PocketBook Reader: читалк‪а‬ 4+

It’s almost perfect

Does everything I need, cross platform logins, read multiple formats, save multiple bookmarks, a lot more. The thing is Im on Apple SE 2nd Gen and for the life of me I can’t figure out the touch gesture for exiting to main menu or pulling up options and table of contents once Im reading a book full screen. I’ve tried swiping all over the reading, which just changes pages and outside the area, holding down but it just highlights words and gives note taking options, Ive used multiple finger gestures. It just never works anyway and then it will randomly work or I have to exit whole app to exit reading but then sometimes it will take me back to main menu or just start me back in full screen reading mode and I just keep touch gesturing around the screen until the options, table of contents and back arrow pulls up. Is this just me? Or my phone not fully compatible? Developer what’s the touch gesture for exiting full screen mode to back out to my library?

Just tap once on a screen center.
There should be an animation with this gesture when you open book first time after install.
Have a pleasure reading.

A Wonderful App! Just one question…

I love how Pocketbook lets me read both CBRs and PDFs. It’s a dream come true, especially with so many reading options. I especially appreciate how the app saves my placement when reading something. I just wish there was one feature that could be included: naming books.
Can you allow for custom naming? I like giving my books nicknames with numbers so I can easily remember which order to read them in. (Book 1, Book 2, Book 3, etc). But even if I rename the file itself, the name for the book doesn’t change.
For example, say that I have some Harry Potter books. I take the third book and rename the PDF file to “Harry Potter 3”. But when I open the file in Pocketbook, it still calls it “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”. As someone who often loses track of book order, this is quite frustrating, especially since the app sorts the books (even within groups) alphabetically.
At the very least, allow for more customization when sorting books, like maybe moving them around (within a group) manually.

No way to save formatting settings and ebooks take an age to load

I was looking for an alternative to another ebook reader app for iOS, and while I love the UI of this one, it's extremely frustrating that ebooks take FOREVER to load (like a minute before you can start reading after opening the book for the first time, even for short books), and there is no way that I can find to permanently set the formatting for the ebook, for example, to increase the line height or font size. If you leave the ebook and immediately reopen it, the formatting is reset to the book's default. I googled around to see if there's a way to do this and it doesn't seem like it, although the app's settings and tooltips are lacking enough that I would believe there's a way, it's just not called out anywhere that I can see. There's also no way to bulk-download books via OPDS, and each book you download opens a download progress dialogue (instead of proceeding with the download in the background), which blocks you from downloading any other books in the meantime, and after the download completes opens the book, requiring you to back out of the book before you can download another. Overall a pretty app with some pretty awful usability issues!
