Hi, currently a kindle touch, and also have the app on my phone and laptop. I'm getting an android tablet at christmas and have been looking at other ereader apps.
I will be reading (and storing) magazines as well as books, and when searching I found an app that looked great - the graphics looked like an old fashioned gentlemans library (book lined shelves, desk and leather armchair etc), and had seperate shelf sections for books and magazines. Unfortunately, I forgot to bookmark it, and can't find it again.
Does anyone recognise the app I am referring to? Or if not, can they reccommend another ebook reading appwith a similar look and easy referencing for books and magazines? There are so many available on google play that I don't know where to start.
Thanks
Olias

I think the bookshelf is an Android thing - several reader apps use it. You probably saw Aldiko, which is often considered the best epub reader for Android. For mobi files you need the Kindle app or Moon.
You can go to Google Play using your PC and search for 'ereaders' to see what is available. Once you have your tablet, this is where you will get your apps from.0 -
was it calibre, great for transferring one format to another,
