Quire — A modern e-book reader

Quire is a reader for books you already have. Point it at a file or a folder and it builds you a shelf: EPUB, PDF, CBZ and CBR, all in one place, all stored on your device. There is no account to create, no store to browse, and nothing to subscribe to. A PAGE, AND NOTHING ELSE The reader is deliberately quiet. No toolbars hovering over the text, no banners, no badges — just the page, with a slim progress bar along the bottom. One tap brings up the settings; one tap puts them away again. MAKE IT READ THE WAY YOU LIKE Font, size, line spacing, margins and page colour are all yours to set, and they carry across every book. Highlight a passage, attach a note to it, and it will still be there next time you open the book — along with the page you stopped on. A SHELF THAT LOOKS AFTER ITSELF Import a book and Quire fills in what it can: cover art, the blurb, the publication year and a genre or two. Search your shelf by title or author, filter by genre, and pick up whatever you had open from Continue Reading. LIGHT, DARK, OR NEITHER Follow your phone's theme or pin it to light or dark. The reader keeps its own page colours, so a dark interface does not force a dark page. BUILT TO BE LEFT ALONE Everything lives on your device. There are no adverts, no tracking, no analytics and no sign-in. The only time Quire goes online is to look up cover art and descriptions for the books you have imported — and it works perfectly well if you never let it.
