Bookari Ebook Reader Premium App Reviews

So many great features to support and streamline organization and access of my library...books, articles, etc. Wishlist: Allow sharing/downloading of PDFs from the app to drop box/email to facilitate better access to actual files on IOS.

Apparently Montano doesnt want my money for the cloud service. Every time I try to subscribe, I get error message. I cant even get into the My Account page without getting error messages. Last but not least, I cant even get a reply from them to give me any inkling as to what the problem might be on their end. If this doesnt get resolved in the next 48 hours Ill be looking into a different app to spend my money on. Its really to bad because I really love the functionality of the app and the cloud service.

Buggy. For example, the text selection in epubs does not work: it is very difficult to select a particular word, and when the finger leaves the screen the selection changes...Also the selection handles do not work !

I am so Happy! This update is Amazing. Now I am in a good mood for start reading my books again! Thank you!!!

Where is setting for the font change? I havent found out ;-(

Im so excited to find this app for my ios tablet. I have used it on my Nexus 7 and love the beauty of it. I have been looking for an app that could handle pdfs and epub files on my iPad and now I have found it. I just tried it on my iPad and its similar to my Nexus 7, except the Nexus app is smoother. Also, some features are different, but works the same way. At the bottom of the screen it says annotate instead of write, and the highlight feature does not place the choice colors at the top of the screen for easy selection while highlighting. I found that feature less time consuming and faster highlighting. Im hoping I will get use to using it this way for ios. Thanks for the dictionary feature, it comes in handy. I would love to see a selection for underlining and freehand drawing on both tablets. I have iAnnotate, and its a wonderful app for pdfs on my ios, but lackluster on my Nexus. If only they did epubs on ios, I would not have needed another app. Within the last 2 weeks Ive tried MarginNote and Wireshare apps. I thought MarginNote would do it all, but no underlining, dictionary or freehand drawing. It will be useful for other things. Wireshare is not a good epub reader in my opinion. It has all the needed features for PDFs and many other things. Mantano should do the job and hopefully my search is over. Thanks Mantano for developing this app for ios users. I know it will get better!! ps: (4 stars only because it doesnt have that wonderful highlighting color choice feature at the top of the screen for easy selection as the Nexus) I just noticed page turning is really smooth on the ios! 14 February 2014 Im having a hard time finding out how to activate voiceover and change font size. Ive gone on the website and tried the suggestions, but nothing. Maybe Im not following the instructions correctly. I just dont see settings - voiceover or font size even when I swipe as instructed. Help!

I have used Mantano on my nexus for 6 months. I have over 300 titles, some books and others are documents. I have found it the easiest reader for creating collections, adding tags for refined sorting, annotating, and gathering notes. I subscribe to the premium version, which lets me sync across devices. I am so glad there is now an ios version that I can install on my phone. I have found it far more useful and flexible than Aldiko, Moon+, and certainly better than any of the specialized readers such as kindle, nook, or google reader.

This reader comes without the cloud service, note taking capabilities and other powerful features available in the other competing platform. I changed to Ipad hoping I would have a strong reader with Mantano, but I feel deceived. This is not in line with my expectations.

Basics are in place, but critical reading comfort features are missing, such as turning "page turn" special effect off are missing. Readers need control over all aspects of the ebook experience.

I liked it but freeze when I use ePub3 book from Jw.org too bad thats my main reason I purchased it

Great for highlighting and notetaking. One issue I have is that I would like the text to stay black instead of changing color when it is highlighted. Black text w/yellow highlight instead of a dark yellow text w/yellow highlight. I really appreciate the footnote popup, so many other ebook apps do not have this feature. If there was a way to enbed the footnote into the page, I would like that a future feature.

I was really pleased to see Mantano release their reader on iOS. Having used it on the alien, this reader does everything right for ePub PDF and sync. I look forward to the future release which allows cross platform sync, PDF crop and drawing annotations. Please keep the updates coming!

...a way to see on the page where you left a note on ePub (i.e. Flag, symbol, tag, etc.). It would be nice if there was a more dedicated button. Also dont know how to delete custom colors created.

Just bought this App but cant use it because it keeps crashing.... Am very angry right now

The best e/book reader ! Have not seen better. Thanks. Leon.

I like the app very much, but I have a couple of request. Id rather have a choice to scroll or turn pages. I also would like to be able to move the note box because it lays over the paragraph that Im studying and need to review it in order to give my answer. it also would be nice if we could shrink the note box or enlarge the note box, and to be able to place it where we want it. That would make it perfect.

When I hold my fingers on a certain word, to which I want to write annotation, the app crushes!!!

The good: Support for EPUB3 and PDF. I wont need to have my book collection spread over multiple apps. The ability to make sub-collections. I have a large number of books and its *much* easier to keep them neatly organized in Mantano. The not-so-good: When I was sorting my books into Collections, the app kept crashing. As frequently as every couple of minutes. Very annoying. Some of the metadata in EPUB3 books is getting stripped out. I noticed that after importing my eBooks into Mantano, information such as publisher, series, and book descriptions that I had added in Calibre was now missing from some of them. This only seems to be a thing with the EPUB3 books. Those two issues are keeping me from giving 5 stars, but hopefully they can be fixed in a future update.

Handles footnote popovers with ease, taking full advantage of ePub version 3...seems to be the only reader for iPhone or iPod that does that, that Ive found (not comparing with iPad since iBooks handles popovers just fine...its just iBooks for iPhone/iPod that does not...yet). Needs to add few more iBooks features like vertical scrolling and easier method of highlighting text

I have tried for months to get this app to settle down and operate properly. It takes forever to brings in large epubs and most times does not bring in the highlights therefore I have to close and open the app several times to get them. It also will not go backwards page by page sometimes but will jump backwards to a whole chapter. It is simply very frustrating trying to use this app as nice as it appears to be.
