About Software Sil
Reading App Builder is a software tool developed by SIL Global, a faith-based nonprofit organization. It is designed to help language communities create customized reading applications for smartphones. The primary goal is to facilitate literacy in local languages by integrating text and audio, highlighting phrases as they are read. This tool allows for the creation of numerous apps that can be distributed without requiring internet access, addressing the need for accessible literacy resources in various contexts, particularly in regions with increasing smartphone availability. The development began in 2014 as an international effort, with the first public release in April 2016. The software is free to use and supports the creation of Android and iOS apps. To facilitate app building, it requires the installation of Java and Android development kits. The company also offers related tools like the aeneas audio-text synchronization tools and provides comprehensive documentation and support through its community forums and a ticket system for bug reports and assistance.
