The app is great and well put together. However the brightness adjustement (that is in the apps' settings) is not working properly for me. Sometimes it does working and dragging the finger down really does lower the brightness but recently it has not worked. I don't know why. This feature really helped when reading at night and then during the day. So pleeeeaaaase fix it!!

My go-to book viewer 70-80% of the time. Superior pagination for EZ navigation and excellent image support for illustrations. Poor PDF support is only major flaw, the PDF viewer works, but suffers lack of usability. TTS reader capability could make this THE 5* "Must-Have" eReader app.

The best reading app I've used for android by far. The only real problem I've had is on a new device, for dinner reason is I turn the brightness below 26% the screen will just turn black. Doesn't effect my comfort too much but I would prefer the brightness being lower sometimes.

Fabulous! Ive been using this app for 7 years and i absolutely love it! If I've changed a phone or device I've always downloaded and redownloaded this app. It's my favourite reader.

I've used this app for years and also have the premium version. Very little to no problems. The only thing I would love would be a better way to filter your libraries (eg by % of reading progress)

Have the free version, and I have been quite happy with it until recently where it no longer stores books I've read (ie. Listed in Recently Opened/Recently Added, or even under authors name). I do not want or need the pay for version....but is this a ploy to get me to purchase it? If so.....there are alot of other readers I can use instead.

I love reading, and I love reading my Standard Ebooks and Project Gutenberg ebooks on FB Reader. It's a very simple app, but all the better for that. I've used it for several years on two Android devices, and it's always been flawless. Unless it got borked through some strange upgrade, I wouldn't look elsewhere.

The most amazing thing abt fb reader is you can decrease your brightness along with night mode plus this amazing zoom in/out option... Which I tried in several apps but nada.... This is the best when you're a night owl... I juss luv swipe/Flick which is much better then vertical scrolling.. I hateee vertical scrolling... Tysm fbreader💜💜💜...... Fab since foreva!!!!! Don't change 😭🤧✨💜

I have been using FBR for a long time. It was the go to app for a bookworm like me. Unfortunately had to change my phone, and reinstall all Apps. FBR was the 5th or 6th App downloaded and installed. It simply does not work, it does not identify or add the books, it does not show the books, it has been crashing regularly, and making life miserable in general. At first thought, something wrong with phone, so uninstalled and reinstalled it (thrice). Nutshell, Bye Dodo, it was nice knowing you.

Like others, pretty disappointed with this recent update, which messed up the FB TTS reader plugin's ability to easily work with the main app. I don't have paid version and I'm hesitant to buy premium for the TTS because I liked the free plugin so much. The plugin was nicely customizable and I was able to get the accent and voice exactly how I wanted it. Not sure if I can count on the premium version for the same. Luckily I've been able to still use the plugin with the app, but it's much more tedious to set up, especially if I want to swap tabs and pause or rewind/fast-forward. If any one can let me know if the premium read-aloud is exactly the same as the FB TTS, I would appreciate it. (with access to the google TTS voices and acents) If this isn't fixed or is made worse, I'll have to move to another app for the convenience, though I've yet to find one that has the right amount of customization as the plugin.

The app would not let me to open an .fbr file I already had on my phone. It wanted me to sign up to something where I could download books.

The app itself is good. The UI could be more straightforward, but everything works as expected. One thing bothers me, though. Why on earth would you change the background of the app icon to blue? Almost every other app (including all google apps) on Oreo 8.1 has a white background and only FBReader is gonna stick out like a sore thumb. Why?

Great free app that xan read just about everything. I use the free version because I've seen rather negative reviews for the paid version, and I don't need the read-out-loud part

My go to ebook reader. I used to use google play books and kindle then discovered this and the plethora of great public domain books. Many of the classic adventure novels are in the public domain and tons of other interesting stuff to read. If you want to read a lot of new releases, not sure how this app works for those. But thats not my thing. Also use the TTS plugin along with googles British male voice. It does sound a bit machine-like but it doesn't bother me. It's like my own low tech AI reading to me in a soothing modulated voice. And he's got a British accent, what's not to love about that. Anyway, great app. And great paired with the TTS plugin if you are a person that doesn't get hung up TTS voices not sounding human enough.

