User Reviews

Bluefire Reader is strong for searching and organizing library content and serves well as an ADE replacement with good rendering and handy features. However, it struggles with stability, progress tracking, and readability controls on some devices, and DRM/login/sync issues dampen the experience. Users value its library tools and search, but ongoing updates and bug fixes are needed.
Pros
  • Excellent search functionality across books and PDFs.
  • Robust library management and organization (large collections, bookmarks, and collections).
  • ADE/DRM-friendly with library access; supports ACSM and replacement for Adobe Digital Editions.
  • Clear, high-quality text rendering for EPUBs and PDFs.
  • Helpful reader features like dictionary lookup, bookmarks, and Speak.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and freezes; overall instability and loading problems.
  • Inconsistent progress tracking (does not save reading position; page counts can be off).
  • Font size and appearance controls (font size and dark mode/text color) do not work on some iOS versions/devices.
  • DRM/Adobe ID sign-in issues and limited cross-device syncing; import reliability varies.
  • General import/library/file-management friction and uneven developer support.

Could not import my ebooks

Enough said.

It worked fine on IPad Mini 2 and old version of BFR but now have latest version on IPad Mini 7 and some books from library have very small type and I’m unable to enlarge. Same books works on old IPad. I wonder why.
