A very good ebook reader. Kindly bring more features to PDF reading like, text to speech, reading mode, sentence highlight. Vertical scrolling should be smoother.

Have used for years and has always been great. Upgraded to premium for the audio reader and it works great.

1. Hi guys, when I open an EPUB book in FB Reader Premium, the margins are too wide. I set the left and right margins to 0, but it didn’t help much. How can I reduce the margins to a reasonable size? 2. Also, is it possible to enlarge the Translation pop-up window without any size limit?

Latest update makes it awful. I have paid for every add-on and premium gladly. I stopped trying alternatives in 2019 because fbreader has been everything I wanted for 5+ years, and the best since 2007. Moon reader plus does everything that I need, and I think is a good alternative[2019 review: I constantly try new readers, I constantly come back. This really is my favorite book reader.]

Unfortunately last update made the app unusable for me. All the books were tremendously slow to open, decided to reinstall. Now I stuck at permissions request... It was one great app, such a pity.

FB reader is completely broken now, It freezes when opening ebooks which it previously had no issues with even bigger ebooks. Other ebook readers work but FB reader which was once the best is completely worthless garbage now as it can't even open ebooks without freezing, even uninstalling it and reinstalling it does nothing. Don't bother with this garbage, clearly it has zero QA, or they are useless.
