Comments on ArcReader: Web Novel Reader for Android

★★★★★ Chizoba · Aug 11, 2026
Great... It has a library that makes it easier to arrange under different categories. It also has different sources like freewebnovel, novel arrow, and published book sources... But I would like Arc Reader to look into one minor problem: Sites like web novel and novel cat are available to save as sources but the novels aren't accessible... the chapters are inconsistent and scattered... please look into it buh except from that... 5 stars... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
★★★★★ vincenzo 9808 · Jun 22, 2026
5 Star!! Hooray! Why? If you ask me, I'll rank this the Top-1 reader so far I've got. Pros: - No Forced Ads. - Get Coins for free, download chapters for free for offline read. - Unlimited Library, Unlimited reading. - Free good TTS. - Free hands-free chapter scroll feature. - No Login required but I'll recommendations login. - Community to talk with other readers and even Devs!! - Add your own source to read from! Big W take! Cons? This is new app. Just that And much more.
★☆☆☆☆ Walter Fisher · Jul 1, 2026
App works ok but, read aloud speed tops out at 2x. Sounds like reading in slow motion.

Description by Not A Simple Studio Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Read web novels and light novels offline — anywhere, anytime. Paste any novel link, download every chapter, and start reading. No account, no paywall to begin.

ArcReader is the offline-first web novel reader and light novel reader for Royal Road, NovelFull, AllNovel, and dozens more sources. Bring your own link and we handle the rest — progression fantasy, xianxia, cultivation, LitRPG, isekai, romance, or any English web novel and light novel.

Loved by readers switching from Wattpad, WebNovel, and light novel reader apps like LNReader for a quieter, faster, offline novel reading app.

WEB NOVEL & LIGHT NOVEL READER BUILT FOR LONG SESSIONS
Pick from four themes (Light, Dark, Sepia, Black AMOLED). Adjust font size, line spacing, font family, and margins. Switch between paginated mode with page-turn animation or smooth continuous scroll — a clean novel reader made for readers.

TURN ANY NOVEL INTO AN AUDIOBOOK
Built-in neural text-to-speech (TTS) turns any web novel or light novel into an audiobook — running entirely on your device. No internet, no data cost, no monthly fee for the core feature. Adjustable speed 0.75x–2x, lock-screen controls, sleep timer, and auto-advance between chapters. Listen to novels hands-free anywhere.

OFFLINE-FIRST READING
Downloaded novels stay on your device in a real local library — not a temporary cache. Read offline on flights, in tunnels, on the subway, or anywhere with no signal.

IMPORT YOUR OWN EPUB FILES
ArcReader isn't only for web novels. Import any EPUB from your device and read it with the same themes, fonts, and text-to-speech — a clean EPUB reader for the ebooks you already own.

READ IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE, LEARN AS YOU GO
Reading a novel in a language you're still learning? ArcReader helps:
- Translate long passages, not just single words — whole paragraphs in your language, right on the page.
- Tap any word for an instant dictionary definition.
- Save new words and review them with a built-in vocabulary mini-game.
