FBReader,
Initially open-source software written (in C++) by Nikolay Pultsin in 2005, the app supported Sharp Zaurus - a PDA - and subsequently a range of other devices. The tool became closed-source in 2015 and was split into free and premium versions on Android for additional features at a cost.
FBReader Supported devices:
The wide range of supported devices include; Android (including Kindle Fire HD (X), Nook e-ink, YotaPhone); Windows Phone; BlackBerry 10; iPhone & iPad; Jolla/Saifish; Linux; Mac OS X; Windows; and some other platforms such as a Beta version for Symbian, Beta for Meego Harmattan (Nokia N950, N9), SmartQ 5/7 MID, Maemo (Nokia 770/N800/N810) Internet Tablet, Sharp Zaurus, Siemens Simpad, Archos PMA430, Motorola A1200 smartphone & PepperPad; ➕ a few old device and third-party party packages here.
