Do any ebook platforms have better integrated dictionaries than Google Play? (reddthat.com)

I've gotten into reading Japanese books a lot more recently, and I prefer e-books as their built-in dictionaries are a god-send for foreign language learners.

I've only used Google Play so far. The integrated dictionary is fine, but one annoyance is that it can't detect any word that uses furigana. Are Kindle, Kobo, or any other platforms any better?

For Google Play, the integrated dictionary doesn't recognize any word that has furigana on all of the books I've read, so I don't think it's an issue with individual books. It also can't recognize conjugated verbs or adjectives, so it would be great if there are any other platforms that can.
