I've been using this app for years now. Aldiko is easy to used, simple and very neat. I can customize my favorite book etc. but, when there is a picture in a book, that's when it started to annoyed me. I can't zoom in, or save the picture. It irks me. maybe in the future your users are free to save or zoom?

It looks beautiful. All the covers look really nice in the library (or shelves). However, I really can't find a way to go back to the library when reading. I have to exit the app, then launch it again to get to the library. It is very frustrating and a waste of time. And there is no longer a Read Aloud option. This helped me listen to my books while travelling and I couldn't hold my phone. I am honestly quite disappointed in this new version. The features that made me loyal to it are now gone.

Hi, to go back to the home page of the app, when you are in a book, simply tap the center of the screen and tap the arrow that will appear on the top left corner of the screen. The "Read Aloud" option will also be available by clicking the three dots on the top right corner of the screen after tapping the center of the screen. That Aldiko team.

Not the best interface. I can't get the settings to where I can either see the whole page (especially when vertical scroll is turned off) - that bottom progress bar obscures lines of text - and not accidentally hit the screen and jump back to the previous chapter. Then when I get back to the chapter I was reading, I have to find my place all over again. Aggravating. Edit: Reduced from 2 to 1 star. I found the interface so aggravating that I bought the hard copy.
