New FBReader Premium (for Android) distribution strategy coming soon.

Currently, the only legal way to get the Premium is to buy and download it from the Google Play. This makes Premium unavailable for devices with no Google Play.

The new scheme makes the app available from three sources.
a) Google Play (for a fee)
b) Huawei App Gallery (for a fee)
c) https://fbreader.org site (the package would be downloadable for free)

If your Android includes Google Services, and does not include App Gallery, you have to pay via Google Play to run Premium. Vice versa, if the device has App Gallery only, you have to pay via the Huawei store. If both are installed, you can select. Finally, if your device misses both, you can run the Premium for free.

The bad news is that if you have paid via Google Play, and switched to a pure Huawei device, you have to pay again.

We reserve the right to add more stores to this scheme in the future.

FBReader for Android 3.0.26 and 3.1 beta 23 uploaded to the Google Play. The release fixes keeping of current book between runs. Both free and Premium versions are updated.

Starting from this update, the betas are available only for devices with Android 4.2 and higher (earlier version were available for 4.1 as well).

FBReader Premium for Android 3.0.27 and 3.1 beta 24 are in the store. The release improves the stability of reading aloud.

3.1 beta 25 is the first release of FBReader Premium that is available for download from our site. It is also uploaded to the Google Play store as usual.

If both Google Play Services and Huawei AppGallery are not installed on your device

OR

if your device is an Onyx e-ink reader,

you can run the beta for free. On other devices, you are prompted to buy the license. Currently only available on Google Play.

The changes include Polish LitRes ebook store (https://litres.pl) integration, and experimental Onyx devices support.

Sale on both Android and iOS. 30-50%, depending on platform and country. The discount on Google Play ends on 2nd December. The App Store sale continues till 6th.
