i need open local file via Allow access to file URLs

Contrary to the description this is a reader only. There is no text to speech and there is no convert to PDF. This guy is a flat out liar!

Wasn't able to use it. Tried to drag and drop an .epub book in to the window and it comes up with the circle with the line through it - won't load the book. It would be nice if you had a "load from device"/browse option instead of the drag and drop.
