I’ve used almost every reader in the App Store for the Apple Watch. This one is Miles ahead of all the other ones I’ve tried.Here are a few features that could really improve this app: - saving reading location by default- Creating a table of contents section- Allowing for booklist to be the homepage
- Improved TTS playback issues
- If you experience significant noise or stuttering during TTS playback while using AirPods or Bluetooth headsets/earphones, please disconnect them from any other iPhone, iPad, or Bluetooth device and connect them exclusively to your Apple Watch.
