What is your favorite reading app on smartphone ?
I for example prefer Moon+ Reader. It is simple with a lot of options of highlighting and the ability of adding notes. I have tried tens of applications before settling down for this one. It have both free and paid versions and available on Google Play, making it compatible with almost every android
What is the best reading application in your opinion? What exactly do you look for in such thing?
I would love to know everybody's favorite

But seeing how others enjoy different apps, I am definitely going to have to try some new stuff!

I prefer to read with Moon+ because I can scroll instead of turning pages and for some reason that feels more natural to me. I won't try to explain that. It just does. I don't think scrolling offers a practical advantage but I like it.
Moon+ also lets me make very fine adjustments to the look of the page and that's another plus, although the look of the Kindle app is okay. Again, it's just a matter of taste.
So I keep two copies of the book on my phone and when I'm away from home if I think I'll have a bit of time to read I'll manually sync Moon+ with my Kindle app, which is already synced with my Voyage. If I don't expect to have much time I'll just read with the Kindle app.
Frankly I like Moon+ so much that if the LCD screen of my phone didn't give me eyestrain with sessions longer than 15 or 20 minutes I'd do all my reading on my phone. I also like the 5" screen. It seems ideal to me.
