Library

MJ PDF is more than a viewer. It remembers what you read and helps you find it again.

  • Recent, Library and Folders. Three tabs on the home screen: what you opened lately, everything MJ PDF knows about, and a file browser.
  • Reading history and progress. See page counts, percentage read and when you last opened each document.
  • Reading statuses. Filter by To Read, Reading, On Hold, Completed and Abandoned.
  • Grid and list views. Browse covers in a grid or scan titles in a list.
  • Device and SD card browsing. Open files directly from folders, including removable storage.
