Ratings and Reviews
Najlepsza na różne systemy, ale
Kupiłem tutaj oraz wersję na Androida. Niecierpliwie czekam na obiecany przez twórców TTS (niech działa w tle, jak w Speech Central, bo w FB na onyx boox page nie działa). Synchronizacja między urządzeniami działa świetnie. Nie jest to może idealna apka, jeśli chodzi o konfigurację interfejsu, ale działa solidnie.
Does not show context menu on iOS16
After update to iOS16 FBReader does not show context menu on text selection. I have used this menu for bookmarks and text translation, now all functions are not accessible for to issue with menu.
Good for technical ebooks
A little crude UI, but nevertheless for my use case (reading technical IT ebooks) FBReader is much better than built-in Macos Books app, because:
- Copy function copies only selected text and does not include additional copyright warnings etc (as opposed to Books), so it much easier to copy and paste into Google search for example
- Following hiperlinks just... works, as opposed to Books where (at least on my Mac browser) clicking on a http link invokes mailto function lol
- Table of context is foldable and chapters can be toggled to show or hide subchapters, as opposed to Books where I have to scroll through all subchapters and sections before seeing next chapter. This is helpful if I want to search and read only a specific fragment
