### 1/5 — Зря обновился

*2022-04-05, version 1.6*

После обновления появились рекламы 
И они не дают даже открыть книгу 
Верните старую версию 
Я часто пользовался а теперь нет 
Бесят рекламы они везде

Добрый день Можно добавить масштаб для чтения ?

### 1/5 — Недоработано

*2022-01-25, version 1.0*

Очень неудобно, что нельзя изменить шрифт, очень мелко, и нельзя оставить закладку, потом непонятно как найти, на чем остановился

### 1/5 — Настройки

*2022-01-23, version 1.0*
