### 5/5 — 最最好用的阅读软件！

*2026-08-20*

界面很干净清爽，几乎所有功能都可以自定义，并且开发者一直在根据用户的意见改进更新，能感受到团队对产品的用心，所以更新版本都几天或者一周就抬上来一次。真的非常尊重用户反馈，我周日提的建议被看到了今天就新增了功能！希望这个软件能被更多人看到！

### 5/5 — some language localization issues; otherwise stellar

*2026-08-19*

i have been searching for an epub reader that meets all my needs for ages and am ecstatic to have finally found this one. super underrated. i like that it resizes text by discrete font size rather than just having a continuous sliding scale and that you can see the page number and pick between whether it shows you your progress for the chapter or full text. the interface is also quick and responsive and i like the little book character that shows up when you upload an epub. very cute.

my only issues are that there are some parts of the app that have not been translated to english/optimized for devices outside of china and the turn page via volume option does not work (it conflicts with the actual volume functionality; i think the app needs a way to disable the usual volume button outcome). but neither of these have really impacted my personal user experience at all

### 5/5 — 也是用了几年了

*2026-08-12*

见证了许多次更新，我还是学生，经济比较紧张，所以没有开通专业版，一些新功能体验不到，但是普通版也非常够用了，我打算等下个月兼职工资发下来后，开通一个专业版支持一下，拜托可千万别倒闭啊🙏

### 5/5 — 希望给pdf和漫画添加笔记功能

*2026-08-10*

如题

### 5/5 — Very useful product

*2026-07-25*

Great app.  Very functional, one time purchase for full product.  Does what it says it will do.  I recommend.

### 4/5 — Ótimo, mas a sincronização é limitada.

*2026-07-19*

O app é bom em ferramentas, design e autonomia na leitura (fontes, configurações dos ebooks, etc) mas uma pena é que ele é limitado ao iCloud Sync e ao iOS. Se tivesse melhor portabilidade como os seus concorrentes seria com certeza um nota 10! Mesmo que não seja do interesse dos devs atuar no Android ou Windows/Linux, ainda assim seria interessante o salvamento de arquivos via WebDAV (não somente importação) e sincronização de leitura via KOSync, dando autonomia para o usuário fazer a portabilidade de seus dados para onde o app não alcança em outros dispositivos.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-06-04, version 3.3.16*

My go-to place for any comics that I want to read and store!

### 5/5 — Android

*2026-05-29, version 3.3.15*

Is there an Android version or any other version available?

### 1/5 — Deleted all books

*2026-05-08*

I’ve used this app for a while trusted it so much that I deleted other back ups of books which I had elsewhere for storage. Yesterday I downloaded the new update and it deleted every single book that I had downloaded and all my reading data.

**Developer response:** Sorry, you can simply restart the software to restore it, as the system was busy due to a database upgrade.

### 5/5 — 谢谢

*2026-05-06*

A wonderful app. You can upload your own fonts for books. Great design. The developers continuously improve the app and respond to suggestions for improvement. In my opinion, it is one of the best apps on the market.

一款非常出色的应用。可以为书籍上传自定义字体。设计优秀。开发者不断改进应用，并会回应改进建议。在我看来，这是市场上最好的应用之一。
