Freda 5.3.4

Freda is a program designed for Windows that enables users to read electronic books (ebooks) for free. The platform grants access to a vast selection of over 50,000 classic books in the public domain from libraries such as Feedbooks, Project Gutenberg, and other online catalogs. Additionally, users can peruse their own DRM-free ebooks in various supported formats including EPUB, MOBI, FB2, HTML, and TXT.

One of Freda's notable features is its customizable controls that allow users to adjust fonts, colors, annotations, bookmarks, and access dictionary definitions and translations. A recent addition to its features includes text-to-speech functionality. Notably, Freda comprehends EPUB formatting elements such as bold/italic text, margins, alignment, and can display images and diagrams within ebooks.

The application seamlessly integrates with online catalogs like Feedbooks, Smashwords, and the Gutenberg Project to provide an extensive reading collection. Alternatively, users with existing book libraries can sync them using OneDrive, Dropbox, or Calibre to access their collection on their phone. Furthermore, Freda supports downloading books from websites and email attachments.

Notably, users have the convenience of downloading books onto their phones for offline reading purposes. Freda is a free application with advertising displayed at the bottom of its main page. Should users prefer an ad-free experience, an in-app purchase option is available to remove advertisements.
