I’ve been using https://readest.com and very much enjoying it. I just wish there were a “lifetime purchase” option.

Looks nice. Shame it doesn't have OPDS support, but it's nice to see that it's a planned feature in their GitHub README!

What are you paying for? I see no mention of paid features anywhere (play store, GitHub readme, website, in-app settings). If the app isn't entirely free, this send pretty misleading...

    There's a cloud-based sync service (500mb of books; 10k translation chars). I'm currently storing 24 books (as I haven't moved them all across from the Kindle app yet) and I'm using 12% of this storage.

    I suppose if you want to implement your own cloud-based (Dropbox? Google Drive?) storage service and circumvent the author's monetisation model, you could.
