Review summary

Overall, users love AlReader for its ad-free, lightweight design with solid multi-format support (epub, mobi, doc, etc.), strong library features, offline reading, and a clean, intuitive interface. Privacy is a plus. The main recurring downsides are the lack of PDF support, occasional stability issues (crashes/bugs), and some TTS weaknesses (stops or hard to pause). Despite these, long-time users appreciate its reliability, customization options, and ad-free experience.

Occasional stability issues: crashes/bugs.

2026-08-15	ad*****	the app is fantastic. however, the very disappointing issue is the lack of supporting pdf files. pdf files are very important for most people.

2026-08-09	Dm*****	I've been using this reader for 11 years, and I'll continue using it. I think that says enough about how good it is.

2026-07-22	A *****	Cannot read Comic Books CBR, CBZ, PDF etc. Fails to detect new e-books automatically. Have to manually SCAN after every addition of e-book file. Worst is that the bookmarks are not stored with the e-book file! So, on case your phone/device is inoperable/damaged, one is TOTALLY LOST about which books were read already or which remain to be read. Critical with a large collection of e-books. Clumsy, confusing interface. Positive thing is it's small footprint,useful when less storage on older phones

2026-06-14	Yu*****	A great app for reading doc and many other text files since good old wm5. I've got so lazy and TTS-addicted, so the reading itself became an option. Wm is dead, Alreader is alive. Thanx Alan! Слава Україні!
