### 5/5 — 是我用过最好的阅读app…

*2026-08-22, version 2.1.7*

看帖子来下载的的，没有想到真的完全超出我的预期.txt和pdf导入都超级方便 不需要自己设置很多东西 而且重要的是界面！真的！
没有广告！非常简洁 有的时候看书看了一半退出到后台隔了半天继续点进去也非常非常流畅不会卡顿 界面什么的都可以自己设置….是我截止目前用过最简洁快捷无广的阅读app了.....🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻很喜欢！

### 5/5 — ？

*2026-07-26*

作者你怎么回事啊 更新最新版本后 以前可以切换多个章节目录。怎么没有了啊 导入进来的书一个章节几百页 刚刚去看了一下有的书可以重新分章节 有的不行。能不能改回来。以前不管导入多少小说都可以分章节

### 5/5 — 简约，方便

*2026-07-15*

简约，方便

### 1/5 — Unable to log out

*2026-04-10, version 2.0.8*

I don’t know how to log out

### 5/5 — 功能全 查字典和网页很方便

*2026-03-05, version 2.0.5*

再接再厉，再创辉煌

### 5/5 — Very good reading app, with a small suggestion.

*2026-01-12, version 2.0.3*

Very easy to use, meets most of my needs. Only two minor areas for improvement.(1) For audiobook playback, you need to tap the audiobook button first, then tap a small play button. Pausing and stopping also require similar steps. Suggestion: Simplify the operation—start playback immediately upon tapping the audiobook button, and streamline pause/stop actions as well.(2) During audiobook playback, allow selecting the starting point by dragging on the page; otherwise, it always starts from the first word of the current page. Suggestion: Modify the audiobook caching mode to enable flexible adjustment of the starting playback time.

### 3/5 — 希望做个一键跳转上次阅读的文档功能

*2025-12-28*

希望做个一键跳转上次阅读的文档功能，我每次打开app想接着上次看的地方还要点文件夹进去选择上次看的文档，如果一天只有一次也就算了，现在我明明没有后台关闭app只是跳出去看了下其他app，再点进来又要重新选择有点烦

### 5/5 — 功能建议

*2025-12-09, version 2.0.1*

整体非常好，希望能在统计中加上听书时间，或者把听书时间也算作阅读时间

### 5/5 — good App

*2025-12-06, version 2.0.1*

This App is very simple I like it

### 5/5 — nice

*2025-11-20, version 1.9.9*

不用开通高级功能就已经够用了，以前在安卓上用的是阅读，换到iOS用这个，反正对于我这种直接从网上下载导入进去的来说非常好用
