android e-reader app design

24 Jan 2022

Reading time ~1 minute

In 2021, I designed an Android application for reading books, with material design standards in mind.

Instructions

I was asked to design a website or application. It’s purpose was up to me, and it did not need to actually be created. I decided to design an e-reader application for Android with OPDS (Open Publication Distribution System) functionality.

Process

First, I looked for similar applications on the Play Store. My favorites were Google’s own Play Books, Lithium and AlReader. For the design, I took inspiration from the material design documentation, Solid Explorer and BlackPlayer EX. The material design UI kit was a great help.

Result

After about two weeks of research and design, this was the result.

Screenshots of final design

My grade was a 9.4 out of 10.
