Decent. Good price, but very limited

This is an EPUB first app. PDFs are so limited that they have practically 0 features. Not even basic things like text selection or search. I only read books and never annotate so this isn’t a major issue, but to not be able to search words or select text is very limiting. Despite this limited functionality with PDFs I still use it because it’s PDF function is great even with large textbooks on an old device such as mine, while many others lag while pinching an zooming. Sync is only available via iCloud and Dropbox and no other services which I find further limiting. The price is more than fair. My main issue is that it crashes on my iPad every time when I open it as it’s trying to sync. Same goes for my phone so now I am unable to even open the app. Until this major bug is fixed, I have no choice but to go back to Apple Books

Free reader that works!

Ebook app that supports popular book text format without the price tag for admission. Simple enough to use as it should be. Some may have fancy page turning animation and some cool features but do we really need most of those features?

Love it — Incredible Developer

Still one of the best readers out there, clean, fast, and a pleasure to use daily. I left a review a while back asking for customizable accent colors, and the developer actually added blue and pink options in a recent update. It’s rare to see a developer this responsive, and it makes the app feel truly personal now. Thank you for listening and keep up the great work!

Fantastic

This is the first e-reader app for my iPad that actually formats books correctly. It is such a joy to read with proper margins, indentations, and subheadings. It’s so easy to use, notes and highlighting work perfectly, and there’s no ads. Highly recommend!!

Excellent epub reader

The app works well. I have downloaded mange epubs and they flow well in the app. Changing the layout (almost) always works. It spreads across devices seamlessly.
