User reviews

Great except zooming

I love the concept and the experience using it, but the pages don’t reflow properly when the text is enlarged. You loose lines at the top and bottom of the page. With the default font size, its difficult to read comfortably. Nevertheless, the app is otherwise great, and will become my primary reading app once the issue is fixed.

Made me want to read again!

I have had some issues with skipping lines or reading the same line again and the colour coding has solved that annoying issue immediately.

Thanks for making this app, I love the idea and particularly enjoy it with a dark background. Hope my review helps spread this idea!

Update fixed issue with epub loading

Now we're cooking! Works great!
