I- fucking.. i never realized i could download and organize fics
I feel stupid now
Never used any app cause ao3's website is amazing and i love it but I CAN DOWNLOAD AND ORGANIZE FICS?? WHAAAT
this is so stupid cause i already have a few downloaded fics i just haven't thought about doing it for more
noo don't feel stupid! but i hope you find that an app boosts your quality of life the app i use on android is called ReadEra. i haven't tested or compared other apps, but i like this one because the UI is so unobtrusive, customizable, and intuitive. tap right/left or top/bottom for page flip, tap middle to hide/show UI, swipe left side to decrease/increase brightness, tap top right to make a bookmark or edit one, top left to swap between two chosen visual themes (i use dark vs darker, but there is light theme and 'paper' offwhite too), if i browse my collection or author list it will keep me in the author and collection i'm 'in' until i back out myself, etc etc i really love how easy this app is to use. the only ad i get is the occasional prompt to go premium but it doesn't impede my reading experience but it could be true that any old app will do all this- find what works for you! enjoy!
#also upon reflection my own personal circumstances might be why i formed the habit of reading everything offline#as recently as 2018 i had a phone plan where i only had 30mb data per month#all of which i saved for emergency map directions only#so i downloaded fic at home and read them offline while commuting to work#i have enough data now that i don't think about conserving every mb#but i still download because i enjoy the organization and security of use. if deleted or Ao3 is offline; i still have everything#anon
