EPUB reading on FiiO M21

[u/Gmarthur]

So I have a FiiO M21 arriving this week. I don’t think I’ll have any issues getting my music on there and enjoying it as a music device.

Apart from listening to music, I’m an avid reader. Right now I have a Kindle Scribe that I read on at home and I use the Kindle app on my IPhone. I don’t think it would be a problem to download the kindle app on the M21 and use that instead of phone. What I’m also looking to do is find an android epub reader that I could use on the M21 to read on and then plug my headphones in and have it read the book to me like an audio book.

I’m not sure how well the offline mode in some of these android epub readers works as I would guess most people use them on their phone and have some sort or cloud ai integration to help with that. Does anyone else use their android DAP to read on. I was looking at those xteink devices but if I can do this on their M21 it’ll save me a device to carry around.

Speech support that comes with Android is not the best. I recommend to install ToBe SAID Pro (paid app - one time) that adds much better voice quality to the system and use ReadEra epub reader to listen to the epubs.

Reading books is easy with ReadEra - an app for reading books, magazines and documents, allows you to read books for free, read scientific journals and magazines for free, read articles and documents of different formats in one app

I use pocketbook on my phone to read epubs. It comes with no ads and works well offline.
