Ratings and Reviews
Quite good
I like the reader, it feels natural, book like on an iPad in landscape mode. It’s quite tedious loading books with lots of steps and potential pitfalls to go through.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your feedback. As for importing (loading) books, have you checked our online FAQ? It sounds like “PC Upload” may be the easiest way for you, if you have your books on your PC or Mac.
The best for Calibre & iPad
After much reading, searching and trying apps, I was about to abandon the splendid Calibre, and revert back to the slick and pretty but very limited Apple Books. Then I found this app. I initially tried it and skipped it, because parts of it looked naff and I couldn’t import my PDFs. Then I tried the full version and it worked. It just doesn’t work in the free version.
The app is looking great so far - can see page thumbnail view and contents (like Apple Books but which many apps don’t offer. One thing - PLEASE allow us to increase the size of the cover thumbnails in grid view - they’re too small. The wooden shelf effect would have to increase in size also of course.
Great reader, horrible for importing books
As a reader it’s pretty good. The interface is powerful, easy to use, and comfortable to read from.
However the interface for maintaining the library – importing books and so forth – is horrendous. It tries to provide thousands of ways to import books from every kind of server, and in fairness it probably succeeds. But understanding how to actually use this feature is gently melting my brain.
I want to like this app, I really do. But until the interface is more clearly laid out, and is more consistent with existing iPad apps, I can’t give it more than two stars.
Developer Response ,
Have you read our online FAQ on "How to import books into MapleRead?" You only need to know one way to import, no matter how many ways there are.
