First two things I didn't like was no adjustment for page turning speed and the second was it was going directly into full screen mode not allowing back button use, but it works and got it on sale free. I haven't checked out all formats it can read, but I recently bought Lithium Pro and it could only read epub format. Perhaps add page tint and texture. Couple more gripes, dark mode has to be set each time app opens versus memory of user setting preferences plus books seem to take long to load up

Hello and thank you for the feedback. The app has some settings in regards to the night mode: from app menu, go to "general" tab, there you can setup night mode interval. In regards to the book formats, it only supports epub for the moment.

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".

Thank you for your feedback. I have updated the app and now the 2.6 version includes also text highlighting + notes. Now there is a section in app menu entitled "highlights & notes" that centralizes all highlights and notes.

Update: 1. Missing lines fixed but right at the bottom of the screen with large blank space at the top. 2. Night mode works great but should darken both menu's when activated (Left). 3. Text brightness is a good idea but should have visible number change when adjusting along with arrows each side for fine adjustments. || I have been generous and upped the rating from 1 🌟 to 4 because you were very quick to respond & supply a quick fix. After you perfect the above it will be a 5 🌟 application.

Hello. I have made an update to the app (2.3) and included your above requests: (1) the space below and above the page depends on the spaces between rows (this is how the book is written), (2) done, (3) done. You can press on the color symbols now and it will increment/decrement the font color). Thanks for your feedback and support!
