Where did it go it use to be there on tablets also? Says it revamped you took away the description area. That was one of the best part of this app, you could see the info on books without having to open book. It was very useful, please bring it back. You sort by series etc anymore. This was better before. It also won't load some books, nothing wrong with them. They loaded before in older version just fine. This one sucks.

I used Bookari for several years , it's stable and meet almost all I need. One feature requirement, would you like to support awz3 format in future?

I admire the design and quality of operation of this app. In contrast, however, the automatic import of PDFs/other is undesirable, and I did not find an option to defeat said action in settings. I do not intend to import most of the ebooks or documents I read, so auto import is an obstacle to adopting this eReader as the default app (I would prefer to read my PDFs without importing--creating--a copy). An option should be implemented.

Better than Kobo that comes with the device, waiting for a release from Mantano that can show epub3 format else it is worth far more than 5 stars.

This application seems like one of the better ones out there. However once I create notes they disappear as soon I close the epub or pdf or close the app. I'm using a galaxy tab pro 8.4 with android 4.2.2. Please advise.

I used to love the way it worked, looked and handled my books. Now it looks horrible with all the we heavy underlining and the menu is just a bunch of advertising ofbooks I dont want. I paid for the app stop pushing these junkie novels on me. I want the old a app back, ver 1.2 before the marketing department got there hands on my tablet... very unhappy with it.

Q70%
by Q####:

I used to love this app, freezes, crashes, and all. I use this for very fast moving question and answer sessions but because of the faint highlighting, nothing stands out on the page. If I had known, I would have skipped the update. Although I still use it, for now, I am looking for an alternative

Money waste. No difference between the FREE Mantano reader LIGHT and Mantano Reader Essentials version!!!

I've used a lot of e-readers and Mantano are by far the best publishers/creators I've come across yet. Full of options to organise your library, easy and intuitive to use, it has the best array of user options that I've seen from an e-reader app. I have over twelve thousand books in my library, so organisation is a must, and I am beyond impressed by what Mantano have done.

I have Repligo, EzPDf, and Mantano. I love Mantano's presentation and speed, but it keeps crashing from PDF to the bookshelf when you highlight repeatedly in the text. It becomes very painful over time. Forces me to use the other 2 readers at times. Also searching in pdfs still doesn't work. Repligo is the only reader that searches perfectly especially in long text.

Manual margin settings are not working at all. I contacted the developer about two weeks ago and never received a response. Nice enough to take my money but can't reply to a simple email.

I used the paid version of moon reader for a long time before I found this one. Everything I wanted to be better in Moon Reader is knocked out of the park in Mantano. Page turns - Lightning fast Organization - Much more intuitive than Moon Page loading - 0 time waiting for pages to load Text selection - Incredibly responsive and predictive Crashes - once or twice. It's android. It happens Verdict: Get this. From a college student with a million PDFs to read

I loved it until I started importing books in Italian. The dictionary feature worked for about the first 5 words, then the app closes the dictionary page and brings me back to the bookshelf. I try over and over to use the dictionary but I end up having to cut and paste the words into Google.
