en 8:30 AM Hi, I use this application a lot to turn stories that posted in forum into books, but recent update kinda broke it for me. Before it only show the page with story content that I need. Now each comment of the topic is considered a page, so there are just a lot of extra pages that I don't need, and I am forced to turn pages a lot. Please return the old paging method. Thank you.

en I came here looking for an alternative to Omnivore , a read later app that will shut down by this December. That's a very nice alternative that seems to do more than what Omnivore did , especially with the design mode being some sort of a "mini-Microsoft Word" mode . I just wish however to make some recommendations for improvements : )More Rich text format options (Underlining , strikethrough , etc). )More colors for the Highlighter. )More fonts )Adding comment boxes For people who just started to annotate websites and save them as single-file HTML document : It's very capable and will likely satisfy most people's needs.
