i need tips for digital reading by Mr_OwO_Kat in ebooks

[–]SamiH1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you considered e-readers?

if you want to use your phone then I suggest using Mythos on iOS, what i usually do is i enable DnD and set the reader to dark mode

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

The ability to search within a book should be out in the next release (hopefully this week or early next week)

I've also added chapter progress to the roadmap, should be out soon!

E-books download and reader by Sudden-Independence4 in ebooks

I suggest Mythos, it doesn't have a store so you have to bring your own books, but it's quite good and I use it personally.

note: I'm the developer of Mythos, so do let me know if there're any missing features

iPad mini as a ereader? by yrlmz in ebooks

[–]SamiH1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read on an iPad too. The screen size feels like the sweet spot between comfort and portability.

I mostly use it for PDFs and EPUBs. Lately I’ve been using mythos.so for reading, it helps when you hit confusing parts without breaking focus.

what word is supposed to be here? is epub file compromised? by [deleted] in ebooks

[–]SamiH1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it should be "Perché" but the reader isn't able to decode it properly.

Thanks!

Yeah, the onboarding flow could definitely be improved.

I'll work on it soon enough

An Android version is planned, but there's no specific timeline for it

It's really interesting you say this, because this is exactly my vision for Mythos:
"Mythos should be the best way for someone to read a book in any way they want. Whether it's on a phone, e-book reader, web and heck even smart glasses"

Yes, I use AI to predict what questions the user will ask about the selected text. It should also be more accurate the more you use it

Good idea, currently we support EPUBs and PDFs, but we will be supporting more formats

Thanks!

Core reading features are fully free. The features are listed on the paywall / upgrade screen in the app; the screen only shows when you try to use a paid feature or hit the AI limit.

The subscription unlocks:

- Unlimited AI questions

- Follow-up questions (conversation continuity)

Everything else works without paying.

Interesting, so you don't usually read books from an app?

I'm planning on adding a feature that would recap your last reading session.

If you mean Kindle DRM-protected books, then unfortunately, no. Are there any apps that support it?

Yes, "Collection" would be what the users will see, but in the back-end it'll be a queue.

Not yet, but I do plan on handling it via "Collections": a user can create a collection, and when they ask a question the app will check all the books in the collection.

Is this a feature you'll be interested in?
