Favorites
Recent
By Author
By Title
By Series
By Tag
File tree


And By Title further sub-divides by first letter of Title name (but it ignores things like A or The if it's the first word in a Title). (It's a feature request outstanding for a while that FBReader use the same practice for By Author, with the first letter of the Author's last name the selector.)

What it doesn't offer is an All Books display, and that's what I'm specifically trying to get. It has a Search function I can use to drill down and find things, assuming I recall the correct title or author, but that's not the problem I'm trying to solve.

Ultimately, it's about "What's the fastest way to do this?", where "this" is scroll though a list of books on device to see what's there.
Perhaps use a different reader just for browsing then?

I'm not sure what formats Moon+ Reader supports but it has an All Books display mode (I always use EPUB on Android and iOS).

I'm not overly familiar with options on Android as I'm primarily on iOS and my preferred reading app (Marvin) already displays all books by default.
