FAQs

Who made this?
It’s made by alexwlchan. If you find it useful, maybe buy me a coffee?
Can you see what fics I’m reading?
No! This is completely private – everything stays on your phone/computer. I don’t see any of the EPUBs you’re adding covers to.
How do you pick the colours?
The colours are chosen randomly, but they’ll be the same for all the fics in the same fandom. For example, all your Star Wars stories will be red, while Star Trek is green. This is to help you browse your stories by AO3 fandom.
How does it work?
I’ve written a blog post that explains how it works. You can also “View source” on this web page and see all the code, or look at the GitHub repository.
I love this tool! How can I make sure it doesn’t go away?
You can buy me a coffee which will make me feel happy and keep running my websites, or you can download this web page and get a copy that will run on your computer.
I like this tool, but I’d love it even more if it behaved differently! How can I do that?
You can ask me nicely (file a GitHub issue or send me an email), or you can do it yourself! This tool is only a single web page, so you can download it and then make your own changes to the HTML and JavaScript until it works the way you want.
I have a fic that doesn’t work. Can you help?
Send me a copy of the file, or a link to the original fic, and the browser you were using when something broke.
Something is broken. Can you fix it?
File an issue in the GitHub repository, or send me an email. It’s useful if you tell me what fic you were looking at, what didn’t work, and what browser you were using.
