You love your X4 for reading.
Getting files onto it? Not so much.

CrossPoint Sync makes it simple. Connect your iPhone to your reader over WiFi, and from there you can send books, articles, and even custom sleep images — all without plugging in a single cable.

Everything you need to get the most out of your reader.

Connect Easily

Enter your reader's IP address and you're connected. No accounts, no pairing codes.

Manage Your Files

Browse, create folders, and delete files on your reader — all right from your phone.

Queue Files Offline

Queue up files whenever you want. They'll sync automatically when your X4 is in range.

Send Multiple Files at Once

Queue up as many files as you like. You'll see real-time progress for each one, and if anything hiccups, the app retries automatically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work with my CrossPoint reader as-is?

Absolutely — no special setup, no custom firmware, nothing extra. Just download the app on your iPhone and connect it to your CrossPoint device. It works right out of the box.

Is the web clipper Safari-only?

For now, the built-in article clipper runs as a Safari extension — that's where you'll get the one-tap "save to reader" experience. That said, you can still send EPUBs from any app on your phone using the iOS Share button. We're looking into supporting more browsers down the road.

Is my data safe?

Your privacy is baked in by design. Everything stays on your device — there are no servers, no accounts, and no tracking. When you clip an article, the app reads that one page locally and sends it straight to your reader. Nothing else leaves your phone. And since the app is fully open source, you don't have to take our word for it.

Is there an Android version?

Not yet, but it's something we'd love to do. Android support is on the roadmap — stay tuned.

Does it work on macOS?

It does! If you have a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or later), you can install the iOS app directly from the Mac App Store. It works surprisingly well on the big screen too.

Is the app free?

Completely free — no catch. There are no accounts to create, no subscriptions, and no in-app purchases. Just download it and start syncing.

Why isn't my custom sleep background showing?

After uploading your sleep background, make sure you go to Settings and set the Sleep Screen option to "Custom." This is a one-time step — once enabled, any new images you upload will automatically be used.
