FrogReader Alpha 2

Alpha 2 is a major upgrade to FrogReader’s reading engine, navigation, and format fidelity.

Highlights

  • Smart “Back to page” navigation — return to the exact previous position after links, search, contents, bookmarks, quotes, progress scrubbing, and long continuous scrolling. Works in paged and continuous modes.
  • Right-to-left reading preview — RTL-aware Arabic and Hebrew text, mixed-direction content, page progression, tap zones, selection, tables, links, and logical alignment.
  • Major format-engine upgrade — substantially improved parity across FB2, EPUB, MOBI6, and KF8/AZW3.
  • Correct H1–H6 headings — all six heading levels now have distinct sizes and preserve rich inline formatting.
  • Rich footnotes — notes can contain headings, lists, poems, tables, images, styles, and nested links without the previous length limit.
  • Improved publisher styling — better CSS, embedded fonts, colors, backgrounds, spacing, drop caps, tables, inline images, SVG, and legacy HTML formatting.
  • MathML and EPUB 2 DTBook — readable native mathematical notation and improved compatibility with older accessible EPUB publications.
  • Stronger reliability — extensive limits and validation for archives, fonts, CSS, SVG, MOBI/KF8 structures, and damaged book resources.

Known limitations

Fixed-layout EPUB/KF8, KFX, vertical writing, audio, video, and KF8 panel magnification are not enabled yet. RTL shaping, animated GIFs, and embedded fonts on older devices should still receive physical-device verification.

Requires Android 8.0 or newer.
