OK, but you've been singing high praise of MapleRead, recommending it left & right. If it brought you to
this degree of enthusiasm, I think its developer deserves to get your purchase, as a small thank-you and a piece of encouragement to continue developing the app, whether you intend to use it full-time or not. Again, if its price was
high, that would be different, but what is it? Five bucks? It's really more in the nature of a
tip, rather than a "purchase price".
I bought all available MapleRead versions years ago, knowing full well I would
not be using it as my main e-reader app. After getting locked in iOS via Marvin, and locked in Android via Moon+ Reader, I know I will not "make that mistake again" – I mean, using a
single-platform app as my main e-reader. It just
has to be a
cross-platform app the next time around, and so, my hopes are currently pinned on BookFusion. Despite all that, I bought all available MapleRead licences, to show appreciation to the developer. Who knows – maybe if enough people do that, he will also start developing MapleRead for Android and for the web?
