Ratings and Reviews
Excellent, but...
This app is crashing on Sonoma with every ebook I open. Not good. Please fix this along with other random crashes I had been experiencing on Ventura. I have been very happy with this app when it worked. Not so much now that it isn't.
original review from 2022: I used Clearview and now I'm using Clearview X. I am very fond of them both and they function well. PLEASE MAKE A VERSION FOR IOS AND IPADOS with sync! That would be outstanding!
Disappointed
Nice reader if you store your PDFs etc locally. I store all my PDFs and eBooks in iCloud, and this reader will not recognize, let alone open them unless you download the books first — which cannot do from within this app; you have download them first via the Finder. As is, I'm hardly using the app — regret updating from the previous version.
Works for some
I'm just glad that someone is making reading apps.
So, I'm trying Clearview X and Clearview with CHM and CBR - it works with CBR (comics) but not with CHM. CHM, a rare file kind, I can only open and read successfully with KYBook 2, which is actually an iPhone app usable with M1 chip. For most reading I use Murasaki, paid version, and for challenging picture books I use iBooks.
