Why social features?
Reading (and studying Japanese) can be a lonely journey. I wanted Lumi Reader to include a few minimal social features, like seeing what others are reading or sharing your recent reading sessions. Nothing intrusive, just a bit of motivation and connection with other people.
Current Roadmap:
- Better EPUB compatibility, especially for other languages (Japanese is the most supported language right now)
- Improved bookmarks experience
- Improved mobile version
