Open a downloaded book in one click with EPUB Reader Online. Real search inside your epub file. Scroll or page mode, no ads ever. 📖 EPUB Reader Online — your downloaded book opens right in the browser Chrome saves .epub files but cannot open them, so a new book ends up as a dead icon in the download bar. EPUB Reader Online turns that file into a real reading tab in about two seconds, on Windows, Mac and Chromebook, with nothing else to install. 🚀 How it works 1. Add epub reader online to Chrome and download a book as usual. 2. The reading tab opens by itself the moment the download finishes. 3. No download? Drag the file into the tab, or pick it with one button. 4. Read, search, close the tab — you return to the same page later. ✨ What you get 🔹 A clean reading tab: table of contents on the left, text on the right. 🔹 Real search across the whole book, not just the chapter on screen. 🔹 Smooth vertical scroll and a page-by-page mode — both of them work. 🔹 Book fonts to choose from, including a dyslexia-friendly one. 🔹 Light, sepia, dark and pure-black themes; font size and column width. 🔹 Your place is saved by itself, per book, down to the paragraph. 🔹 A list of recent books on the start screen, one click to reopen. 🔹 Click any picture to see it full screen; turn pages from the keyboard. 🔹 No ads, ever. No account, no sign-up, no upsell inside a chapter. 🔎 Search that actually finds things Long books are where readers get stuck. Epub reader online scans every chapter of the file and shows matches as they appear, so a quote from chapter 40 is one click away. Nothing is uploaded to do it — the search runs on your own machine, on the copy you already have. 📚 Built for books that are actually big A 1200-chapter reference and a 110 MB illustrated volume both open here without freezing the tab, because chapters are rendered lazily instead of all at once. That is the point where lighter tools give up and quietly show you half a book, and it is the reason this epub file reader was tested on the worst files we could find. 🎓 Who reads here • Students with a course pack to get through before Monday morning. • Commuters who want the next chapter, not another app on the phone. • Anyone handed a manual, a standard or a long report as an ebook. • People who refuse to see one more banner in the middle of a chapter. 🌙 Comfortable for long sessions 1️⃣ Pick the type size you read at, not the one the file suggests. 2️⃣ Narrow the column so your eyes stop travelling across the screen. 3️⃣ Switch to dark, sepia or pure black at night; the setting sticks. 🌐 The same reader online EPUB Reader Online also lives on our own website, so a book opens on a machine where the extension is not installed, with the same layout and the same settings. One product, two doors: the extension for your own Chrome, the epub web reader for everything else. 🔒 Your books never leave your device Your books never leave your device. Files are read locally, reading positions live in your own browser storage, and the content of a book is never sent anywhere. No ads, no accounts, no tracking beyond anonymous usage stats. 🧩 Why each permission is asked for ➤ downloads — to notice that an .epub download finished and open it. ➤ storage — to keep reading positions, settings and an anonymous id. ➤ file access — to read the book file you opened, nothing else on disk. ➤ link handling — to turn a click on a book file into a reading tab. ➤ website access — optional, off by default, only for the switch below. ⚙️ One optional switch There is a single optional feature: "Open EPUB links from websites". It stays off until you turn it on, Chrome asks you for the permission at that moment, and from then on a book linked on a web page opens in the reader instead of downloading. Leave it off and epub reader online still does everything above. ❓ Frequently asked questions ❓ How to open epub file on a Chromebook or a laptop? 💡 Download the book — epub reader online opens it in a tab by itself. ❓ How to read epub files without installing a program? 💡 This epub file reader is a Chrome extension and a web page; there is no installer. ❓ Does it work offline? 💡 Yes.
