The extension does work. To open a book, click on the extension icon. After you open the book, the navigation (to turn pages forward and backward) controls are located in the middle on the right and left sides of your screen. They are barely noticeable. Or you can use your left and right arrow keys. To open the setting, hover over the very thin gray bar at the bottom of your screen. Overall good extension. I give it 4 stars because the navigation controls are hard to see.

It's not a full fledged tons of features reader, but it does its job and has enough settings to make it comfortable. To people complaining it doesn't work: open the file via the extension button (pin to the taskbar, click the ereader icon, click the folder icon, magic). If you just copy paste the epub link in the browser, it won't work. Read the FAQ if something doesn't work before giving 1* ratings.

It works, but when I tried to open an epub file with more than 1k chapters and move to another chapter, there is the popup that says "The ebook is incomplete and can unfortunately not be opened."

Doesn't work. The browser just saves .epub file. There is no option to read it in the browser

dont know how to use it. refuse to open any epub file

Sam C 2025-05-09

If only this extension refrained from trying to open Libby audiobooks.

Alison 2025-02-09

definitely the best epub reader just because it can be used with the extension readaloud which has piper voices supported so you can download a realistic sounding ai voice to read for you.

Alex 2025-01-05

This does as it says. You can read EPUB books, and that's all it claims to do, you don't need to install any programs or nothing. I used this for a long time and it works just as it says. You can bookmark, and unlike installed programs (Calibre, for example) multiple copies are not made. My only gripe is when going in to fullscreen, you need to press F5 to reset it, but that is a minor issue.

This review is More about the laxity on part of google rather then developer of this epubreader extension. Extension works great. BUT when I click on the link to the product website provided by Google store it goes to a site and google browser throws a notice that says --> " www.epubread.com doesn’t support a secure connection. Attackers can see and change information you send or receive from the site. It's safest to visit this site later if you're using a public network. There is less risk from a trusted network, like your home or work Wi-Fi. You might also contact the site owner and suggest they upgrade to HTTPS SO google with your humongous size and power can you please convince the developer of this extension to use HTTPS website? Then please provide that link on your Google store. Also please automatically check all requirements when a developer submits the extension on your store. That means enforce through auto check this requirement for HTTPS link. How hard can that be? In fact also add another requirement for using a digital signature for uploading ALL extension on the google store. This is in context of the man in the middle hack done by hackers to the "Cyberhaven's security-focused extension" It is high time for Google to now follow this hopefully effective technique (digital signature)

I'm quite amazed by the simplicity of the app. I'm also amazed by it's functionality, it seamlessly opens up EPUB files on my pc and allowes me to customize the way how the EPUB looks. I highly recommend this tool.

Doesn't work all of a sudden: I get an "This file is not a valid epub" for every epub I try to open. When I uninstall it, chrome builtin epub reader works.

Taylor Made Daydreams 2024-05-08

On Download destination (for many years and in March of 2024) I was able to click "read in browser" and the book would pop up today in May It's not working at all, this sucks

Jonah Muller 2024-01-26

This is exactly what is says. It's an EPUB viewer, and I like that it works for all the books I've tried on it. One bit of advice is to increase column width, though.

More difficult than EASY to use! This is not a really EASY extension. when download my ebooks or free ebooks that does not give an option to download to my computer library so it won't overload my tab. This is very hard to use and when I do dowload it down it gave me gibberish so I could not reay any of bonus or extended ebooks. Mobi is so much EASIER to use so I am not sure why you EPUB should be a replacement for Mobi when Mobi has no issue. Lost all of my extended ebooks and bonus ebooks so I am not very happy with EPUB!

Arman Karimi 2023-11-19

it's not perfect, but gets the job done.

george neegus 2023-10-20

Рівно те, що потрібно для читання. Кастомизації шріфту, фону та розташування тексту вистачає. Дякую!!!

Rasterized (scanned) boor rendering like I had 20/200 vision while Ebook readers in Android handle similar ebooks with no issues. Ergonomics better than those in Android phones, though (added one star for it).