The best reader I've ever used. Compact, customizable, reads a lot of file extensions, even CBR and DJVU, supports straight connection to Network Library servers. Honestly, I want to have a child with this app. 😁

I specifically chose this app for the ability to have all my bookmarks available when i needed them. So i'm satisfied with what it offers. I use the app on 2 devices(phone and tablet) and the thing i'd also like to have is the ability to seamlessly resume my reading on the page i left on the other device

It's a nice e-reader with a clean interface and some nice features. The library sorts are fairly intuitive, and the app runs quickly. Handy brightness and font adjustments when reading. I'm frustrated by the fact that the library doesn't seem to update or refresh epub metadata. Whatever you have for author or series metadata when you load the app, you're stuck with even if you change the metadata later (for example, if you have authors with some epub files sorted firstname - lastname and some sorted lastname-firstname, it'll stay that way in FB Reader libraries even if you edit the metadata. Also the only dictionary app I can get to work with FB Reader is Dictan, and that isn't the most user-friendly interface.

This is my favorite e-reader. It's so simple and lets me read my own epubs and pdfs, opening files from a directory browser with no muss and fuss. After many years of using the free version, today I upgraded to premium. very affordable with qualitative and quantifyable benefits. If e-reading is how you get your read on, and your books come from varying sources and in varying formats--FBReader has your back.

DOES NOT have continuous vertical scroll as standard in many apps LIKE "Moon+ Reader", "Lithium reader" & specially "ReadEra" which has the best vertical scroll with cache & not stopping at end of chapters.

Best ebook reader. Thank You !!! Would be great if you can add a category for "Recently added books", that would save a lot of time if someone transferred books from his PC.

Fantastic app. Use it together with ivona voice for the best voice reading. Change the background to an old paper wallpaper and it looks just like a real book background

I have the premium edition and I use the Read Aloud function to 'read' EPUB books while I walk my dog. Some reviewers have compared the premium Read Aloud function unfavorably to the plugin for the free version. I haven't used the separate plugin so I can't speak to that but the Read Aloud function in the premium edition works well. At first the app had a tendency to crash when I tried to configure the Google Text To Speech voices but that seems to have gone away. I find the voices with a UK accent suit me best since the occasional mispronunciation stands out less when all the words are said in a charmingly odd way. My only irritation (and the reason for the missing fifth star) is that the rewind/go back function gets stuck on short sentences. When the button is pressed the app backs up to the previous sentence. If it is quite short there's no way to press the button fast enough to get past it. If the text contains "No. That's not right." you can't back up past the "No."

the app is enjoyable to use. sadly, I can't annotate with it. it does avoid using a lot of RAM & battery which are big problems with other ebook reader apps. I'm not sure how to make the extensions work. they do interest me a lot. point being, i haven't used this app regularly for a very long time. it does make reading free ebook files super enjoyable without having to rely on Amazon to not be a flake. 3.5/5 stars. rounded up because i want good things for this app & it's nice.

Best reading app for eBooks. Used it since 3 years and it's still great. Only four stars because the app keeps asking you for a play store rewie. That popup overlays other menus and plugins and left them unusable sometimes. Second thing is cloud sync only with Google drive. All my books are stored on my nextcloud, why not my reading status too? Sync btw works flawless and fast between multiple devices. You can sync only reading status or complete with books. Simple the best.

Fbreader is a decent basic reader app but navigation of book catalogs isn't straightforward and therefore tedious. This makes the premium version a big improvement. HOWEVER. You will never be able to take this paid app from one device to another should you get a new phone or tablet. The site and developer give useless directions on how to make this happen but in the end they just want another $6. Which is why I can't post this on the premium app with my new phone.

I would give it a 5 if I was able to sync it with a desktop version along with all the highlights. Pretty much a google play books that let's you customize more things.
Janet Story
2020-03-11T18:55:46.444Z
The good: displays covers and other images more or less correctly and allows my own css to override its own settings. This is what I was looking for since the reader I was using has stopped displaying covers and full page images. The bad: it's hard to get into the menu and I can't get rid of the introduction "book". This should not be a start screen; app should open to library like other readers. Also, doesn't look like it supports vertical-align property per epub3.

The app keeps crashing CONSTANTLY since the updates. It's terrible. I've had this app close to 4 years and this has never happened. It's really disappointing. Is there a way to reverse the update or something? Or better still stop the crashing? I've ha deleted and re-downloaded the app three times now.

