Fic for your ipod/ipad as an ereader via fanfiction.net

I haven't seen this posted yet. I just found it myself. I use my ipad as an ereader (save fics as pdfs via free print2pdf programs and then reading them via stanza, ibooks, goodreader, and other apps). While looking for fanfic apps, I found one called Pocket Fiction. It lets you download all your faves from fanfiction.net and alerts you to when your alerted stories get updated. Downfall is you cannot sync multiple accounts and fanfiction.net is the only site available right now vs various fic archive sites. I still think it's worth checking out.

Edit: Oh and don't be afraid to email the creator asking for things and giving feedback. I sent out two messages after I got the app and got speedy replies.

For reading on the ipad/ipod touch/iphone, try downloading fics on flagfic.net, choose epub format, email it to yourself, then open the fic in ibooks or stanza. You can adjust the font size and it's so much easier to read the fics!
