User reviews

The EPUB READER extension is praised for its simplicity, readability, and support for Japanese vertical text, as well as maintaining EPUB formatting well. However, multiple users report significant problems including breaking CSS styles on unrelated websites, conflicts with various web applications, malfunctioning bookmarks, inconvenient file opening procedures, and problematic text reflow affecting content accuracy. Despite these drawbacks, users acknowledge its effectiveness as an EPUB viewer with potential for improvement.

Pros

Effective EPUB viewing without destroying formatting or image structure
Supports vertical Japanese text layout
Customizable look and includes a table of contents
Complete and meets expectations with room for improvement

Cons

Breaks CSS or formatting on other unrelated websites, affecting page display
Incompatibility or conflicts with certain websites and web applications (e.g., fanfiction.net, Octoprint, trenitalia, e-banking portals, phpMyAdmin)
Bookmarks feature does not work properly
Difficult to open EPUB files directly via browser or explorer context menu, requiring several steps
Text reflow issues causing incorrect rearrangement of characters or words

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

EPUB READER requires very minimum permissions.
