Paper S3 epub reader with usb disk mode
-

Hello. I am working some time on this epub reader just for fun. But It would be nice to have some feedback and testing. If anyone with M5stack Paper S3 can test my reader app please use M5burner app and give me ideas, bug-reports, etc. here. Thanks a lot.
EDIT: for testing beta versions you can use this page (stable also included) : https://erbosoft.org/erbopubreader/ . WebFlasher available. -
Best one so far! Great job on this!
-
@dav1277 Thank you. Give me some bug reports or ideas anytime.
-
Easy to use and convenient, great as it is. One feature that could be added is dark mode/color reverse but if it would break app it's not worth the effort.
-
@adiafora Thx for comment. I will try to look at it.
-
@adiafora I create some early version with dark mode. So if you can test it for me. Download and instructions here: https://erbosoft.org/erbopubreader/
-
@erikbotta I need to read more but looks and works great. I see some additional ghosting/image retention but it's barely noticeable and corrects itself after few touches.
-
@adiafora Thx, I will look at that ghosting. Is it better for Quality display mode from in-book menu?
-
For some reason I was using only "Fast", switching to "Quality", much better. But probably at least some of the ghosting issues came from "using while charging", now I noticed that there's the difference pluged in or not.
-
@adiafora Interesting I have to say even in Balanced mode I cannot see ghosting at inverted mode. But will try difference with/without charging. 5V charger is strictly required so maybe some quickcharger problem?
BTW there’s new beta version with some fixes. Probably will make it stable next week. I have 0 testers so it goes slowly. -
@erikbotta LOL, probably this is the "user issue" on my side, I may or may not pick the wrong charger... Anyway you got any end goal in mind? At this point with working bookmarks and menus it's already fully functional app with enjoyable reading experience.
-
@adiafora Not sure. Still hunting bugs by reading books, newspapers, etc.
One future function I would like to have for myself is some dailynews ticker via wifi. But still brainstorming with myself if it can be some easy way implemented. Maybe via rss.
