Being a book addict has been my favorite thing for a very long time. I read hundreds of books annually. As much as I would die to read, it was not all the time that I enjoyed the process (until I met this application). Sometimes, the pdf document was too tiny to read, and zooming in and out of it dissolves the sweetness of reading. I bet you have experienced that. Other times, the font of the ebook document irritates the eyes. These are among the nuisance that had my best share of hatred. Thanks to eReaderPrestigio for making the perfect reader that solved all my problems.

eReader Prestigio is an ebook reader for Android (iOS users can use FBreader, It has similar functionality to eReader Prestigio) to open any document in one of the following formats: epub, epub3, fb2, fb2.zip, mobi, pdf, html, doc, rtf, txt, and Adobe DRM. And even better, it will let you download thousands of free books directly from the app itself.

The app’s interface is very comfortable and user-friendly. You can quickly access your library, download any book you want from the Prestigio store with just two taps, and easily change the app’s language from the top left corner of the screen.

Thanks to eReader Prestigio, all book lovers will be able to enjoy the great literary classics as much as I do (or even more).

Although this app is a sweetheart, you may not be able to create an account with them. That has been a bug which hasn’t been fixed as I am writing this article.

8. Tired of reading? Let this app recite for you.

Switch on Text-To-Speech and let the application read the textbook file for you as you just listen! I use this feature whenever my eyes get tired of staring at the screen for so long (mostly at night) and at such a time headphones come in very handy.

Alexa text-to-speech output is the popular (free) engine that most readers use with this app. Listening to Alexa was kind of awkward at first. This robot just recites plainly without any emotions, unlike human-recited audiobooks. But as time went by, this engine (especially the voice of the female) became my favorite one. I even learned correct English pronunciation from it.

9. Inbuilt dictionary
There is no need to close the book and find a dictionary. This app has an in-built one already!
This feature has been my best new-word teacher, thanks to the app.

10. Synchronize your reading and be updated

So far, this has been the best app, in fact, my best app of the year. You may say I am writing all this to advertise for the company…haha I may wish for that to somehow be true, but sadly it’s not.
