How to Read Ad Astra Stories on Android

To read an Ad Astra story on an Android phone or tablet, download it as an EPUB with WP Downloader and open the file in an EPUB reader such as Google Play Books or Moon+ Reader. WP Downloader is a free web tool, so you do not need to install it.

Download an Ad Astra story

Find the story on adastrafanfic.com and copy its URL. Ad Astra story links look like this:

https://www.adastrafanfic.com/works/123456

Open the Ad Astra downloader in your Android browser:

1. Paste the story URL into the box.
2. Wait for WP Downloader to detect the site and load the story.
3. Choose EPUB.
4. Choose whether to include the story’s images.
5. Download the finished file to your device.

EPUB downloads are free for everyone. WP Downloader can also create a PDF, which requires a free Discord sign-in.

For Ad Astra, WP Downloader downloads the whole story. It cannot download a single chapter or a story list. You can sign in with your Ad Astra account to access members-only stories that the account is allowed to read. WP Downloader does not bypass locked content, paywalls, or age restrictions.

Read the EPUB in Google Play Books

Google Play Books accepts your own DRM-free EPUB and PDF files. You can read them on Android, iPhone, iPad, or the web.

Upload the EPUB through the Google Play Books Android app, then open the uploaded book and start reading. You can also use the Play Books website to upload it from a computer or Google Drive. Sign in to the Android app with the same Google account to find the book there.

A story with many images may produce a large file. If the EPUB reaches Google’s upload size limit, download the story again without including its images.

Read with Moon+ Reader

Moon+ Reader opens EPUB files on Android. Open or import the downloaded EPUB, then select it from your library.

The app also has a built-in text-to-speech mode for reading the story aloud. It uses the voices installed on your Android device.

Listen with Android accessibility tools

Android’s Select to Speak feature can read items displayed on your screen.

To use it:

1. Open your device’s Settings.
2. Go to Accessibility.
3. Turn on Select to Speak.
4. Open the downloaded story in your reading app.
5. Use Select to Speak to hear the visible text.

@Voice Aloud Reader can also open an EPUB and read it aloud on Android. It and Moon+ Reader use your device’s text-to-speech voices, so the installed voices determine how natural the narration sounds.

Download new chapters later

WP Downloader cannot add new chapters to an EPUB you already have. After an Ad Astra story is updated, paste its link into WP Downloader again and download a new copy.

The new EPUB will contain the story as it is available when you download it. Open or upload that file in your preferred Android reading app.

If you switch devices later, see the guides to send Ad Astra stories to Kindle or read Ad Astra stories on Kobo.
