It is not discontinued: there is a sign of life as 2018 A.D. There is a new release, but only APK version.
Best app for Android to read .txt files!
I agree, this software is not perfect, but it's one of the best readers out there for EPUB/MOBI filetypes. It's a bit slow in opening files, resizing windows, etc. but once it does that, browsing through pages is a breeze. Add to that the customizability of the look for the fonts that works so beautifully.
Suggestion: The table of contents doesn't work/appear. The makers need to have their own website instead of just relying on sourceforge.
maybe you used a cr from new ui interface - sometimes it retarding in the new ui, you can try to run a cr3 or old coolreader2 desctop version - they works fine
the best program for readin on my laptop, not perfect but the best...
Seems to be the one and only program suited for reading fb2 books in the proper way.
