The BEST ebook reader, argue with ya momma 🤭

Seriously so AMAZING! If you’ve been struggling to find an ebook reading app that has good feature and a good look, this app is IT!This my second review on this app, since the Liquid Glass update came out not too long ago and man, it really gives the Yomu app a clean, fresh look (it already looked good, but it feels like after this update, the app was given a lil extra polishing) I’m being 100% honest when I say i don’t have anything negative to say about this app! That’s just how good it is! Simple, but clean! That’s Yomu!!!The only thing that I have to offer are some suggestions for new features in the future!! I am hoping for a feature that lets you go line by line when reading, it’ll blur out the rest of the words on the page and when you finish reading a line, you can tap on the screen to go to the next line (so, similar to what Apple Books offers!) I have always had trouble with accidentally skipping lines and getting confused, used to read with a bookmark covering the next lines in school for this reason! Hoping something like that gets added in! It’d be a super helpful feature for many users I bet!

06NOV25: now reliably syncs across iOS and MacOS. Doesn't always permit highlighting italicized text. Good notes, bookmarks and highlights annotations. Splendid little reader routinely updated. =Peace= =============================== 26APR24: Remains the leader of the pack of nonDRM eBook readers. Yomu preserves all notes and highlights, but to open the last location on another iOS device is unreliable, which has dogged this app form the beginning. I find it best to use ‘HandOff’ feature, then commence reading. Buy it and support the developer. =Peace= =============================== 23JUN23: another useful incremental upgrade. Yomu is the epub reader leader at this time. ========================== 14may23. Supported and periodically improved. I’m a bit disappointed PDF support is read only. Notwithstanding, the epub utility of this app is unassailable. Remains at 5stars for developer focus on maintaining this splendid app. =Peace= =============================== Obtaining reads for the many epub/PDF, etc servers provide a treasure trove of inexhaustible material. This reader is at the top, opening multiple windows and plays well with split screen. Another update, for me, is exciting. This app is a jewel

Developer Response
Yomu uses Apple's default text selection, which can sometimes be unreliable. What usually works best is to long press on an individual word and then adjust the selection handles.There will likely be some optimizations in an upcoming iOS platform update. Please report this issue directly to Apple for it to be prioritized: https://www.apple.com/feedback/

I download books to my files then send them over to yomu. Simple no frills process; unlike other apps where they promise the world to get you to download but lock all the features behind a paywall, this one gives you most of the features, only limiting how many books you can download and not having the cloud saving option, which imo is quite generous. It even lets you edit the book’s covers/info, which i was very excited to discover (sometimes you just prefer the alternate cover of a book). Considering how many apps lock their features behind a paywall or subscription I’m so grateful for this app’s creators and think they deserve all the support and I’d highly recommend the pro version to everyone even if you don’t need the extra features just to support the creators 💙

This was a good reader except every single time I swipe right (to review something on the previous page), it takes me out of the book and back to the library. I then have to search for the book I’m reading in the library and re-open it. Since I go back to previous pages quite frequently, this is pretty frustrating and renders this reader unusable to me. I don’t know if it’s just a glitch on the paid version, I’ve never had an app do this -and I’ve been using ereaders going back all the way to stanza 😀 I’d be happy to go back to it if this issue is addressed.Response to developers:Why does the swipe right take back to library? There’s a button at the top that seems to do that - and in all other reading apps, that’s the way to go back to library. Swiping to go back to library seems rather asinine since swiping right is also the way to go back to the previous page. Considering the large size of phones now, it is rather hard to one-handedly swipe from the middle of the screen since I have smaller hands. I don’t expect to have to use both hands to turn pages on a reading app. If I wanted to do that, I’d just read a hard copy book.

Developer Response
You seem to navigate back by swiping from the side of the screen? This is a standard gesture in many apps. Try scrolling from the center or tapping right/left to go to the next/previous page. Refer to the Get Started Guide if you have trouble using the app: https://www.yomu-reader.com/support/guide/get-started/
