Hi I think if you will read through the weekend, which is 2 days, you will pretty surely know if you like the app or not. And then you have even another 5 days.
Not quite. The thing is, there needs to be time to test the CSS. Reading one book that may work is not enough testing.

When it's released, will justRead fully support ePub 2 and ePub 3?

That is good news. It means it will be easy to switch from my iPhone/iPad and Libra 2.

I don't always remember the name of the book I'm reading. So having the title displayed in the footer would be good.

Yes, this will be added as an option (also chapter and name of the author).

Name of the author along with the title would be a nice touch.

Can you make the author display an option as you may not have room for the title and the author on one line in the footer? Thanks.

This will be optionable with user selecting what (author, series, title, chapter) and where (top, bottom) he wants to see it.

I just watched the video. I assume the iPad version will have a one-page view (one column, not two) to read while device is in a vertical position.

A one column view may work for an iPad mini, but I would need a two columns for a 13" iPad Pro.

After looking at the iPad video, it looks like there is no hyphenation. If that's the case, can you please add in hyphenation. Thanks.

One other feature that's a necessity is the ability to increase the weight of the fonts like Kobo and Kindle can do.

Yes, the Mini in a vertical position is much like other epub readers and about the size and weight of a real book.

Hi, for ipad, the number of columns (1 or 2) will be optionable for both landscape and portrait.
Hyphenation is in the app already present, there are a lot of different options, not every one of them is on in the video.
The weight increase is already there, for normalized text.
