The first update for Android since April 2021 is out. Packages are available on the Play Store (for beta testers) and from our site.

3.1 beta 39 starts a new cycle of Android updates; we will release the next one later in August.

This version adds the permission to access the filesystem on Android 11+, implements support for new bookmark styles added via the desktop version, and fixes minor issues in text-to-speech.

2.0β16 is a minor update that fixes a few issues with network catalogues found since the previous release. It also brings a long-awaited standalone installer for Windows.

MSIX file is installable on Windows 10 and 11. On older versions of Windows, you can unpack it manually and run the app at your own risk.

4.5 months later, we reached milestone #2. Since the release 2.0beta15, FBReader is not just a reader. It becomes a powerful network catalogues browser. Delivered with four built-in catalogues (two in English, two in Russian), the app allows adding your preferred OPDS sources. Other features include the navigation history, network search, and bookmarking. And, of course, downloading/purchasing the books.

The catalogues browser still needs some polishing, and your bug reports are very welcome.

The update for Windows is on Microsoft Store, and the version for Linux is on Snap Store (beta channel). MacOSX package is available for download from our site.

As the project approaches the 2.0 release, we plan to publish long-awaited stand-alone package for Windows later in July.

New FBReader 1.1.0 for iOS.

Added continuous vertical scrolling in single column mode.
Added the 'page-turning threshold' option. It defines the minimum distance you need to swipe text to turn the page.
The renderer uses colours from embedded CSS styles. You can disable these colours in the preferences.
Broken Yandex translator replaced with DeepL.
Implemented full synchronization of bookmark styles with desktop FBReader. Using the desktop version, you can add and remove styles.

OPDS support is delayed again :( Expected very soon.
Simultaneously, we released iOS SDK 0.99.3, which includes all the 1.1.0 changes.
