For Android, I’ve found Moon+ Reader is a great app for local books and the native Kindle app is great for Amazon books – both support highlighting and note syncing. I’m aware the new release-only model for ‘The Alpha King’s Mind-Reading Maid’ is a subscription service, but that platform’s app has all the annotation tools built-in and uses them cleverly in the story – the heroine has to literally read the king’s private notes and highlighting as part of her power to read people.

I’ve put many Android eReaders through their paces, and while there are many readers that handle highlighting well, Moon+ Reader Pro is my favorite for making notes. It has a simple, one-hand optimized design for Android, loads of customization (including all different colors for highlighting), supports sticky notes, hand writing, and even makes audio notes.

Another Android eReader that is good for reading books on your Android phone or Android tablet and leaving highlights and annotations is 'ReadEra' – A clean eReader that supports EPUB, PDF and MOBI files and has some good e-book annotations capabilities. If you're an academic or tend to read a lot of PDF e-book files and you take a lot of notes while reading those e-books, then 'Xodo' is a good option. It has a lot of features including highlighting and annotating in PDF files – you can even type and handwrite annotations and highlight text precisely.

I am a self professed ebook fanatic. For highlighting and annotating, I prefer Lithium, a super lightweight and very powerful e-book reader with a very minimalistic design that doesn’t get in the way of reading books. For other ebook readers, I use Google Play Books which is great for sync’ing between devices, although note taking is fairly basic but does the job very well. Last but not least, I also use Aldiko which offers a great balance of features and ease of use of annotation. The annotation functionality is very straightforward and excellent.

KOReader: The Professional Annotation Tool. The best tool for power users, if you need it. It allows for advanced PDF annotation and exports all highlights in various formats. Libby by OverDrive for lending books from libraries, which allows for fair highlighting of borrowed books. BookFusion, a free annotation tool that also syncs to the cloud and even allows for shared notes with friends and colleagues. Each of these powerful apps meets the needs of users who fall somewhere on the spectrum between casual and heavy usage.

I am a casual reader, and the Amazon Kindle app is great for me. It has simple highlighting and note taking, and links up with Goodreads which is great for a social aspect. FBReader is another favorite of mine, with a plugin architecture to extend the app to include annotations, for example. It is not as polished as some of the other e-readers out there, but it is open-source, and highly customizable. Perfect Viewer is a great app for manga and comics readers, and supports annotations in PDF files, but it is not as popular as the other two for general readers.

Which book readers allow highlighting in novels for notes?

4 Answers2025-06-05
For something simple to highlight with and notes to be synced to all your devices then BookFusion is recommended. As noted above Scribd’s app does allow highlighting and notes on PDF and EPUB books but this is very limited compared to BookFusion. Simple enough to use for casual users who just want to highlight a few passages and move on.

Do best ebook platforms allow offline reading?

8 Answers2025-08-19
Oh the humanity if we couldn't read our books offline, we'd probably revolt. As it stands, offline reading of stories and information is a basic accessibility feature, and (big) companies know that not everyone has reliable, affordable internet connection all the time. They’d like you to read their e-books everywhere, not just when you have phone signal. Which is why they’ve set things up so that by default you get to download the book. The option to Remove Download is secondary, but they want to make it easy for you to experience the better way of reading a book – that which is stored locally on your device and ready to go at a moment’s notice.

How to highlight and annotate novels on Kindle Paperwhite?

9 Answers2025-07-21
It looks mostly the same to me as it did in the early days of our books, presses to drag open menus with small text. If I am typing out a note that is longer than a few words, I have a tendency to lose my place. Because of this, serious academic annotation is still best done on a tablet with a real stylus. The Paperwhite is perfect for casual underlining and 'wow' moments of insight. Not for detailed, hand written marginalia.

How to bookmark a pdf on Android devices?

10 Answers2025-07-08
I often read PDFs on my Android phone, and bookmarking is super handy for keeping track of important pages. Here's how I do it: I usually open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader since it's my go-to app. Once the file is open, I navigate to the page I want to bookmark. At the top right, there's a bookmark icon—it looks like a ribbon. I tap it, and voilà, the page is bookmarked. To view all my bookmarks later, I just tap the side menu, select 'Bookmarks,' and it shows me the list. Other apps like Xodo or Google PDF Viewer have similar features, though the exact steps might vary slightly. The key is to look for the bookmark icon or check the app's help section if you're unsure.

Best ebook calibre plugins for manga readers?

10 Answers2025-07-28
As far as the plugin ecosystem goes, it feels somewhat DIY. So you search up a plugin to add support for a new ebook format and you find a GitHub repository with 3 stars and a last commit from 2018. It works perfect for a while and then it breaks Calibre in an update. It’s a bit of a trade-off as the official Calibre plugin index is much safer but there are less plugins of a niche nature.

Can you install apps on an Android e ink e-reader?

10 Answers2026-03-28
So that’s F-Droid for you – install it on a device without Google Play Services (a task which can take some work to set up on an Android e-ink reading device) and you can choose from loads of open-source apps with a healthy focus on user privacy. So, you can have a reading device that doesn’t call home to Amazon, Google, etc. as long as you’re careful to choose appropriate reading apps. The privacy conscious reader can have a very controlled reading environment on such a device, far more so than a Kindle for example.

What are the best plugins for calibre ebook reader for manga fans?

12 Answers2025-07-09
As a manga enthusiast who spends hours organizing and reading digital comics, I've experimented with countless Calibre plugins to enhance the experience. The absolute must-have is 'Kobo Touch Extended'—it optimizes manga for e-readers by adjusting page sizes and margins. 'FanFicFare' is another gem, allowing you to download webcomics and fan-translated manga directly into Calibre. For metadata management, 'Manga Metadata' scrapes details from AniList and MyAnimeList, saving tons of manual input. If you read Japanese raw manga, 'DeDRM' helps bypass regional locks, though use it ethically. Lastly, 'Quality Check' ensures your files aren’t corrupted—vital for large manga collections. These plugins transform Calibre into a powerhouse for manga lovers.

Which pc ebook reader has the fastest loading speed for large books?

4 Answers2025-07-07
The big book club I’m part of reads only doorstoppers, so we last month benchmarked ebook readers for files longer than 500 pages. Icecream Ebook Reader in the end turned out to be the best for such files due to its background preloading. Second place was taken by Freda that in its efforts to avoid delays when reading big books streams them in chunks. The reader that lost to the two above – Google Play Books – simply stutters with files that exceed 20MB. So, when you decide to read a big book and it is sold as MOBI, first convert it to EPUB. The majority of ebook readers read EPUBs way faster.

Where to find free novels for boox ebook reader?

4 Answers2025-06-02
My Boox eReader has tons of free eBooks, including lots of audio books, from sites like Librivox, as well as the free section of Google Play Books. I also have tons of free public domain anthologies of 19th century literature by tons of now-obscure authors. Lots of writers are giving away free eBooks to their newsletter subscribers – for example, Brandon Sanderson just gave away a whole novel to his subscribers.
