How to Read Lois & Clark Fanfic Stories on Android
To read a Lois & Clark Fanfic Archive story on an Android phone or tablet, download it with WP Downloader and open the EPUB or PDF in a reading app. EPUB is free for everyone and does not require a sign-in.
Download the story with WP Downloader
WP Downloader is a free web tool, so you do not need to install a downloader app. You also do not need an account for the Lois & Clark Fanfic Archive.
- Find the story you want to read on lcfanfic.com.
- Copy its full web address from your browser. The address should look like this:
http://lcfanfic.com/stories/2017/html/a-story-name - Open the Lois & Clark Fanfic Downloader.
- Paste the story link into the box.
- Choose EPUB or PDF. You can also choose whether to include the story’s images.
- Download the finished file to your Android device.
EPUB is free for everyone. PDF requires a free Discord sign-in.
WP Downloader downloads the entire story from this archive. It cannot download individual chapters or story lists. If the story gets new chapters, paste its link into WP Downloader again and download a new file. The tool cannot update an EPUB you already have.
Support for the Lois & Clark Fanfic Archive was ported from FanFicFare, the open-source fanfiction downloader licensed under Apache-2.0.
Open the EPUB on Android
You will need a reading app that opens EPUB files. Google Play Books and Moon+ Reader are two options for Android.
Read with Google Play Books
Google Play Books accepts DRM-free EPUB and PDF files. After uploading a file, you can read it on Android, iPhone, iPad, or the web.
On your Android device:
- Find the downloaded EPUB in your device’s files.
- Upload it with the Google Play Books app.
- Wait for the upload to finish.
- Open Google Play Books and select the story from your uploaded books.
You can also upload the file through the Play Books website from your computer or Google Drive. The uploaded story will then be available in Play Books on your Android device. Very large files may reach Google’s upload size limit.
Read with Moon+ Reader
Moon+ Reader opens EPUB files directly on Android.
- Download the story as an EPUB.
- Find it in your Android file manager.
- Open the file with Moon+ Reader.
- Read the story on your phone or tablet.
Moon+ Reader also has a built-in text-to-speech mode if you want to listen to the story.
Open the PDF on Android
If you downloaded a PDF, find it on your device and open it with an app that supports PDF files. You can also upload it to Google Play Books and keep it with your other uploaded books.
Choose the file type that works with your preferred reading app. EPUB is free for everyone, while PDF requires a free Discord sign-in on WP Downloader.
WP Downloader does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files.
Listen to the story on Android
Android includes Select to Speak. To turn it on, open Settings, then Accessibility. Once it is enabled, tap items on the screen to hear them read aloud.
You can also listen to EPUB files with:
- Moon+ Reader, using its built-in text-to-speech mode
- @Voice Aloud Reader, which reads EPUB files aloud
These options use the text-to-speech voices installed on your device, so the narration will sound different depending on which voices you have.
Keep the story for later
Save the EPUB or PDF somewhere easy to find, such as your device’s files or your uploaded books in Google Play Books. You can then open it again in your reading app.
