Speed reading for ePub on Android?

karanvasudeva · 08-23-2013, 11:00 AM

Hi all,

I'm the developer of an iOS ePub speed-reading app, which I shall not name for the moment (lest this should look like underhanded self-promotion).

I have been looking for a fun and worthwhile project as a meaningful excuse to get into the Android market. I'm wondering if there is a market for a nice speed-reading app on Android, so that porting my iOS app makes sense.

Would such an app interest anyone? And if so, are your speed-reading needs being met by an existing app? I've only found an app called 'Speed Reader' so far, and it looks a bit simplistic. Are there other apps with ePub support if anyone knows?

Thanks!

I'd probably be interested in an app like this once my N7 arrives. Could you shoot me a PM with the name of your iOS app?

Thanks Mivo, I'll send you a PM.

Thanks! This looks interesting, actually. I don't doubt that this would also sell in the Android sphere.
