An update for the i2Reader has been released. The application is a Rip-Dev production and I have to say, it’s some well build software. The application works good, has many preferences and most of all it has a great GUI. The application already supports the FB2.0 format and with the new release it now also supports txt book files. A few editting functions have been added too, where you can now edit the author, title and annotation by tapping on the book. Other enhancements are:
- The Library has an index control.
- Hyphenation for English and Russian Languages has been added.
- You can choose the color of the statusbar.
- You can turn the pagenumbers on and off.
- Several bugfixes.
Like stated before, it’s a great application and can easily be adjusted to your own preferences. The application does cost some money. A license will cost you $35,- (23.81 euro ). Luckly there is a trial to try out the application, so I’d give it a look.
This fine application is available in the Installer.app through the Rip-Dev community source, see our sources page.
great app.
here is new i2reader add http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwS9o4LDz0A
still dont understand the cost of the appz developers are releasing at. dont they understand how many more people will buy these app if they are only $5 or even $10 for the really good ones?
does it read .CHM formats?
I tried mobileCHM app but that doesn’t open the CHM ebooks I have.
@Mirza, yes it’s a shame. On the other hand I can understand the developers want to cover their costs, since they put alot of time in it.
@Joe, for now only FB2.0 and TXT, let’s hope they’ll added some other formats.
I have a problem with this.. help anyone? =)
I downloaded this app and i tried to purchase a book through ebooks.com and they ask me for the PID.. does the iphone have a pid? and if not where can i download books and use it with this app? Thanks!! =)
Excuse me, but this is the STUPIDEST app I have ever seen! NOWHERE is there ANY SUGGESTION of how to ADD BOOKS TO THE LIBRARY! NONE! NOWHERE!
It comes with one book, in Russian. I don’t speak russian, and I would like to read, say maybe, another book? NO INFO ON HOW TO DO THAT! NONE!
Google? NO INFO!
Help? NONE!
YouTube? NOTHING!
Talk about truly stupid – spend $25.00 so I can read one book, in Russian? No thanks.
Agreed, the documentation on adding books is non-existent but the app does work. Here are 2 ways to add books to your i2Reader’s library:
1 launch i2Reader, tap Network/Web, tap Web surfing, visit manybooks.net, locate a book you want to download, tap download, and choose FictionBook2 format. The downloaded book should appear in your Library.
2 download i2Librarian (free download for Mac), launch i2Librarian, click Add.., chose a PDF or other support file, click Activate i2Speaker and setup a name and user credentials. Now return to your iPhone / touch and launch i2Reader, tap Network/Web, tap i2Speaker client, enter the service name you set up and the user credentials, then tap the files you want to download.
tried to find the i2librarian after unloading the zip file and i just get a lame icon on my desktop. have been trying to get this pos to work and am frustrated can anyone help me!!!!???
this is the STUPIDEST app! I want my money back!
