Moonreader Pro. It's an ebook readers for Android. The Pro/paid version has any feature you could ask for:

  • reads just about any file format (epub/mobi/pdf/etc)
  • has text-to-speech (everything can now be an audio book)
  • you can add annotations/notes/bookmarks (and color code them)
  • the annotations/notes/etc will sync to a remote server (Dropbox, your own self-hosted webdav, etc)
  • it can pull/fetch books from your own remote server
  • where you are in the book is also synced to the remote server, meaning you can read on your phone, but switch to a tablet and immediately continue.

Any feature, I wish an ebook reader would have - moon reader delivered (but finding these features is not intuitive).

    Honestly I’ve use it, it’s good but uses far my resources that it should.

    KOreader is the FOSS alternative and while its interface sucks. Its reader is excellent.

    Interesting, I'll take a look at it. It seems to tick all the same boxes as moonreader, but also works on Linux and Mac.

    I was curious if KOreader worked on iPhones (AFAIK, it does not), but a FOSS alternative did, readest. I'll probably take a look at that too.

    I bought the pro version of this app years ago, but after jailbreaking my Kindle and installing the open source KOreader on it, I've moved to the KOreader app on Android and Readest app on Ios as it comes with built in reading position sync and it can directly connect to my Calibre OPDS server to download the books
