How can we improve the reading experience? Have you tried the Open Library Reader app? Looking forward to your advice!

Thank you!

- mek + open library




It’s been a few months, but here are some issues I had using the web reader on an iPad (didn’t realize there’s an app):

- the reading controls would overlap with the safe area/home screen navigation bar

- pinch-zooming on a page would sometimes glitch out and scroll to a different page

- the slider to change pages was too sensitive on a touchscreen, and I also kept tapping it by accident

I really like openlibrary, and it’s let me read some books I couldn’t find access to anywhere else - thanks for your work on it!


Oh, didn’t know it existed. I’ll have to download it and report back. Thanks.
