SideBooks - PDF&Comic viewer for Android
Not nearly as stable as iOS version. If it keeps crashing it's having trouble with trying to index in the background random file that's not necessarily *broken* -- but just will NEVER play nice with your currently installed version of Android sidebooks. you must open the app and instead of reading a book, find books with icon like "broken image", figure out filename, and use a file manager app to move those books out of the sidebooks library folder (or you can just delete them). Then the app is very stable. Other than that, just as deliciously perfect as iOS. The only app I know that lets you choose left or right reading direction per-book. And perfect interface! If and when the stability issue is fixed it will usurp hideous and hard to use comic and book apps that have traction for mysterious reasons.
It automatically turns the screen off when i am reading the book. Please make a function in setting to prevent that, keep the screen always on when reading. Thanks
Crashing quite often. If it has multi tab it will be perfect
Fantastic PDF reader. I've been using Moon+ Reader for years, and I've finally found something that has dethrone it.
Best comic viewer
Cat with recent book is not reasonable, bcz there are holy books in the app and a ct sitting with a holy book is a big reason of not installing app for most people.
Not working. "Unfortunately Sidebooks has stopped" Please fix. I love the app, but is not working.
This is an app that you can fall in love with, who wouldn't? The UI is very neat, the bookshelves design is very cool and the flip pages function is very very impressive. I just love it!
On my Asus Zenfone 3 Max, it reads PDF's without any problem, however CBR files are displayed as blank pages. It simply won't load the images. Anyone know any solution?
Some cbr and cbz can't be loaded, they have a broken file like thumb. Please fix it, it's one of the best comics reader app on Google play
The best PDF reader since the day I installed it a few years ago. There is no other app that compares.
The best reader app in the market
I've tried many reader apps and yours is the best for my (entry level) devices, highly recommended! By the way, is it possible to add SMB support on your next release? I won't mind if you include it as in-app purchase or as paid app. Thanks. P.S. there's an error where the app stopped working and need to be reinstalled everytime I restart my device.
This is probably the best app for pdf in my opinion. I would have given it five stars if there was a set Table of Contents tab in the front. The toolbars could be improved as well. Otherwise, it's fast and very nice as a pdf reader for the ebooks I use it for.
hei i want to request for top and botom option for readig direction just like on ios,it realy help for reading webtoon offline,thanks
Dont install
Been using this for months with no major glitches. Keep it up!
Zip file also supported
The Best PDF reader ! UI is very attractive & useful
Backgroud color....it will be appreciated if you add this option
Perfect for rendering large pdf.
Best pdf files reader of the world
Lovely
I use this reader since it was launch for the first time. And it is very satisfying .pdf reader. From the beautiful interface until the folding effect. Well done. One con that I still struggle about is how it represents bookmarks. If you can only make it in one button press to show the bookmark, that will be great improvement.
Very annoying when it sits for minutes with black screen checking for updates every third or fourth time I try to use it. Can't this happen in the background?
If I were the type of person that pirated comics that is. If I were to do that, this would be the tool I would use to read them.
It would be perfect if the app would display the reading progress and fit manga page on whole screen of my device
Hey guys, your app is the best. But you may consider rich editing format instead of the hassy edit you have. Combine your thoughts with ezpdf tools. Still you the best
Therefore this app doesn't work for me.
Feel like reading the real book. Beautiful book shelf. It will be better if changing home directory can keep book mark.
A very attentive dev team. Best comic reader ever
I have tried lot of pdf readers but this one is amazing especially the curl effect
Comic book pdf reader.
So far, so good.
I tried at least a dozen PDF readers. For large PDF (>60mb) rendering or searching I found nothing close to the speed of Sidebooks.
I tried many before settling on this. It has all the features i might want on a comics reader
Love it
This is by far the best comic reader I have ever encountered! It can read all my manga and pdf files without a glitch. I love how I can flip the pages smoothly. I love it most when I turn the pages and it clings to my fingertips like it's the real thing! The only problem I have is that it only support dropbox because I upload all my files on Mega. I hope you can support different cloud storage in the future though. And also would it be possible to make my library open to public?
Please fix this crash issue on my LG G4. It crashes everytime i try to launch it after updating to Android 6.0. Will give it a higher rating when it is fixed

The page turn animation is what makes this app stand out. The only thing this app lacks is the ablity to format the page to utilize all of your screen space (fit width, fit height, fit visble, fill visble etc). I would like to that feature added in an update. This would be especialy useful for those new android tablets that have a 4:3 aspect ratio. Add the scale image feature and this app will be the complete package.
