What you can try

  • Import your DRM-free EPUBs and documents, or local manga archives.
  • Adjust reader type and themes; save highlights, notes, and bookmarks.
  • Track reading activity and daily goals; add Android reading widgets.
  • Download optional voice packs for offline narration or an on-device semantic search model.
  • Visit Between chapters for saved passages, a reading journal, and three small games.
  • Use compatible third-party manga source extensions on Android. Folio hosts no books, manga, or extensions.

Reading your imported library does not require an account. Online sources, downloads, and optional sync need a connection. Cloud sync requires your own Firebase project. Windows has a separate portable preview release; the assets on this page are for Android.

Verification and limits

All three APKs were checked for package ID com.folio.reader, version 1.2.131 (code 185), archive integrity, matching application code, expected ARM architectures, and valid release signatures. The arm64 build has a recorded installation and startup check on one physical Android device; this is not broad device testing. The signing key matches the preceding local release.

Use SHA256SUMS.txt to verify the downloaded file. This preview is in early development; keep a library backup before updating. x86 emulator builds and DRM removal are not provided.

If you try Folio, feedback on EPUB import, reading comfort, and accessibility would help shape the next release.

Known test-suite limitation

The full shared JVM suite completed with 1,204 passed, 31 failed, and 16 skipped tests on a clean Linux runner. Several failures are in corpus-dependent tests that need local book fixtures; other assertion and lifecycle failures still require investigation. This preview is not backed by a fully passing shared test suite. The Android build passed, and the Windows package passed its fresh build and isolated startup check.
