I cold started the app just now. It takes less than half a second to get me into the book after showing me the cover art of the book. It’s about the same as any other app on my phone. Certainly doesn’t take “forever”, although I concede my phone is about a year old. It could be different if you’re using the app on a much older device.
Seems harsh to call it a “pathetic joke” or “frankly garbage”. I was just reading a book on my phone so I checked the “laughably few display options”. I see the ability to customise font (8 fonts, serif, sans-serif, dyslexic friendly), font size, page colour, the option to update page colour according to system theme, line spacing, alignment, orientation lock, continuous or page scrolling and 8 other options.
It’s better to say that your specific need to change the font colour isn’t catered to. But there’s no need to talk in such harsh terms. Get a hold of yourself.
- Causality1 5y agoThat was a decent feature set when I had it on my Palm twenty years ago. If you haven't tried other much more powerful e-readers you might be pleasantly surprised. The Kindle app won't even let you keep the nav buttons and status bar displayed while you read.
- nindalf 5y agoI have 200 hours on Moon Reader reading The Wheel of Time alone. At least 200 more reading other books. I still prefer Kindle because it has features that are important to me, such as a simple and effective notes+highlights system and syncing my place across devices.
