FolioReader-Android is a Java and Kotlin EPUB reader and parser framework for Android apps. It provides an embeddable e-book reading view with highlighting, notes, themes, and customizable fonts.

Use cases

  • embed an epub reader in my android app
  • parse epub files on android
  • add text highlighting and notes to an e-book reader
  • support day and night reading modes
  • let users change fonts and text size in a reader
  • open epub books from assets or raw resources
  • build a reading app with last-read position tracking

When to choose

  • you need a ready-made, embeddable EPUB reading experience on Android
  • you want highlighting, notes, and search out of the box
  • you need epub parsing plus a reader UI rather than just parsing

When to avoid

  • you need PDF support or text-to-speech, which are unimplemented
  • you need media overlays syncing text with audio
  • you need a maintained project with frequent updates or iOS/other platforms
  • you only need to extract epub metadata without a reader UI
