Hey, Kobo, just offer the APK download direct from your support site, eh? Kobo – This link looks like it’s for an old version of the Kobo Android app I couldn’t find any newer. It offers plenty of features and supports a lot of formats: epub (non-DRM), fb2, doc, txt, rtf, html, chm, tcr, pdb, prc, mobi (non-DRM), and pml. This app is easy to load ebooks into just open settings and change the folder directory to wherever your ePub ebooks are located.Ĭool Reader – This is a very popluar ePub Android app. I tried it briefly and it seems to work okay, but FBReader is freezing up sometimes on the Kindle Fire. They have a text-to-speech plugin for Android too. The only negative is the covers don’t show up in the library.įBReader – This is a good ebook app for DRM-free ePubs as well as FB2. You just have to place them in the Nook’s My Documents folder. You can sideload other ePub ebooks into the Nook app too. Nook – With this app you can essentially turn the Kindle Fire into a Nook Tablet. You can even use it to read library ebooks. So far I’ve had good luck with these versions of Aldiko and Nook.Īldiko – This is the ePub app I use the most because it offers ample formatting options and is one of the few Android apps that supports Adobe DRM ebooks. Below are links to download the apps, but I haven’t tried each and every app to see how well they work so some experimenting may be in order. The worst part about getting apps this way is that they aren’t always up-to-date, so you may have to try a different version of the same app from somewhere else if you are experiencing any problems.

But first, to enable the installation of apps from outside the Amazon Appstore, you have to open the Kindle Fire’s settings menu, select Device, then turn on “allow installation of applications from unknown sources”.
