On a Windows computer, you may try CST4 software published by VRI, check:
It was also possible to install it on Ubuntu using Wine with some custom settings. However, there were some limitations. If it is really necessary, you may consider to use a virtual machine on Ubuntu instead.

While opening a page in Tipitaka pali app, one can quickly switch to its Myanmar translation or aṭṭhakathā/tikā or nissaya page conveniently (where available).
Although the nissaya apps are currently using scanned PDF files, one can view its content with navigation menu easily.
All are in Myanmar script.
1.2. In many pāḷi scripts (developed by a Sri-Lankan developer - Janaka)
If you cannot read pāḷi Myanmar script, then this app is a very good choice.
1. Tipitaka app http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.tipitaka.main
It also has an online web version: https://tipitaka.app
It supports many pāḷi scripts, full text search, sutta name search, bookmark, pāḷi script converter utility, and many pāḷi dictionaries. The app also includes many añña text: leḍī sayāḍo gantha-saṅgaho, ... (as in the VRI CST4 software).

5. Ṭīkā nissaya

2.2. In many Myanmar and other pāḷi scripts (developed by a Myanmar developer)
Note: Although these iOS/iPadOS apps are currently not published through the Apple store and you need to verify its developer profile manually in order to use them, you don't need to do anything special to your device (jailbreak?...) in order to install these apps.
Open this link: https://dhammapedia.com/ios/allapps.html with Safari browser and simply click on an app icon to install it. Then go to your Apple device Setting and verify its developer profile.
CSP11 and CSPXL are tipitaka pāḷi apps and you can change pāḷi script. The CSPXL has a larger size since it also includes many scanned book files (in Myanmar script). I installed both CSP11 and CSPXL on my device.
Note: These apps will be expired after every 12 months. So every year one needs to download its new profile app and renews it again. The profile app (the first app with an Apple icon) is also available from the above link.
For the two tipitaka apps CSP11 and CSPXL, the default display script is in Myanmar pāḷi script. One can change this in the app Setting. And you need to do this every time you launch the app since it doesn't remember your choice.
There are also nissaya apps and others, except 1 Sri Lanka pāḷi dictionary app, the others are mostly in Myanmar script.
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with any of these apps. They are all free apps and all links are pointed directly to app stores or download sources. It is your duty to check whether the apps are safe or workable for you at the time you are reading this.
Remember things one the Internet are always changing.
