It takes a lot of technical fiddling to make fully justified text look good and without the awkward word spacing that is often produced by an auto composition (some lines must be individually left-justified and following text adjusted accordingly).
Most who convert text to various formats can't be bothered (I exclude my own wee house, which takes great care in every format conversion to rectify word spacing in justified formats line-by-line), so generally, left justification is a cleaner read. You very soon become comfortable with the ragged right (with no end-of-line words broken by hyphens, wich so often annoyingly happens in print, and is really annoying).
Letters and postcards from home have ragged right edges and we all love those, no?
My advice ... get used to it.
I believe some devices automatically justify. Thankfully, mine doesn't.
Very best. Neil
