I use Moon+ Reader, it's the best eBook app I have ever used so far!
People who read are hiders. They hide who they are. People who hide don't always like who they are.

I use Read era and WPS applications on my Android phone. The reading experience on Read era is a lot better, as for me anyway.

Certainly, there are several apps designed to make reading easier and more enjoyable. The right app for you will depend on your specific needs and preferences. Here are a few types of apps that can enhance your reading experience:

Ebook Readers:

Kindle: Amazon's Kindle app is widely used for reading ebooks. It offers features like adjustable font sizes, background colors, and night mode.
Apple Books: If you're an iOS user, Apple Books provides similar features for reading ebooks on your iPhone or iPad.
Text-to-Speech Apps:

Voice Dream Reader: This app not only lets you adjust font sizes and colors but also offers text-to-speech functionality, which can be helpful for users with visual impairments or for multitasking while "listening" to books.
Read-Aloud Apps:

Bookful: This app combines reading with augmented reality, creating an interactive experience that can engage readers, especially children.
Accessibility Features:

Many devices and operating systems have built-in accessibility features that can make reading easier, such as screen magnification, voice commands, and more.
Speed Reading Apps:

Blinkist: This app summarizes non-fiction books, making it quicker to get the main points of a book. It's great for learning and quickly absorbing key insights.
Annotation and Note-Taking Apps:

GoodNotes: If you prefer digital note-taking while reading, GoodNotes is excellent for highlighting, underlining, and jotting down notes.
Language Learning Apps:

Duolingo: If you're reading in a foreign language, Duolingo can help you learn and improve your language skills as you read.
Remember to check the features of each app to find the one that best suits your needs.

Although Kindle app is great and is helpful to download the books easier my favorite app of all times is ReadEra I have all my books there, reads a lot of formats and is friendly to keep notes and quotes.
