BooxReader – Free EPUB & PDF Reader

What is BooxReader?

BooxReader is a free Android application that serves as a versatile document and ebook viewer. It supports a range of file types, allowing you to keep all of your reading material—whether textbooks, novels, research papers, or comics—in one place on your device.

Main features

• Broad format support: Open PDF, EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, FB2, TXT, RTF, HTML, ODT, CBZ and CBR files without needing additional plugins.
• Flexible navigation: Choose between page‑by‑page turning or smooth vertical scrolling for both books and documents.
• Reading comfort: Switch among light, dark, vintage paper and eye‑care themes; adjust font size, style, line spacing and margins to suit your preferences.
• Zoom and crop: Precise zoom controls and margin cropping help you fit large PDFs to the screen.
• Local library: All files remain on your device, so you can read offline without uploading anything to the cloud.
• Bookmarking: The app remembers the last page you read, making it easy to resume where you left off.

How it works

After installing BooxReader, you can browse your device’s storage directly from the app and select any supported file. The viewer loads the document and presents a toolbar where you can change display settings, zoom level, and navigation mode. Settings are saved per file, so each book or PDF can have its own preferred layout.

Practical uses

• Students: Load lecture PDFs, e‑textbooks, or research articles and annotate them with built‑in zoom and margin tools.
• Casual readers: Keep your personal ebook collection on the phone and enjoy night‑mode reading on the go.
• Comic fans: Open CBZ or CBR comic archives and flip pages smoothly, with the option to organize series in folders.

Installation information

The app is available through the standard Android package manager. Search for the package name com.onyx.galaxy.global.booxreader or the app title, then tap Install. No additional permissions beyond file access are required.

Things to know before installing

• The app does not provide any online store or download service; you must supply your own files.
• All reading data stays local; there is no cloud sync.
