Got it.

While it's possible to adjust brightness via iOS control center, that blurs out the display so it's hard to gauge the actual effect. I usually have to go back and readjust a couple more times to get the brightness right. With Stanza and Marvin, adjusting brightness to the desired level is super easy with this feature.

Disabling animation and customizable tap zones are the most absolutely critical for me though. Also, do you have an ETA on the tap zone? I saw that it was requested 2 years ago but it seems like such a low priority since it still hasn't been implemented.
We were addressing most of the other features that were requested previously at a higher rate . We just released Vertical Writing, Spotlight Search , Obfuscated Fonts Support & More . https://www.reddit.com/r/BookFusion/...ing_spotlight/

We plan on moving to adding native CBR/CBZ and other smaller features next but should be able to add tackle this task later this year. Now that I have gathered the remaining features that other Marvin readers really like we can prioritize them. We will post a poll to see what the readers determine we should get implemented first.

This is good to know. Thank you all for the input in having the ability to change the brightness outside of the menu with just gestures. This will be added once we work on custom tap zones.
