BlueReader

BROWSER EPUB READER

Read EPUB Files in Your Browser

No dedicated reader app required. Add an EPUB to BlueReader and read from a current browser on desktop or mobile.

Can a browser open an EPUB file?

Most browsers do not display EPUB files on their own. BlueReader uploads and processes the file, then displays its chapters in a browser reader linked to your account.

01

HOW IT WORKS

Upload, process, and open from your bookshelf

Sign in, choose a DRM-free EPUB, and upload it to BlueReader. Server-side processing prepares the book for reading. When it is ready, select its cover from your bookshelf.

The upload is required because BlueReader stores the book in your account. You can then open it from another supported device.

02

BROWSER SUPPORT

Read in Chrome, Safari, or Firefox

BlueReader supports current Chrome, Firefox, and Safari releases on desktop, plus Chrome for Android and Safari on iOS. Update your browser before reading if it is out of date.

03

BROWSER VS DESKTOP

Use one bookshelf across operating systems

A desktop reader can be ideal for local library management. A browser reader is useful when you want a consistent bookshelf and reading position without maintaining a different app on every operating system.
