It really depends on the type of files your books are. Whether they are PDF or Epub or Mobi. I converted most of my ebooks to Epub so I prefer ireader, universal bookreader is also very good if you have all formats and AlReader os alottle difficult to work sometimes but can work with all formats.

I like Amazon Kindle's app alongside Overdrive, but I have also used free eBooks in the app store and a Classics reader app too.
Hi all. I like board games, card games, video games, books (especially children's books and mysteries), stories, cartoons, anime, manga, light novels, animation, and other light-hearted, fun things. Feel free to message if you want to chat!

I use Aldiko book reader and I love it. It can read any type of files whether they are PDF or Epub. Plus you can download classic novels from their store for free. Novels like Shakespeare's, Jane Austen's, Conan Doyle's and the likes of them which is very useful for students. And yeah I love classic so I am really enjoying it.

FBReader is pretty good and doesn't require much space on your Android.

Depends on which version. For PDF files I use Moon+ Reader, it adapts font size to the reader's liking.
People who read are hiders. They hide who they are. People who hide don't always like who they are.

I like importing my textbooks and such into good notes because it's good for annotating. I do just use EPUBreader for novels and books I know I won't annotate.

It depends on the ty of the digital media that you are referring to. But overall, I would suggest kindle is always remaining to be the best app ad adobe acrobat comes next in the list.

Keeping other features aside, the vital quality of an E-reader in my opinion is its ability to open most formats. I've tried different apps and ReadEra is the best for me.

There are many applications for reading books but according to me, the best app is Google's first-party software for reading ebooks and listening to audiobooks purchased from the Google Play Store is called Google Play Books, as its name indicates.
