Good app, but when it updated, the version on my phone won't access any of the folders on my SD card. It shows little locks on the folders. Other apps will access the card. I don't have space on my phone for the books. On my old Kindle, the Titles page always crashes when it didn't before and I have to wait a while for a book to load before I can turn a page, which didn't happen before. I preferred the previous version. When it works, it's brilliant to share my library between devices.

The best of the 7-10 e-readers I've tried so far. My two biggest wants? Add more customization options for areas on the screen to turn pages. Many other readers such as Prestigio are highly customizable in this regard. This really is a pain. 2nd is more minor, but please fix the progress bar at the bottom of the screen. There is no mark on it to indicate progress, which makes it fairly useless. Apart from that, very good!

One of the best ebook readers out there. I really love the built-in TTS, though I was disappointed that the speech customizations available in the plugin are missing. The local catalog is good, but there's no way to filter out all the books that are 100% read from my catalog view (a real annoyance when trying to find unread books in a large local library). As a result, I have to rely upon other apps to track my progress. These two fixes, or at least the 2nd one, improve this from 3 to 5 stars.
