iOS 26: Are various ebook reader apps compatible with it?
Apple announced the availability of iOS 26 today. Has anyone tried your ebook readers on it? If yes, how compatible are they?

BookFusion seems to be working with iOS 26 on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. I've yet to try it on my iPad Pro (2022) 12.9" with iPadOS 26.

One of the new iPadOS 26 features is Flexible Windowing. I think it replaces Slide Over / Split Screen and is one of the alternatives to Stage Manager (grouped applications) and Full Screen Apps. Stage Manager now works on all iPads with iPadOS 26.
I would not be surprised if there were not apps that didn't like being arbitrarily resized; some never even supported split screen or slide over. There are also drop down Mac-like menus; again maybe some apps do not support those. (I'm still waiting to learn of any reading app that supports user installed system fonts (I think iOS 9 introduced that feature)). Kindle, Apple Books, BookFusion seem to behave well.
