November 2016 plans update
We are very sorry that FBReader for iOS is not released yet. We are working on this version and will publish it as soon as possible. We also plan to update FBReader Book Network soon, by adding custom shelves and synchronisation of OPDS catalogs list.
September 2016 plans update
Our main focus is currently on the iOS version. It will be released for users this autumn. Ok, the reader already works, and I'm reading my books on my iPhone. But some important features are still missing, we want to release a more or less complete version.
Another line of activity is related to the Book Network. Book metainfo editing and synchronisation, custom shelves in web interface, OPDS catalogs sync, multiple books operations, etc.
As for the reader itself, our next steps are Goodreads integration an more bookmarks/notes features. Some reading statistics might be added as well.
Our plans: status update
FBReader for Android 2.7 (both free and Premium) will be released by end of July 2016. This version will fix a number of annoying issues related to migration to Android 6:
- “Lost” bookmarks for books on SD card will be restored.
- It will be possible to open books located on SD card via external file browsers, and open books downloaded in Chrome.
Since version 2.7 updates will be only available for Android 4.0 and higher.
FBReader for iOS is still under development, we plan to release first public beta by end of summer 2016.
FBReader 2.6.9 + format plugins 1.5.8
One more minor update for both free and premium versions and for all format plugins fixes a number of issues including
- reading position saving
- highlighting rendering
- sync issues.
We do not plan release any major updates of FBReader for Android until our first version for iOS will be released. (iOS version expected this Spring.)
