![]() ![]() The last one is something that isn’t seen commonly in other readers. While reading you have the option of choosing book mode, scroll mode, or musician’s mode. This is something that is not seen in many readers, but might be necessary if you’re reading in a language where the flow of reading goes from right to left, for example manga. You can change the direction of text from left to right or reverse. You can space and align the text as you want, change the font size and style, download additional styles if the existing ones don’t feel enough. The reader has the option to modify the text in all possible ways. You might wonder what something like this is doing in a book reader, but a playlist is simply a custom collection, but better suited for a musician who might want to play something one after another. There is also something called Playlists in the app. You can create your own collection using tags, or use the folder view, if you prefer to organize your books out of the app. Other than this you have the option to favourite your book if you want to view them in a separate tab. The book library in the app has two types of grid and list views, and the option to filter by genres, series, languages, tags etc. The app looks plain and the design looks a bit dated, but don’t let that turn you off, the abundance of features really makes up for it. ![]() So in case of Librera, you’d have to compromise with the look and feel of the app. If there was ever an app which has all the features and the perfect UI, then we wouldn’t even have this list to compare the features. The app is available for free with ads, but you can upgrade to the Pro version to remove those. Librera is an app that has all the features that you’d ever want in an e-reader. The app has potential, but is lacking some features that are easily available in other apps, but still it has a lot to offer for an app of its size. The app has an option to create local backups for meta-data, but the option to sync online, which uses Google Drive, is only available for paid users. This may disappoint those who would like to have a collection of their quotes to view whenever they want at a single place. But the highlights and bookmarks of the book can only be seen after opening the book. You have the options to highlight and create bookmarks, so you will be able to use it to mark the pages where you’d like to come back to later for a reread. The reader loads a bit when moving in between chapters, and the scroll view isn’t as smooth as one might expect, which is quite disappointing. You get to choose the background, the page flow direction, the text size, and spacing, but not the font style, which might be necessary for some. The book reading experience isn’t perfect, but that is to be expected from such a lightweight reader. On the other hand, the premium version has a separate section for all your quotes, notes, and bookmarks. In the free version, you can quote, bookmark, and add notes to a book, but you only get to view those you have added to one book at a time. There is also quote and notes management. The premium version also includes some other features which might explain the price, such as library grid view, while the free version limits you to list view. It has a set of font styles which you can use, however if you’re willing to pay for the Premium, which is a tad bit more costly when compared to the pro versions of other apps, you’d get to upload your own fonts and use it. It allows you to change the background colour, font size, spacing, and page flipping direction. It supports almost all the available book formats. A reading is nothing without its reading functionality and format support, where ReadEra fares well. There is also an option to edit the meta-data of your books if you wish to clean up your collection.īook management is just the cherry on the top. In case, you already manage your collections in folders, you can use the folder view to navigate to your books. On the book management front, it allows you to create custom collections, in addition to default collections like ‘Read’, ‘To Read’, and ‘Favourites’. ![]()
