About this app

Tired of overloaded “combine” interfaces in popular e-readers? Did you just want to comfortably read and translate words in one click? No unnecessary junk, just text and the right tools!

What's inside:

• The engine is written without WebView, pages turn smoothly. • Online tools. I highlighted the text and immediately translated it (Google) or looked up the meaning in the dictionary (Wiktionary / Free Dictionary). • Formats: EPUB, FB2, FB2.ZIP, TXT. • Visual: Light, dark and cream themes. Support for custom fonts (.ttf/.otf), adjusting indents. • The library is completely local, there are no servers.

Russian interface: Yes

What's new

v1.5.0Jun 25, 2026
  • Read aloud (TTS) • Choice of voiceover engine: Google, RHVoice, eSpeak, any installed. • Player on the lock screen and in the curtain. Book cover, pause, stop, sleep timer with countdown. You can stop reading without unlocking your phone. • Pauses during a call and when the headphones are turned off, continues after the call. • Honestly: the play/pause button on the headset does not always work; the phone sometimes gives it to another player. Control from notification.
  • Book storage • You can read books directly from your folder without copying them inside the application. Saves memory on a large library. Switchable in settings.
  • Library • Grouping by authors and series. • Alphabet ribbon on the right for quick letter jumping. Works to sort by author, title and series. • Double page spread in landscape orientation, for tablets. • Bulk selection of files during import, import directly to an open shelf.
  • Fonts • Adding in batches and from a ZIP archive, rather than one at a time.
  • Other • The screen no longer turns off while reading. • Covers have been compressed into WebP, the library and import have become faster. • Fixed duplicates when re-importing, security of unpacking archives, language reset when rotating the screen, footnotes and a bunch of little things.
