User Reviews for Elsevier eBooks on VitalSource
Who thought of this this?
I absolutely hate 90% of the user feature of this. Why are we reading a scroll? Why can’t we turn the page? Scrolls went out for a reason! The reader never feels like they get to the end of the page. Some of our chapters are 60 pages long. It shouldn’t feel like a page of reading codes and never finding the problem. Also can we write on the page for the price we pay for our “books”? The in text notes are nice. Where’s the interactive feature? Can we please turn the page? Why all my books not in te same place?
Inkling to Elsevier… very disappointed
I’m extremely disappointed in this app! Used to use inkling on my phone and online…they converted to Elsevier and I’ve been miserable since! And to there’s nobody to complain to. I’ve emailed and emailed and no responses… leaving me in the darkness. I have 6 books that I have on my account from inkling and now cannot access them on my phone. Affecting my learning and my clinical experience… so disappointing… please help!
Nice app
I really like this app and the functionality, as long as I never lose access to it.Also, the only reason it’s not 5 star is because every time I tap the screen the menu comes up then goes away. I don’t like that, I’d prefer an option to show the screen or make it go away unless needed.
Could be so great
Text to speech is terrible 1) the reading speed is either super slow or slightly too fast 2)you can only start having it reading from the beginning of a chapter 3) her pronunciation is bad even on normal words sometimes I don’t even know what she was reading. For the search function I’d like to only search a selected chapter. They should have ay evolve app where you can seamlessly access your book resources and don’t even get me started on trying to get access to the resource to the books you paid $800 for.
Nursing student
I love this app for my nursing text book. It’s easy to copy and paste important information into my GoodNotes app with this app. No to mention I much prefer carrying around my light iPad over a 6 pound nursing book anytime. Love it!
The worst
Can’t use Apple Pencil for notes, switching between chapters and pages is a pain. Worst set up ever and makes studying so much harder than it needs to be. Can’t download pdf even though you’ve paid for the book, so I can’t download to write notes on it since the app won’t let you. Can only access they the app and with WiFi. Didn’t make clear any of this before I purchased. Also didn’t put in description that it’s only accessible for 180 days. What a rip off, but what else can you except from elsevier!
Could be better
While mostly easy to understand and use with helpful tools, the tools could just be better. The fact that they exist is good but they only work through touching with the finger- I prefer to use my apple pencil since it gives me a better visual when highlighting but the feature doesn’t work with it. The scrolling options are not that great to me too, seamless scrolling would be nice so that I can view any part of the page in the center of my screen for ideal viewing.
Revamp Required
For the price we’re paying for the books and the access codes, I expected the software to be smooth and clean. There should be a way to click on tables and photos in order to expand them. Also the text-to-speech component should be changed so we can highlight which portions of the text we want read to us or repeated.Edit: requires an interface revamp to make it easier to navigate and also smoother to use. Please also update for iPhone X support.
Doesn’t work correctly.
I cannot log into this app to save my life. Resetting my password does not work. I can log in on my laptop so I know my password and login but I cannot get on this app. Unfortunately I need it for nursing school and you’d think with how expensive textbooks are you’d think the app would work properly. Don’t even waste the space on your phone downloading it.
Like a literal broken record
The reader will re-read the same sentence over and over, or sometimes the same paragraphs. You can get out of the app and back in the app or go to a different section of the book and come back to it and it will still repeat it like a broken record. There seems to be no rhyme or reason and this happens constantly. Unfortunately it’s unreliable and unusable.
