Couple of Marvin queries

chookie2 · 09-25-2014, 07:19 PM

1 : is there any way to have the clock/ time visible while reading in Marvin as in ibooks?

2: does Marvin have black page / white print option for night reading? ( i use this in Summer as light attracts insects when reading in bed .....screens on house do not prevent tiny insects attracted to light.) light off and black page / white print is also great for camping for same reason.

3: is it my ipad or is Marvin always slow to respond to taps to return to library from book being read ...sometimes need many taps before library/ home icon appears. Doesn't happen any other time just when book is open.

Thanks from Chookie

1. Yes. http://blog.marvinapp.com/post/71422489099

2. Yes. Tap the "Aa" button on the bottom of the reading screen, then navigate left or right to "themes." You can specify 3 different themes and choose your own background and text colours.

3. Sounds like your iPad. I don't have this problem on an iPhone 5.

@chookie2: I'm aware of some performance issues on iOS 8 when opening a book and navigating to chapters. I'm working on it.
