device.

Things you can gift. Things that will stay with you even if the internet goes down tomorrow. No trackers, no analytics, no "recommendations". Just you, your book, and a quiet evening.
