I'm just sitting here nodding along. My Kindle Paperwhite solves 99% of this for me, but for phone reading, I guess I'm a Libby and Apple Books casual. Sounds like I should check out ReadEra based on the chatter here.
My desert-island pick? 'ReadEra' on Android. It's free (no ads in the reader), handles all formats, has a clean 'On Device' view, a decent dictionary, and just works. It doesn't try to sell me anything or connect to any service. It respects that sometimes I just want to read a file on my phone without the internet. That's the pure essence of offline reading.
A lot of these apps have sneaky online requirements for initial setup or periodic checks. If you're going somewhere with zero connectivity for weeks, test your setup first. Download your books, turn on airplane mode, and see if the app still opens and lets you read after a few days. I did this before a camping trip and was shocked when one popular app demanded a login refresh after a week.
Can we talk about annotation sync? A good offline app should save your highlights and notes locally, then silently sync them to the cloud when you're back online. Both Kindle and Google Play Books excel here. You can highlight in a tunnel, and it'll be on your laptop when you get to the office. Apps that don't do this feel broken in the modern age.
Ever lose your place because an app's progress sync got confused offline? It's the worst. I've learned to manually bookmark if I'm switching devices offline. The most robust apps treat the local progress as the source of truth and merge carefully when syncing. In my experience, Kindle and Apple Books handle this edge case better than most.

Has anyone used FBReader? It's open-source and supports a ton of formats. I sideload all my books via Calibre, and FBReader just sees them on my device's storage. The offline experience is, by definition, perfect because the app has no online features to break. It's purely a file viewer. The customization is deep, maybe too deep for some, but you can make it look exactly how you want. For the tech-curious who want total control, it's a fantastic choice.
Sometimes, you need to just search your entire offline library for a quote or a character name. Calibre Companion and some of the more powerful managers excel here. The ability to instantly search the full text of hundreds of downloaded books, without internet, is a power-user feature that's incredibly useful.
I need something that handles technical PDFs with lots of diagrams and annotations. For that, the absolute best free offline app on iPad is Foxit PDF Reader. It's not a cozy novel-reading app with warm lighting modes; it's a workhorse. It opens massive PDFs instantly, retains all formatting, and lets you highlight, comment, and draw offline. I use it for academic papers, board game rulebooks, and manuals. The sync with their cloud is optional but useful. If your 'books' are often complex PDFs that other e-reader apps struggle to render properly, Foxit is the unsung hero. It turns your iPad into a truly portable reference library.
I keep a 'commute' collection in my Kindle app. It's just a handful of books I'm actively reading or plan to read next. Having a small, curated list reduces decision fatigue when I'm rushing out the door. I just open the app and my current book is right there, downloaded and ready.
Organization within the app is as important as the app itself. Whether it's collections, tags, or just a 'currently reading' shelf, a little curation makes the offline experience seamless and inviting.
Finally, think about the future. Are you building a library you'll have for years? Kindle's ecosystem is stable but proprietary. Apple Books is tied to Apple. Google Play Books is tied to Google. Sideloaded EPUBs in a generic reader app are the most future-proof, as EPUB is an open standard. Choosing an app that respects and manages your personal EPUB files gives you the most freedom to switch apps or platforms later without losing your annotations or having to break DRM.
The Nook app from Barnes & Noble is still kicking. It's perfectly fine for offline reading. You buy or get a free ebook from their store, download it to the app, and you're good. I find their store layout a bit clunky, but the reading experience itself is solid and doesn't need data.
