Why we chose web over apps 🌐

Hey everyone! Alex here 👋

Today I want to talk about why we chose web over native apps for Litera Reader.

The main reason: we're in active development.

Right now, Litera Reader is a living product. New features drop frequently, sometimes every couple of weeks. We're constantly improving the reader, adding functionality, and polishing details.

And in this kind of dynamic environment, the web version gives us a superpower:

👉 You always get the latest build instantly — no waiting for approval from the App Store or Google Play
👉 No need to download, update, or reinstall anything
👉 No sync headaches. Just open your browser and read

Everything works here and now.

So what's next?

We totally get that many people prefer native apps for convenience. That's why, down the line, we plan to package the web version into native apps for iOS, Android, and desktop. For now, though, web is our main focus.

Read anywhere. Instantly. No extra fuss. Litera Reader 🤝
