BookReader
BookReader is an e-book reader and library management application for macOS. Based on the bundle ID, it appears to be distributed through Paddle, a digital commerce platform. The app lets users organise, browse and read digital books in various formats, likely supporting common e-book file types. It is intended for students, casual readers and anyone maintaining a personal digital book collection on their Mac.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find substantial public information about BookReader — no recent release notes, vendor website, or confirmation of native Apple Silicon support in available search results. Given that you are currently using this app and we are now 28 months away from September 2028 when Apple removes Rosetta 2, it is important to establish the current status. Contact the developer through Paddle or via any support contact listed in the app's About or Help menu to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned or already available. If the developer confirms they are actively maintaining the app, ask for a timeline for native support. If they do not respond or the project appears inactive, begin researching alternative e-book readers with confirmed native Apple Silicon builds — options like Apple Books (built into macOS), Calibre, and Nook include native Apple Silicon support and can import most common e-book formats. Taking action now gives you time to migrate your library before Rosetta 2 is removed.
