Preflight Checklist

  • I have read and I agree to follow the support disclaimer.
  • I am sure that my feature request has nothing to with third party extensions.
  • I am using the latest available Paperback version (currently 0.8).
  • I have searched the issue tracker for a feature request that matches the one I want to file, without success.

What type of Apple device is the feature request for?

iPhone

Describe the feature

Please consider adding general support for light and web novels as seen on android apps like LN reader and Quicknovel, working similar to the current reader but with the specific focus on text based media rather than visual media.

Feature Motivation

it’s a mostly inaccessible format for iso users outside of much more risky means and would add a ton of appeal to the paperback app. It would also broaden access to a quality type of media, while other apps provide access to web novels many remain kept behind extreme paywalls that are inaccessible for most. Something that works like LN reader or Quicknovel would be huge.

Anything Else?

LN reader and Quick novel for android.

NovelReader, a similar iOS app but with extensive ads and lacking access to many titles.
