Great reader
I really appreciate the ability to organize my books into folders, everything works very well, and it is fast to use

Best Reading App
I love this app so much, the free version works great, and the one time payment for the paid version is even better. Could not ask for a better reading app.

Great design, poor performance and stability
Great design with the vibes of previous Apple Books versions.
However, the epub rendering engine is not properly implemented: I often see a blank screen when opening a book (a forced app restart helps), jumping to a footnote may take a few seconds, and there is no total number of pages or adequate progress bar. These are all features that worked fine on native reader apps 15 years ago on that hardware (e.g., Kindles or iPads), so I do not believe it should be a big challenge for modern hardware.
I still give five stars to support the developer and acknowledge the clean design and UI of the app, but I really wish the developer would put more effort into the rendering engine's code quality.

The Best App for Reading
This is way better than the default iBooks app because it allows me to import books via OPDS and also allows for a lot of customisation within the reader itself. There are no annoying ads or pop ups when you are reading. Highly recommended

Great app
Just started using this app. Like the nice simple UI, tagging and metadata editing support.
