About this app

Liseur is an open-source EPUB books reader for Android, and a client for calibre-web and Komga: a modern reader that is equally at home with the files on your phone and with your own book server.

👀 Reading * Paginated EPUB rendering through the Readium toolkit, full screen by default * Tap right to go forward, left to go back, the middle for the controls; volume keys work too * A whole page always fits the screen, with no stray scrolling to catch the last line * Four reading themes (Light, Sepia, Dark, Black), independent of the app's own theme * Four bundled open fonts or the publisher's own, plus size, line spacing, margins and brightness * Time left in the chapter, time left in the book, page or percentage, and a scrubber with chapter ticks

🪧 Marking up and looking up * Highlights in four colours, notes, and bookmarks with a corner ribbon * A notebook of everything you marked in a book, exportable as Markdown * Search the whole book, with snippets and jump-to highlighting * Definitions for any selected word, or a hand-off to an offline dictionary app. Online lookups are off until you turn them on, and you choose which Wiktionary edition or mirror answers them

📚 Your library * Index folders of EPUBs, covers and all * Books you are using sort to the front; finished ones get a tick * Pull to refresh picks up whatever changed behind the app's back

🌐 Your own server * calibre-web: one screen sets it up with URL, username and password, and Liseur works out the catalog, download rights and sync token * Komga: paste the server address and an API key * Your server's books merge into the same library with a cloud badge; tap one to download and open it * Reading positions sync both ways, through calibre-web's Kobo protocol or Komga's read-progress API * Remove the copy on the device, or delete the book from the server

🎉 Free software * No trackers, no analytics, no proprietary dependencies. The only network traffic is to the book server you configured and, if you switch online definitions on, to the dictionary site you chose.

What's new

v0.14.0Sep 2, 2026

Version 0.14.0 gives you more control over typography and navigation, while making reading statistics useful across time periods and devices.
●Reading ・Fine-tune alignment, hyphenation, font weight, and letter, word, and paragraph spacing. Settings that a fixed-layout book cannot use are now disabled instead of appearing to do nothing (#122, #141).
・Tap the page number or percentage in the reader to jump directly to a position, with the current value selected in the dialog (#118, #127).
・Find reading appearance and navigation controls on their own settings screen (#131).
・Keep selected text readable in the Dark and Black themes (#119).
・Compare reading time with the matching part of the previous week, month, or year. Statistics now use calendar-aligned periods, show whether figures cover this device or all devices, and include books known only to the server (#116, #124, #130, #143).
・Choose whether to keep the server's position, keep this device's position, or cancel when a manual sync finds a conflict (#129).
●Library ・Books without a declared cover can use an embedded image named cover for their shelf artwork (#135).
●Fixes ・Keep search results and the contents list clear of the on-screen keyboard and display cutouts. ・Stop offering an upload after the server has already refused that book (#134).
