ArcReader User Reviews

Nice

Looks Great and seems like it has all the features I’d want in something like this, from built in translation software to downloading novels for offline reading, as well as the ability to download some nice voices if you want it read to you. Also seems like it’s reasonably useful for free users too, which is a solid plus.

Could maybe use some more options for voices, some newer translation versions and it doesn’t seem to download novels with the app closed or in the background as best I can tell though, so, four stars for now.

The head dev said there would be no advertisements in the reader… yet guess what!!! there are now!! good stuff buddy nice lies

Response from developer

Sorry for the disappointment. We understand why this feels frustrating. To keep ArcReader sustainable, we introduced limited ads for free users while keeping them as unobtrusive as possible. Premium users can continue to enjoy an ad-free reading experience. We appreciate your feedback and will keep looking for ways to reduce interruptions and improve the experience for everyone.

Novel

Was looking for this type of app having all novel sites on one app like tachiyomi now i can finally read my novel with offline too

Response from developer

Thank you so much! ❤️ We're really happy to hear ArcReader is exactly what you were looking for. Our goal is to make reading novels from multiple sources as easy as possible, with offline reading and lots of customization options.

A reader designed for users!

A polished looking app with plenty of reader friendly features, such as line spacing, margins and font options. Fetching a novel couldn’t be easier, just tap “Add to library” for a novel, and everything will be set up and ready to go. I’ve always wanted a central app that can fetch reading material from different sources. The latest update also includes an e-ink mode and it will make this app perfect on an Android supported e-reader.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! ❤️ We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying ArcReader and its reading customization options. Making it easy to collect and read novels from different sources has always been one of our main goals, so it's great to know it's working well for you.

Great LNreader alternative for IOS

Super clean Claude code UI 🤣 (not hating), has all the essentials and so many sources to pull from. Only critique would be notifications when a chapter updates, maybe some kind of background process that updates novels, essentially little features found on apps like Tachimanga that are the cherry on top.

Thank you for the review! We're glad you're enjoying ArcReader and all the available sources. As for the "Claude code UI" comment... we'll take that as a compliment 😆! Novel update notifications and background library updates are definitely features we're considering for future versions. Thanks for the suggestion and for helping us make ArcReader even better.

Greatest novel app ever

All the other novel apps get put to shame against this one genuinely incredible how thorough and full of features it is along with a clean organized interface. Peak

Response from developer

This means a lot, thank you. Hearing that the features and the interface hit the mark makes it all worth it. I'm always working on new things, so if there's ever something you'd love to see added, I'm all ears. Happy reading.

Thank you

Finally, an app where i can read all the LNs without switching apps for other LNs. Keep this gem alive. 🙏

Response from developer

Thank you so much! That's exactly what we're building ArcReader for, one app for all your light novels. We're not going anywhere, lots of exciting updates coming!

Absolute lifesaver for bookworms!

This app is incredible! It aggregates stories from so many different sources, so I can always find what I’m looking for in one place. The offline download feature works flawlessly—perfect for my daily commute or when I’m traveling without Wi-Fi. Highly recommend!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words! 🙏 We're thrilled to hear that the multi-source library and offline downloads are working great for your commute and travels, that's exactly the experience we designed for. Happy reading, and feel free to reach out anytime if you have suggestions!

Finally a good web novel reader with offline

I used to read on Royal Road and NovelFull's website but it was annoying with no offline mode and many ads. ArcReader lets me download chapters and read offline on my commute with no internet. The text to speech feature is surprisingly good, sounds way more natural than other novel apps I've tried. Dark theme is perfect for reading at night. Already going through my second cultivation novel on here. Highly recommend for anyone into progression fantasy or LitRPG.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! 🙏 We built ArcReader exactly for readers like you — tired of ads and needing offline access on the go. So glad the offline download and TTS are working great for your commute! We put a lot of effort into making the voice sound natural, so it means a lot to hear that. Enjoy your cultivation journey, and if you ever need more sources or have feature requests, we're all ears. Happy reading!
