NeoSoar eBooks, PDF & ePub reader App Reviews

After installing iOS8 books on the shelves became invisible. Can it be fixed, please?

Please do something to make the books visible!

on the shelf all the books disappeared after upgrade ios 8

I like the app:), it is pretty and handy, and it has many advantages comparatively with iBooks:)

Update (June 2015) In case if youre looking for an excellent reader for foreign DRM protected books - therere no alternatives (frankly - tested absolutely everything). But therere still enough things to improve: - absence of one/two column reading selection for Landscape mode (iPad) - NSB forcibly switches into the two-column; - absence of indents settings (vertical and horizontal); Also a few bugs were discovered (insignificant but notable). -------------- Update 2014.08.11. After all I had to move to another reader app (Marvin). Why: lack of sync between the devices; a bit obsolete design; speed wasnt improved to acceptable. Everything changes and recently Ive discovered a few significant updates from Neosoar team. Looking forward for the rest because DRM is still the serious thing which Marvin didnt include yet. ------- Update: Still havent found an alternative reader with such impressive bunch of options! Nevertheless, some features implementation + bug fixes would make this app much more outstanding: Features (in addition to my previous list): * Cyrillic support in order to use program for non-English books (in order to work with internal and Wiki/Dictionary search); * change Translate button location (move it closer to start); * maybe this would be better to decrease sync intervals and logic (now it turns on even when Im switching between the apps); * Select an appropriate folder for the new book (purchased or added externally). Bug-fixes: * When you adding a custom note in landscape mode, program forcibly use portrait mode; * Note icon on the right top is absolutely useless but sometimes overlaps a few letters of the opened book. ______________ First of all - million thanks for adequate bunch of reading options in one app! I was looking quite a long for reader where I can use convenient dictionary inline, Retina support, fullscreen reading mode and search engine. The best thing which was most important for me is integrated translation via Google Translation directly! It is unique feature which works like I was hoping. However some things can be significantly improved: - processing engine is not fast enough; book opening and page rotation are pretty slow (compared with a few other apps); - FB2 and non-DRM MOBI support is really useful and would be great of some day it will appear; - day/night reading mode is absent; - images within the book are displaying incorrectly - on iPhone it looks like picture divided between 2 pages. - cross platform sync (especially if you seriously planning to compete with Kindle); - more stable behavior; currently Im facing with unexpected falls when switching between apps (usually when network is unavailable); FIXED - the last opened book must be automatically loaded to avoid overburden actions. Theres also small bug was found. When you try to select single word or string on the top of page, you dont see context menu to select option. Nevertheless, Im generally satisfied with EPUB books reading using NeoSoarBook!

A good app. Tools are quit slow, expecially if underlining is needed

Got the update but still didnt get my books back,decided to uninstall the app.will use the native one of Apple.

Crash

Hi, this app is very interesting! To do: password for some categories, let move the categories up or down. Thanks for Your effort!

This app surprised me and is the best book app in the app store right now

I dont know if its a bug on my end or a recent update, but for the last 2-3 weeks, neosoar has crashed about every 10-15 minutes. Before, it was rock solid, dependable.

This is a great app for reading. Had been using it for the past year. However, when I upgraded to iPad Pro, the app closed the moment I open. I cant use it now. It is a five stars if it is fixed.

Ive tried many ePub readers and so far this is my favorite. It does the best job of rendering the output correctly, even better than iBooks. While it may not be the flashiest or have the most customizations, its obvious that a lot of thought was put into the design. Some ePub readers have default margins that are too wide and that arent customizable. Or if they do allow you to customize, it often throws off the rendering. Reading the manual explained how to delete a note. Double-tapping to bring up the delete option is not obvious, but it works for me now that I know. Otherwise the interface is intuitive and easy to use. I almost wish the author would charge a fee for this app because then I would feel more confident that it would be around and supported well into the future. I havent seen any in app advertising and hope I dont because that would ruin it for me. Kudos to the developer!

Never had an issue. Was recommended this as one of the best readers, and I read all my epubs with it. I really appreciate it!

I always lose my place in long pdf readers so

This is a great ebook reader, however, the book cover image has 50% of the picture and 50% all white. It does not look good at all. I would also like there is a setting which can select all books for moving and deleting. I have a lot of books, to move or delete one at a time is very tedious.

cannot sync dropbox with ipad pro. useless if i cannot import files.

After iBooks stopped working for me (Apple botched my iCloud storage, so I cant store anything there anymore, which kind of hoses iBooks) I went looking for ePub readers. This is the best one Ive found so far. Pros - Simple, intuitive bookshelf interface (click a book to open it). - Free and fully functional. - No advertisements. Cons - Does not allow you to change reader font, other than enlarge/shrink (cant change to a different font family).

Used and worked okay for 6 months then got a new iPhone and it wouldnt work at all kept closing. Then it started to do the same on my iPad. Uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. Very disappointing since its unusable now.