Free TTS is still there but no longer available through the app. You need to open the TTS plugin which then takes you to your books. 1 star knocked off for hiding TTS. Have used this app for several years. There are other reader apps equally as good but the reliability of the TTS is what I love about this app.

2020-02-27T17:58:22.566Z
Honestly a pretty good reading app that I might revisit. This review is from a trial I did as I was testing several readers. It features a wealth of options including manual margin entry, solid interface customization, and above average formatting. I found no option for continuous vertical scrolling which is a buzzkill for me. It did not initially recognize all books in the storage location, though did still open them if manually navigated to. In my only hour or so trial I had a freeze/crash.

Love the app. I paid for the Pro version because it is so good. My only problem is with the text to speech system. Each time I try to initialize it, it pops up the language selector. Its annoying, but i deal with it all the time on my LONG commutes.
Mihhail Subin
2019-03-14T17:57:48.918Z
I think that adding your own 'read aloud' feature as a paid option while there is a free plugin available, and then preventing that free plugin from appearing on the menu is dishonest and greedy. Update: communication with the TTS plugin has been restored. I have explored other reader options while the plugin was not working, and discovered that it is very difficult to identify the books downloaded via fbreader in other readers (the files have numeric ID instead of book name).

Everything is ok. But. I've ran into a problem. When we highlight a text on Android we can see the features list. One of them is translating. Almost all time we can use the native Google translate. But not using this app. Why should I use the unnoun Dictan? Do you know that no one have a .zd dictionaries in 2k19?

I physically have no way to access the settings to change the font size and there is no answer anywhere online or notification that I need a different app to do so. The app still works but this is beyond frustrating for such a simple problem Edit: thanks to the quick help of the developers, my only frustration is gone and I'm very much enjoying the app now.

Associated with file types that are only supported on the "premium" version. No settings to dissociate the file type from app. Android OS will attempt to open the open the file with this app but nothing happens with the free version. No errors reported, user has to figure out for them selves why the app attempts to open the file and nothing happens.

The best for Text-To-Speech. Please, will be very good for impaired/blind people an option for open next book automatically and continue the TTS with the new book (whithout using the screen). Will be good too a very very big text font size (even one word for the whole screen). Thanks for your job.

Used to used this with the text-to-speach plug-in occasionally to read a document out loud. Unfortunately, it seems the Devs have chosen to disable this TTS function in the free version, & only allow it in the paid version. Therefore I now use @VoiceAloud Reader. Oh well.

My go-to reader. Would have given 5 stars had it not be constantly requiring authentication since the last update. A one-time DENY should stick. I'm not about to change my mind on allowing unrestricted access to my files.

I've been using this for a number of years and find that it works well and is easy to use once you have it set up the way you like. I just use it for books saved to my phone, not syncing on network. I have not used it for PDF books.

2018-11-18T09:42:19.420Z
It's ok. Certain basic functions are missing and need additional plug ins. What's worse, is it can't keep the right book loaded. Switch away and back and it's changed what book is open so you have to reload what you are reading. There are better options.

I really like the app but having bought the premium version it's a shame to discover that if I want it on my new phone I have to purchase it all over again. The FAQs say simply go to the app store and it will be free to download but that's simply not the case and it wants to charge me again. But otherwise this app is excellent!

2019-11-27T16:12:23.928Z
This app just feels dated. Even with my love for old school I can't enjoy the style of the app and the way the books are shown in it. It feels rather like a tool to just somehow get a glimpse of the contents of the fb2 file than a solid app for enjoyable reading.

My absolute favorite ebook reader for the last half a decade, but the most recent update seems to have totally broken it. Often opens the wrong book, will no long read any .mobi files in my library and the search function no longer seems to work.

That's the best app I tried for reading but still there are some things I don't understand. For example, almost all books in .fb2 don't show pics in day mode. Night mode is ok. Maybe I messed up with settings though.

Used for many years version 1.8.xx in my Galaxy Tab 7. Today, I made the mistake to update to this version. It crushes anytime you move from settings back to book or from book back to library and it is a waste of time. I regret ever updating.

