      Does Jnovel club have any plans to approve accessibility for the visually impaired?

      I like the stuff jnovel club publishes and would prefer to buy from them directly. However, the website's chapters don't seem to work well with a screen reader like google assistant and the jnovel club app doesn't have a 'read aloud' option.

      Maybe I am missing the obvious solution but if there isn't one I hope the devs will consider creating one.

        @melchi not helpful for the subscription bonuses, but when you purchase full volumes you can download them and open them in the reader app of your choice since they are DRM free. While I'm not sure of the names, I do know there are various other apps available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store which do have those read aloud functions.

          Building on this is that what you get on the website isn't the finished version.
          You want to download the published eBook once you've purchased it.

            The Google books app is decent for text to speech so if you purchase the epubs here you can put them in app

            idk what to put here but please j-novel staff update the BL tag to yaoi or boy's love so I can actually use the search feature

              Crimson Wise's PWA Web Client available from https://jnc-reader.wscr.dev/ allows for chapter read aloud.

              Other than for pre-pubs it is still best to get the epub as that has been through more proof reading / editing.

              Stay shiny, y'all.
