- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12266305, 4 maande geledegood tool but drag and drop option for file opening would be nice to avoid time intensive searching in open dialog. Flaws with fullscreen mode (white empty areas at bottom with dark background). Read aloud addon does not work properly with this reader. (might be a Read aloud problem)

- Rated 3 out of 5by Manuel, 2 jaar geledeFunciona muy bien, pero antes permitia abrir los libros directamente del firefox de forma integrada, ahora solo se pueden abrir buscandolos desde examinar archivo. Deberían incluir nuevamente esa característica

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14019679, 2 jaar geledeThis is a good epub reader but I do wish that it could be configured as to whether or not previously read pages are listed in the browser's back button. (Right now it seems that they are with no option to disable that feature.)

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13475572, 3 jaar geledeOnly thing i intensely dislike about this reader is that if you mess up and close the tab, or have a crash, and you don't recall which ePub you're reading, there's no way to go back to it. Surely there should be a way to write a local state file that would remember the previous opened file and position. Setting a bookmark is fine, but doesn't solve this issue.
If that were solved, it would be 5*.
The other issue is that if highlighting and selecting text, if you're heading towards the margin rather than away and you go a tad too far it will can it as a next/previous page activation, even though there is no click. Easy to recover from, but annoying. - Rated 3 out of 5by Corentin, 3 jaar geledeIt works well to open files from a web link (HTTP://...). However, if I try to open local files (local hard drive or local network), I get endless "open with..." dialogs.
I found a dirty fix : when I open a file from the web, the address always starts with "moz-extension://697be157-ddf5-4bbd-bd58-56b42dd47af5/reader.html", so I bookmarked this address, and it launches a "blank" epubreader interface, from there I can click the top gray "open" menu, so I can browse my local computer manually. It would be a lot nicer if I could just double-click files from Windows Explorer.Developer response
posted 3 jaar geledeThe way you describe to read local epub files is the standard way. You can open the "open" dialog via the EPUBReader toolbar button. Unfortunately, due to Firefox security restrictions it's not possible to open epub files directly from the file explorer. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15145534, 3 jaar geledeIt would be nice to make use of the speech synthesizer capacities to read the book out loud with speed controls

posted 3 jaar geledeThis is already possible by using the Read Aloud extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/read-aloud/ - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13144983, 3 jaar gelede
