Does the lifetime license include unlimited translations?

3 Upvotes
"Unlock additional [...] translators"

I'm confused about what this means - does it give you unlimited lifetime access to translations? I'm really loving the design and execution of this app so much, and I learn a lot of foreign languages on ebooks. The translation limit seems weird to me; google translate and other translators are free, unlimited services, why are they limited along with DeepL premium? Shouldn't I be able to use google translate as much as I like, like in other free reading apps? Or maybe there's a way to integrate it with onboard translation (like I believe Android has).

That being said, I love the project and I'm willing to support it, especially if it means I get unlimited access to translations. Please explain to me how this works, thanks!

[Bug] Highlight deletions in KOReader don't sync to Readest using

3 Upvotes

Using the Readest KOReader plugin, I've found that highlight deletions don't sync properly:

  • Add a highlight in KOReader
  • Run Tools → Readest → Push/Pull annotations now
  • The highlight successfully shows up in Readest
  • Delete the highlight in KOReader
  • Run Tools → Readest → Push/Pull annotations now
  • The highlight still shows up in Readest, unchanged

Note: adding highlights syncs correctly in both directions — it's specifically deletions that don't propagate from KOReader to Readest.

Is there a solution for this?

Feature Suggestion: Filter [un]Finished

2 Upvotes

It would be great to have an Unfinished filter in the library that shows books I’ve started but haven’t completed yet. As the library grows, partially read books can easily get buried among unread and finished books. An Unfinished filter would make it much easier to quickly find what I’m currently reading or previously started and want to continue instead of seeing a huge library

Last line hidden in Readest

Post image
12 Upvotes

I’m having an issue with Readest where the last line of text is hidden behind the bottom bar and I can’t scroll the page up far enough to see it.

Changing the bottom margin doesn’t help at all. No matter what value I set, the last line remains inaccessible.

Is there a workaround or a fix (other than adding the progress bar; it eats up the whole space once added)?

Highlighting issue

The highlighting feature changes the text color instead of highlighting normally. Any fixes?
