KNOWN ISSUES ON KIT KAT=======================In Kit Kat, due to Google changed the webview engine with Chrome which has many bugs and compatibility issues. Some of features is not working. I'm working to find work around of those issues.
1. Reflow function is broken for some CHM file. So you may need to scroll left/right to view the pages. After latest upgrade 4.4.2, seems Google partially fixed this issue. So some of the file reflow works again, but not all.
2. Set the zoom level function is not working properly, so if you changed the zoom level, when switch to different page, the zoom level will be reset. After 4.4.2 upgrade, seems Google is trying to fix this issue. so now the zoom level is persisted. But I notice a new issue, for certain file, once zoom in, you can't zoom out to original level, the work around, is to "clear history" from scratch.
PERMISSION REQUIRED====================Internet Access Permission: to open external link to internet embedded in some CHM files.
FEEDBACKS AND ISSUES=====================Please help to leave a rating if you like it.
Please make sure to send me a email if there's any issue, I'll try to find a solution asap. Just leaving a comments on Play or just send a message on crash report won't help as I have no way to communicate back so I can't know the details for trouble shooting.
FAQs====1. Can't see the menu buttons to enable all the functions.
In Android 4.0 and above, the menu button is a list of 3 vertical dots on the right-bottom side of the screen.
2 when clicking link on the content page, It has lag in response in certain devices.
As content page is an HTML page, when you click a link, the browser sometime will treat it as pan event instead of click event if you hold you finger a little bit longer on screen, in that case browser won't open the link. So the solution is make sure to click very briefly, don't touch screen for longer time.

Unable to use reflow of text in any mobile with Android versions 7,1 and above. Besides this app developers do not respond to addres the issue. We are trying to get solutions. Otherwise it was working fine with lower versions of Android 6.1 and below. I can give 5 star for that but for Android version app developers should update it.
Finally working in android 10/11. Thanks
The invert colors preference cuts off pages of a certain length. perhaps the filter being used hasn't factored in size correctly. #bugreport

The best android chm viewer ever, really thank you!
I am not able to open. chm file by using this app what should I do to open it.
Great app for reading chm files.
Copied my extensive eBooks catalog from my Windows 10 PC to a flash drive so I could read them on my new tablet but when I came across a handful of chm files; I had to do some research. Ended up installing this app with no luck. Each files just reads a save error. Guess I'll test them on my computer later. May be just the files, don't know. If it is, I will update this review to reflect it. Hopefully you had more luck than I.
