Betwyll is a social reading app, developed by an Italian startup in 2016. It relies on interactivity and participation by allowing people to read and comment on texts with brief messages (140 characters long). On Betwyll, people read a text and comment on it by publishing messages that are shared with the other users. Betwyll is designed for mobile devices and it is free to download from App Store and Google Play
