Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

5 ★Not a fan Update I changed my opinion Is actually a really good app 🥰
5 ★Been using this app on 4 different phones the experience is one of a kind. Simple to use quick to understand and with enough options to make our readings comfortable. 5 out of 5 no questions.
5 ★Add more dictionary support other than Dictan. The Dictan app is completely non user friendly and FBreader doesn't give option to use any other. UPDATE: Thank you for your response and the solution.
5 ★The best reader. Clean, simple, has extensions for every format. Recently bought premium version, just to express my gratitude to the devs
1 ★I have been using FBR for a long time. It was the go to app for a bookworm like me. Unfortunately had to change my phone, and reinstall all Apps. FBR was the 5th or 6th App downloaded and installed. It simply does not work, it does not identify or add the books, it does not show the books, it has been crashing regularly, and making life miserable in general. At first thought, something wrong with phone, so uninstalled and reinstalled it (thrice). Nutshell, Bye Dodo, it was nice knowing you.
1 ★Dear FBReader... I paid the payment of 90 rupees two times today but still I didn't get any upgradation intimation. WHY?? Where did my money go then?? You cheaters.. Give me my money back or upgrade me to Premium for 2 years. Or else I will complain to the concerned government department.
4 ★Like others, pretty disappointed with this recent update, which messed up the FB TTS reader plugin's ability to easily work with the main app. I don't have paid version and I'm hesitant to buy premium for the TTS because I liked the free plugin so much. The plugin was nicely customizable and I was able to get the accent and voice exactly how I wanted it. Not sure if I can count on the premium version for the same. Luckily I've been able to still use the plugin with the app, but it's much more tedious to set up, especially if I want to swap tabs and pause or rewind/fast-forward. If any one can let me know if the premium read-aloud is exactly the same as the FB TTS, I would appreciate it. (with access to the google TTS voices and acents) If this isn't fixed or is made worse, I'll have to move to another app for the convenience, though I've yet to find one that has the right amount of customization as the plugin.
3 ★The app itself is good. The UI could be more straightforward, but everything works as expected. One thing bothers me, though. Why on earth would you change the background of the app icon to blue? Almost every other app (including all google apps) on Oreo 8.1 has a white background and only FBReader is gonna stick out like a sore thumb. Why?
5 ★My go to ebook reader. I used to use google play books and kindle then discovered this and the plethora of great public domain books. Many of the classic adventure novels are in the public domain and tons of other interesting stuff to read. If you want to read a lot of new releases, not sure how this app works for those. But thats not my thing. Also use the TTS plugin along with googles British male voice. It does sound a bit machine-like but it doesn't bother me. It's like my own low tech AI reading to me in a soothing modulated voice. And he's got a British accent, what's not to love about that. Anyway, great app. And great paired with the TTS plugin if you are a person that doesn't get hung up TTS voices not sounding human enough.
1 ★Very poor UX. It's very difficult to navigate around after opening a book. Even adding my personal catalog is a pain.
4 ★I specifically chose this app for the ability to have all my bookmarks available when i needed them. So i'm satisfied with what it offers. I use the app on 2 devices(phone and tablet) and the thing i'd also like to have is the ability to seamlessly resume my reading on the page i left on the other device
3 ★Fbreader is a decent basic reader app but navigation of book catalogs isn't straightforward and therefore tedious. This makes the premium version a big improvement. HOWEVER. You will never be able to take this paid app from one device to another should you get a new phone or tablet. The site and developer give useless directions on how to make this happen but in the end they just want another $6. Which is why I can't post this on the premium app with my new phone.
