Peruse with Spritz

Made with simplicity in mind to efficiently read with Spritz.

Functionality

  • Users can share e-pubs from the FS to the app.
  • Users can share text to the app
  • Users can share web pages to the app
  • It provides a text fragment in which the user can paste or type text to spritz.
  • Anything that is spritzed is saved to the phone's local database in the "recent" perusals list
  • Perusals can be removed
  • Perusals can be renamed
  • Perusals' text can NOT be edited
  • Spritz Text Partitions are temporary and changes made to them are not persisted

Note about saving the Perusals:

The title of the perusals is limited to the first three words of the text. If the Spritzing was done on a URL then the text is not saved, rather, only the url is saved. In that case, the title is set to the part after the web protocol "http://" stuff in the url. (Maybe the app should just save the text and not the URL to prevent multiple spritz web scrapes?)

Known Issues:

  • Spritz text is too small on some devices. (Update epub text equivalently)
  • Main activity: Choosing intent assumes "/" intent type is for e-pubs, should just be "application/epub+zip". On phone and simulator, sharing/sending epub from filesystem with the app created an intent with type "/". unexpected..
  • E-Pub UI is plain
  • Text from an e-pub "page" is saved to recent list when Spritzed. Subject to change.

Todo

  • Perusal Sharing

  • Figure out a way to easily access the book based on isbn number

  • PDF support

  • Wearable Spritz Views

  • Font settings

  • Instructions on how to use app

  • Share URL that points to EPUB on internet (download epub and open as usual..)
