Magnificent, soothing design!!

Yes to no-paywall, no dark patterns, so refreshing. You are the OG! Have a donate button.

Why is the iOS 17 version crippled?

I downloaded the app in iOS 17.11.7 as the is the max version that my iPad support.
The app show the introductory text but it is FRUSTRATINGLY impossible to select any other reading material. The icon for selecting text is not there. I also have downloaded in my recent iPhone and it runs beautifully. Please make the text selection icon or an alternative menu available in a more full screen gui.
I wonder if these are apple tactics to silently obsolete old hardware.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! Enjoy!

Amazing

Love the app. The UX is almost perfect. First app like this that is doable for ebooks. Just have a few small issues that I think would make a little more usable. It would be great if long words showed on the screen a little longer. Especially in fantasy novels a new name just flashes across and you don’t have time to absorb it. Second, it seems like it doesn’t detect chapter breaks but it could be the book I’m reading. But there should be some sort of pause or something so you know it’s a new scene. Also long dashes cause multiple words on the screen at the same time and “…” after a word shows each dot as a separate word.
