FBReader 2.7.10 for Android is on its way. Already available from https://fbreader.org/FBReaderJ, rolled out for 10% of users on the Google Play.

This is a minor update, but includes significant internal changes. We use new page cache logic, and render text selection in a separate layer. These changes are backported from our upcoming iOS release and should improve page rendering speed on some devices and for some books. Text selection should work more smooth, especially on low-end devices.
