uBooks is an alternative reading app

uBooks XL

by United Softhouse
FREE in the App Store

uBooks xl's primary selling point is its ability to autoscroll your book so you can read with one hand. Users can customize the look of the book, but not the somewhat lacking user interface. For some, autoscroll makes this a must-buy, but it also has a propensity to crash when navigating through menus.
