Not so in Yomu EBook Reader.

Not only can you simply read easily and excellently with Yomu EBook Reader, you can also use find and look up for within the text itself. The app allows you to search for individual words or phrases within your current text, making it easier than ever to find that one amazing quote you can’t remember in Game of Thrones.[sc name=”quote” text=”The app allows you to search for individual words or phrases within your current text, making it easier than ever to find that one amazing quote you can’t remember in Game of Thrones.”]

To make it even more interesting, the app allows you to freely edit text and titles, allowing you to make custom designations for individual books within your collection. Similarly, you can make custom annotations easily and fluidly from within individual texts at the click of a button, allowing you to make notes for yourself on future re-reads, or to save some piece of information for later research.

With any EBook reader, it is important to be able to source texts from a variety of locations; thankfully, Yomu EBook Reader excels in this department, allowing you to add EBook files from wherever you like, including your own dropbox and googledrive.

What makes Yomu EBook Reader such an interesting app is not so much that it does its job so well – and it does! – It’s that, despite being just a simple utility app, it manages to include so many other functions as to enable a user complete control of their reading experience.
