The app’s functions include several tasks such as saving the essential bits of the ReadiumJS stack, adding interfaces, cleaning up library management, and so on. Furthermore, there is a new Readium browser-based app in the works called ‘Readium Web’. There are a number of alternative reading systems based on Readium technology (ReadiumJS, Readium SDK and/or Readium LCP) available. It’s all in maintenance mode as of now.Īs a result, the digital publishing industry is currently facing a great challenge and is actively searching for alternate solutions to substitute Readium.
You can still access the Readium CloudReader, though no new features are planned for the future. Google states that deprecated Chrome apps will no longer be updated after the final update in October.
Furthermore, Readium recently released the version 0.31 - its latest and final release of the Readium Chrome application. Google had indicated back in 2017 about the impending changes.Īs a result, Readium Foundation has decided to cease supporting and releasing the app. One of the major reasons is that Google’s recent changes to its security rules -such as no inline scripts - have ended up in partially crippling the application. To the shock of many loyal Readium users around the world, Google announced that it is planning to discontinue the use of Readium soon.
