How to Read Chireads Stories on a Boox E-Reader
To read a Chireads story on a Boox e-reader, download the whole story as an EPUB or PDF with WP Downloader and transfer the file to your device. Boox readers run Android, so you can open the file in the built-in reader or another Android reading app.
Download a Chireads story
WP Downloader is a free web tool and requires no installation. It supports whole stories from Chireads, a French-language fiction site.
Open the story on chireads.com and copy its URL. A Chireads story link usually looks like this:
https://chireads.com/category/translatedtales/story-nameCopy the story page URL, since WP Downloader does not download individual Chireads chapters or lists.
Open the Chireads downloader and follow these steps:
- Paste the Chireads story link into the box.
- Wait for WP Downloader to detect the site and retrieve the story.
- Choose EPUB or PDF.
- Choose whether to include the story’s images.
- Download the file to your phone or computer.
EPUB is free for everyone. PDF requires a free Discord sign-in.
You do not need a Chireads account. WP Downloader retrieves the publicly available story at the link you provide.
For more detail, see the guide to downloading Chireads stories.
Choose EPUB or PDF
Boox e-readers can open EPUB and PDF files in their built-in reader. Because they run Android, they can also use other Android reading apps.
EPUB is a practical choice for reading a Chireads story as an ebook. PDF is available if you prefer it, though WP Downloader requires a free Discord sign-in for PDF downloads.
Both formats keep the story in French. WP Downloader packages the available story without translating it.
WP Downloader does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files. A Boox can open the EPUB and PDF formats that the tool provides.
Transfer the file to your Boox
You can transfer the downloaded EPUB or PDF over USB or open it from Google Drive.
Copy the file over USB
If the file is on your computer:
- Connect your Boox to the computer with a USB cable.
- Open the Boox storage on the computer.
- Copy the EPUB or PDF file to the device.
- Disconnect the Boox after the transfer finishes.
- Find the file and open it in the built-in reader or another installed reading app.
Storing downloaded stories in one folder can make them easier to find later.
Open the file from Google Drive
Upload the downloaded file to Google Drive from your phone or computer. On your Boox, open Google Drive, find the EPUB or PDF, and open it with a compatible reading app.
This method works well when the story is already on your phone and you do not want to connect the Boox to a computer.
Read the story on your Boox
Once you open the file, you can read the Chireads story in the Boox built-in reader or another Android reading app installed on the device.
If you chose to include images during the download, the file will contain the story’s available images. Leave that option off if you do not want them included.
WP Downloader does not add new chapters to an EPUB already on your Boox. When the original Chireads story gets new chapters, download the whole story again and transfer the new file to the device.
