Light weight, Faster and reliable CHM reader.

Features & Capabilities

Chm Reader X is a lightweight and highly optimized CHM eBook reader designed for both tablets and phones. It offers superior performance opening even large CHM files quickly and supports ill-formatted CHM documents that other readers might fail to open.

Key features include a content tree view, powerful search functionality, full screen mode, and the ability to preserve reading state such as page position and zoom level across sessions. It supports multiple file types, including CHM, HTML, MHT, text, images, and embedded PDFs. User-friendly navigation options like volume key page turning, bookmarking, language encoding settings, low light mode, and fast scroll enhance the reading experience. The extension also supports association with certain file managers for seamless file opening.

Please note, some compatibility issues exist on older Android versions, and the app requires internet access permission to open external links embedded in CHM files. Feedback and support responses are welcomed via email to address user issues promptly.

User Reviews

Reviews note strong CHM reading capabilities, including large files, and a simple interface. However, recurring concerns center on Android OS compatibility (especially 11–13), instability and crashes, and privacy/permissions regarding file access. Some files aren’t recognized. Overall, CHM reading is solid, but reliability and privacy concerns limit consistent use.

Pros

Reliable CHM reading, including very large files (e.g., 360MB) without choking
Simple, straightforward interface
Improved compatibility on newer Android versions (Android 10–12) for CHM reading

Cons

Significant Android OS compatibility issues (Android 11/13) causing it not to work on many devices
Occasional crashes or the app stops working
Privacy and file-permission concerns about app accessing or modifying other files
Some CHM files are not recognized or visible to the app

CHM Reader X: CSS-true rendering, per-file bookmarks, intuitive touch/volume scrolling, and remembers my customized font size! Suggestion: Hyphenation Option Pls enhance readability by creating hyphenation option like "@Voice Aloud Reader" with "Page look" settings (via a "T+/-" icon and the "TEXT" tab). It intelligently splits long one word (many letters) at line breaks by hyphenation, improving layout on phones (portrait), minimizing large gaps between words, and boosting user experience.
