eReader v1.0.161 MOD APK (Premium Unlocked)

Open a course handout, a novel and an old scanned document in the same app, and carry on reading wherever you left off. With the eReader MOD APK, your phone or tablet becomes a pocket reading device, and the premium side of the app is open from the first launch.

eReader at a glance

• Type: a reading app in the Tools category for Android
• What you do: open, browse and read books and documents stored on your device
• Developer: Android Tools (ru)
• Size: about 15M, a light download
• Suits: students, frequent readers and anyone with a mixed pile of file types

My take: this is a practical, no-frills tool. It does not try to be a bookstore or a social network, and that focus is its strength if you mainly want to read what you already own.

Main features

The core idea is flexibility with file types. Books and documents come in many formats, and the app is built to open PDF, FB2, EPUB and more, so you are not forced to install one reader per format. For a student who receives lecture notes in one format and novels in another, that saves a lot of switching.

You can also read without a connection. Once files are on your device, you can open them on a train, during a flight or anywhere the signal is poor, and the information you save stays with you.

Getting new material is part of the experience too. The app has a system for fetching books in several formats, and when a download completes you can launch the file directly from inside the app instead of hunting through folders.

The library tools are where it gets interesting for heavy readers. You can browse your collection yourself, with no need to keep a manual list. There is also a library scanning function that tells you about books you have already read, which helps if you tend to pick the same title twice without realising.

What the MOD unlocks

• Premium Unlocked – the paid part of the app is available without buying it, so you can explore the whole app rather than stopping at a locked screen. The official description does not spell out what premium contains, so take a look around the menus after installing.

Tips before you start

• Put the books and documents you actually want to read on your device first, so the app has something to work with the moment you open it.
• Download your titles ahead of time if you are heading somewhere with weak signal, since reading works offline once the files are saved.
• Run the library scanning function after you have built up a collection. It helps you spot what you have already finished before you start something again.
• Keep a mix of formats if you like. The app handles several, so you do not need to convert everything to a single type.

Installing the APK

Download the file from this page; at about 15M it should arrive quickly on most connections. When Android asks, allow installs from unknown sources for your browser or file manager. If the system reports a conflict with the original app, remove the original eReader first, then tap the downloaded file, install it and open the app.

Common questions

Do I need root?

No. The APK installs like any other app and does not need any deep changes to your phone.

Is it safe?

Files are checked before they are published here, but no modified app can come with a guarantee. Install APK files only from sources you trust, and avoid entering sensitive personal data into apps you are unsure about.

Can I read my own books with it?

Yes, that is the main purpose. It is designed to open common book and document formats, and once the files are on your device you can read them without an internet connection.
