Glance-Android

Glance is a RSVP reader for Android 4.0.4+ (API 15). Glance also includes a curated collection of feeds for your reading pleasure thanks to work by Rich Jones. The Glance reading collection is also available at glance.wtf, because silly TLDs are great.

You can share URLs to Glance from your favorite web browser, or open .epubs on your device's external storage directly.

Available on Google Play under the name Glance

Lend a hand

Some quick, incomplete thoughts on what's next.

Enhancements

Find some nice monospace fonts
More sophisticated pivot choosing
Better handle "Chapters" with epublib, or some other epub library
- This seems unreasonably hard.

Features

Read text from clipboard

Building
