Ratings and reviews

It's nice reader for reading ebooks you own from your local drive. Most good features are available: night mode, bookmarks, jump to page, text to speech, etc. There are some free books from the internet (mostly classics) but you can't search for them; you have to scroll all coz you can only search your own library. The free copies are okay but some words are joined (ex: thecat, absorball, beenabandoned). Would love it if we can highlight specific phrases and if there's a centralized "notebook".

Crashes on book import 100% of the time if books are on external storage (yes permission was given) . Cannot save to external storage. No true dark theme. Does not recognize that Google TTS is already installed and enabled. Incredibly, slow at loading books. Words joined together (does not happen in other readers.). Plus other annoyances and issues. Sorry, but not really a very usable reader at this stage. It gets a 2nd star for having some potential.

I saw this app recommended on Blind Android Users. I bought, tried to read with a screen reader, but the app turned out to be totally inaccessible. I tried to add it to the family library, but I get an error message that says: "Failed to add to family library". In other words, a total failure. Ready to uninstall.
