Hello,

Have you considered applying to have Shosetsu added to F-Droid?

Demo

The icon for Add to Library and the icon after adding look confusingly similar.

Title

So I'm laying down reading and the orientation flips horizontal. When rotated back to vertical the paragraph spacing is way off.

When you bookmark a chapter and remove the bookmark the color doesnt restore properly.

Rename Credits to Info and in Info display the following:

Trying to read books and I noticed that it says POSITION so I assume it keeps track where you left off in a chapter.

It doesn't seem to resume for me. Position number is 42962 with a short chapter. Not sure how I bugged out here.

Also. Adding a button for easy resuming VS finding the chapter I left off on. I'm starting a 1000+ chapter series and scrolling down to find my chapter would be a bit cumbersome.

Using takiyomi as a reference they have a play button to continue reading.

Something has been feeling off due to random blank spaces.

Turns out when a LN has a table the cells don't translate well.

Here it's used for item descriptions.

http://novelfull.com/the-legendary-moonlight-sculptor/volume-8-chapter-2.html

Please check the video there you see that when library is scrolled down the animation has borders and is not going from edge to edge of the screen/view.

Currently all options are in lower case letters

Ex: download

Instead capitalize it to read

Download

Chapters of Release that Witch from Box Novel is surrounded by div tag.

The same also happens with every other ln I've tried from Box Novel.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

this application will open the novel well so that users can read whatever novels they want

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR

when the user wants to open a novel to read, before the novel is fully loaded this application will stop working and crash.

STEP TO REPRODUCE

• download and install the app
• open the app
• click on tree line on the left side
• click on catalogue
• chose novel full or box novel
• wait for a second and novel list will appear
• then chose any novel you want to read
• note the error

Title.

When I'm done reading a chapter I back out to start the next one and it always shows a high position and "reading"

It's fixed by going back in and scrolling to the very bottom and backing out again.

Not sure how to replicate.

Queue 200 chapters to download on one LN.

Refresh another LN while downloading.

Hangs. Doesn't load second LN.

Check download screen crashes.

Reopen app. crashes on downloads screen again.

Redownload 1st LN. Wait till done.

Downloads opens fine empty.

Happens maybe 9/10 times. Often doesn't trigger as read.

In recent years interface design paradigm has been moving towards flat icons and interface and to better align with this consider removing shadows and borders from the following:

At the same time also consider smaller font size for ln title in catalogue.

Consider checking out Material design guidelines.

I marked a whole LN as read because Im caught up.
Open the most recent chapter and the Second most recent one marks as unread as well as latest.

' crashes app while attempting to download.

Solutions:

• 1 Remove ' from downloads
• 2 format ' into something else

Device: Redmi Note 5 Pro
Android version Android Pie

can't install app

You tap on one side to scroll a the page up and on the other to scroll down.

currently the only way to download for offline reading is to click one at a time or use the inefficient "select between" to download a bunch at once. Since you're using takiyomi as a reference for design and flow they have it setup at "Download next 10" which is a quick and easy way to download a bunch or a sample of a novel.

so far great work!

Takiyomi process pic. Menu, Download, Options!

As you had mentioned on Reddit.

I'm just opening a ticket to be able to keep track of it.

You may also want to add some left padding to the text so that it's not sticking to the image.

Small things to polish it up.

Title.

Easier to find what you read.

Please consider setting up a way to communicate/discuss ideas for development.

I recommend using one of the following in order:

• Discord / Slack
• Subreddit
• Facebook page

Add a space at the end of a book so the button doesn't cover the last sentence? Hard to read under it.

Title. Background doesn't change

The 3 digit unread look like they're arranged to the right. Then the "1" looks like it's on the left.

When done reading one has to back out and scroll down to the next chapter VS a "Continue" button.

Bonus points to ensuring it marks the current chapter you're on as read.

in toolbar_main.xml we use:

android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" which fixes its theme to Light.

Not a major issue but still.

Hello! It is planned to support pdf & epub, or it will only work with webs?

Picking up where you left off can be a chore with longer novels that have hundreds of chapters.

A resume reading option would be nice!

Takiyomi for reference

See the screenshot taken after setting theme as Dark.

The lack of visual cue makes the app harder to learn.
