I use this frequently, but the ability to manage files is terrible. When you mark a file/book as "delete from the device" ... it doesnt' i removes it from canook, but the file remains in the file system. Also, when any file is deleted, it still shows in teh interface and can't seem to find a "sync" idea where it will only show the books i have on the device and should be updatable.

This is one of the few eBook readers that utilizes Readium to display EPUB files. However, it has a couple of notable issues: 1. There's a bug in the text-to-speech (TTS) feature when used with EPUBs that include their own media narration. Instead of utilizing the embedded narration, it defaults to Google TTS. 2. In scroll mode, even a slight touch to the left or right of the screen causes an unwanted section change, which can be frustrating as it disrupts the reading position.

Since the last update aldiko gave issues so migrated to this new app. Reading colors are finally fixed. But page turn is horrible. First tap, show android notification bar (specially annoying at night) second tap shows app menu. Thirth tap finally go to the next page. Please allow gently swipe as it was in the old app. For now I use the volume button, but it is not relaxed reading.

Hi, We've done some tests on our side and haven't been able to reproduce this issue. You can start by updating the app and your Android system to the most recent version. This will probably fix the issue. If you still encounter some problems, please contact us at help@demarque.com so we can look into this. The Cantook Team
