1. Environment
- Device: [TeraCube TeraCube_One TR1907Q]
- OS: [Android 10]
- APP: [0.9.8]
2. Describe the feature request
A UI feature I enjoy a lot from Handy Reader and Librera is the concept of a horizontal progress bar that shows you how far you are in the article.
Librera will put marks for chapters, which obviously do not apply in web articles, but perhaps headings could be used to mark article structure.
Below screenshot from Handy Reader showing darker green progress bar above article content.
Screenshot below from Librera showing horizontal progress bar with tick marks by chapter.