Tried loads of readers, none are perfect but for me this is closest. Finds my books automatically (most times). Very customisable Allows me to choose background and text colours to suit my eyes. Doesn't bombard me with adverts. Doesn't hassle me. Works.

I have almost no complaints about the app. But why does it not delete the books fron tge device even when asking to do so? They only disappear from the shelf interface. My ebook directory is full and I need to manually delete them and renember which books I have yet not read.

I would gladly purchase the paid version if I could mark a book as finished reading. Cannot enlarge pages to see more detail in illustrations. I would email devs but comments for paid version indicate the devs do not care about user issues or improvement suggestions.

Awesome. Fast page turning, good dictionary, customisable, fatigue lessening colors, possibility of using volume buttons to turn pages as well. I would make bookmarking more accessible, like a top right tap on page, but its not worth a star off. Still it would be awesome

This app is everything you could want in an eReader. It synchronizes your books and bookmarks to cloud, you can fully customize the look and feel (even allowing custom fonts!), and no in-app ads.

Fantastic app. The best. I read so many books with it. It is highly customizable and has so many features free of charge. Your eyes never hyrt even after hours if reading. A lot better than Kindle. Highly recommend!

Great app with decent text customization, and amazing plugins. I'm using the text-to-speech plugin all the time so I can keep reading the same book while I'm driving! (Instead of switching to an audiobook or podcast.)

The Directory to search for books doesn't really work. It still adds files from other directories to the ones specified. Otherwise the app is better than some others I use.

the update ruined this awesome app for me. After update, I can't change the root folder and scanning ebooks doesn't work. I tried reinstalling the app and I still can't change the root folder so now I can't open any ebook in the app.

I use this a lot,. It's one of the first things I install on a new phone. Has a lot of settings so you can customise it to work and look the way you want. I use the free version with no inconvenience. Great app.

I love this app and use it every day, but it has recently started to randomly switch the font size to very big letters. When I adjust it, it works fine until the app is closed and re-opened. Then the writing is minuscule!
Loren MacGregor

A well-written, well-packaged app that presents text quickly and accurately. Customizing is straightforward and the process is explained well.

Used to be great, now they spam the premium version and the "no, thanks" option is untappable and cannot do anything except exit the app. (and then load a reader that doesnt pull this nonsense). bye byes

I have been using the reader for about four years now and I have never been disappointed for once. I try out different other readers every other month but I finally come back to this one. It is just awesome.

Peter Saulnier
2019-10-31T13:32:02.251Z
Seems competent enough, but doesn't support many popular dictionaries. Also no support for Wikipedia lookup. Would consider buying premium if the context menu was better. For now I'll stick to Moon+.

I paid and upgraded to the premium version a couple of days back. I was able to use the read aloud function the same day. Today I have just not been able to find that function even after wasting so much time! What a waste!

The main use is reading which it does nicely. But if you go back and forth, it has inconsistent pages i.e. the text moves up and down the page the second read through

Not a bad ebook reader. It tries to be true to the publisher CSS, but it fails in parts. Interface is not great looking, page curl animation is ugly. Bookari is a better reading app overall.
Axel Wiklund
2020-02-19T13:12:25.300Z
Can't manage books with book number expressed as decimal as part of a series (short stories happening between books etc), no response from developers when trying to contact them through support email on the subject.

Functional but buggy. In particular, gets stuck on a particular location in a particular book and opens there whatever you do. V annoying.

The best e-book reader. Light and fast. Supports all ebook formats when one installs the pdf and djvu extension. All you need for reading your ebooks

The only reason I give this 4/5 instead of 5/5 is that it's no longer F/OSS. I love the text to speech capability (plugin with 2.x, built-in with 3.0)

My favorite ereader app. Only 4 stars because maximum number of books in Recently Opened will only show 21 books not the 48 which is set. App is updated.
Martin Humphries

Since the last update it pages backwards out of control. The only way i can stop it is turn off the phone. Until this is fixed the app is unusable.

The best eBook reader I've found, with easy access to several free libraries of classics and other books.
Peter Gomberg

Doesn't even read PDF files, tells you to pay $5.99 for the premium version. Even free PDF readers will read PDF files. Uninstalling. Poor pay-to-do-something-free-apps-can-do, implementation.

This application is good for read pdf but I think the application has scan feature so the users don't need to search his PDF. So please create scan feature in this application.
