What makes Bookerei different?

Bookerei was built around a simple idea: ebook readers should be fast, private, and focused on the reading experience. Here's what that means in practice:

Bookerei reader — comfortable typography with themes and dark mode

Reading Experience

  • EPUB & PDF support
    Read the formats that matter with smooth scrolling and customizable typography.
  • Themes, light and dark
    Enhanced font size options for comfortable reading in any environment.
  • Fast Library Search
    Instant results across titles, authors, series, tags, and descriptions.

Continue reading from another computer

Keep the Bookerei library in a local folder synchronized by OneDrive, Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, or another desktop sync service. Open that same local folder in Bookerei on each computer. Your sync provider copies the files; Bookerei does not upload or host them.
