Not quite right for my iPhone XR

I have an iPhone XR and find it frustrating that to be able to get a larger font, the top line of the page disappears into the notch. I have to pull down the screen to read that line. I enlarged the font because the default size is around a 9. Small fonts are one of the reasons I moved to digital books as they can be so hard to read. Otherwise, so far, the app is ok although I love my other reading app used for libraries. This is for books I need to purchase for my book club that the library may not have in digital format. 4 stars because of the notch.

Barely adequate

I want to be able to read ebooks without supporting large corporations, and this app is one of the few ways to do that. Unfortunately, the app is terrible.*No option to view in 2 columns (like a physical book)*Progress and bookmarks don't sync across devices linked to the same account*Progress frequently resets, meaning I lose my place if I didn't recently bookmark*No dictionary or web search capability*No capability to search selected text within the book (you can type in a word or phrase to search within the book, but not select and search)*No capability to copy selected text*Highlighting is difficult to place the cursors; it seems like more effort was put into making the end result look like a "real" highlighter than into the functionality of highlightingI give it two stars because I will continue to use it. But if there were another independent online bookstore with as large a catalog, I'd ditch this one.

Very disappointing app

Unfortunately, I did not read the fine print when I bought a book from this seller. I am only able to read it, without paying for another app, on the website or it’s related app. Here’s something frustrating: I can enlarge the font, but the app is unresponsive to my touching the screen to scroll either up or down. No matter where I touch the screen, in the center, along the side of the screen, it doesn’t scroll. I tried to read the book on the website - for some odd reason I had to resign in to do so - and the text scrolls, but the site doesn’t provide a night version. There goes this month’s money on a new book. I will rebuy it - I assume there isn’t a refund option on eBooks given it’s limited Help and FAQ pages - next month for reading on one of the usual major corporation readers I use. Live and learn.

So any glitches can’t even use it

It has so many glitches it’s impossible to use. Every time I want to turn to the next page it keeps flipping back to the previous page. I sometimes have to flip the same page 5-7 times before it sticks. I got 660 pages to read for school, this is a total time waster. Then it doesn’t let you highlight sections. It freezes. It’s just so not worth it. I updated my software, turned off and on my iPad, the glitches remain. Wished I could give a better review, seems like a great program if it would just work.

Super convenient and easy interface

I am reading my first eBook, one I received as a PDF, and downloaded this and the Kindle app to try to read. This app was convenient to download the PDF, it saves my place, I can read how I want, and it allows me to take notes and highlight. The Kindle seemed to only allow notes and highlights on their "official" downloads, and if I backed out of the program it did not keep the file. I also prefer the way the pages link together vertically so that I can smoothly transition between pages without having to do a sudden switch to horizontal swiping after scrolling vertically the whole page. Minus a star because sometimes highlighting can be awkward, and it's too easy to accidentally erased a highlight if two passages are close together, but that's a minor annoyance. This app for the win. P.S. Would be awesome if an update allowed for highlights of multiple colors!

Not up to snuff

This reader offers tiny, medium, and very large text with big size jump between them. When I go from the two small text to one that is more comfortably sized, it leads to highly distracting gaps in the page because the app insists that the text be justified. My opinion on whether it should be justified or not it’s really the only one that counts, and in this case, removing the justification and letting it just flow normally from the left side of the page would make a far more readable document. I simply cannot see ordering any more items that I have to read with such an irritating viewer that is so missing the simple features that many many other apps have already made standard.

I Like it!

I really like the book shelf view.The only reason I am not giving a higher rating is that I have not been able to focus on reading more often until now. I will give a better review as I learn everything I can about it’s limitations. I would love to have all my ebooks, ibooks, and audiobooks on this book shelf format so I can experience it as I do my study with its multiple book shelves. So, an ebook shelf, an ibook shelf, and an audio book shelf with an interface that you could view them all and select the shelf you wanted to open a book from would be really cool.

It is a basic ereader app

It does what I supposed to do and uploads from apps or websites that allow you to download books. It is very good at having the books there when you open the app. Though, sometimes the books take awhile to open. And you can’t delete books once they have been added but I think that might be a new bug. While reading, it has some nice features you access like customizing the text, switching from light to dark modes, and changing the brightness. The biggest issue for me is the highlighting feature. It is slow, not accurate when trying to do the highlighting and erratic. And it doesn’t have a dictionary but you can save bookmarks and take notes.

A very good private library.

I ve always wanted my own library, now I ve even have a nice one with (always dusted) shelves in the library. Now I just need to find a suitable chair and per chance a wine cooler. I know that my books are maintained professionally and are available on a moments notice.20 August 2019:This app keeps getting better and better as time goes on. What I enjoy is being able to change both the background color and the text color. There re times when the color white gives me a major headache and inverting the white background doesn t really work because I white text. While the color change works for most of the books, it doesn t work for PDFs. However, doing a smart invert with the PDFs does change at least the white to a dark, dark blue background and a pale ivory text which (IMO) an immense improvement over most of the apps which only use black and white colors.

It brings reading into an easy format.

I have found online, what can be an exhausting experience trying one reader and then another, the satisfaction in finding a comprehensive display eBook reader. Often, for me, the search has ended in further frustrations finding readers apps that are almost always accompanied with certain idiosyncrasies, a mixture of certain inconsistent rules that do not fit most all our varied choices. So far, in the 4 months of using this app on my iPad 3, this app has performed without fault. I deliberate on so many different subjects offered, that having a reader that does not have these common bugs ( so far in my experience ), it is a delight to have the confidence that what I download will nest itself in such a worthy reader. How I do desire that they would allow a search for titles or better yet displaying the titles with authors in single sentence list. Even a single sentence display list would be less annoying then to have to scroll through the vast collections of items I have imbedded into the reader. If you have not tried it, do! If your a stickler for reliability, you'll be impressed. May Christ also be a Blessing of Love for you and yours, Robert Casey...Shalom
