## Review summary

User reviews praise Booklover for its polished UI, deep customization, and strong organization tools (metadata, tags/genres) ideal for large comic and eBook collections. It’s easy to use and offers solid cloud syncing, with perceived good value for a one-time purchase. Recurrent downsides are stability issues and crashes with large libraries, plus a strong demand for folder-based organization. There are also common feature requests (EPUB support, markup tools, smoother page transitions), but overall it’s viewed as a top iOS reader option.

### Pros

- Highly customizable reading experience with lots of features.
- Great UI/design and easy to use.
- Strong metadata and tagging options for organizing large libraries.
- Cloud syncing/storage support (iCloud sync and cloud access).

### Cons

- Stability issues (crashes or app not functioning) when loading large libraries.
- Lack of folder-based organization; users want folders to manage thousands of titles.
