    Hello MaryJo9, thank you for your review. We are glad you are enjoying EasyReader! If you have any specific feedback for the app, please let us know in an email to inapp@yourdolphin.com!
  • Using voiceover

    So I love this app, but lately when I swipe three fingers up or down, it moves to another section of the book, it used to be when you were done with a chapter, you swipe down to the bottom and press next, but when i do that, it moves some where else, and I don’t know where it puts me.

    Developer Response

    Hi Sweet pea 1 to 2, we appreciate your feedback, we are always working towards improving the VoiceOver experience with the app for users and understand the frustrations when issues like this arise, We would appreciate it if you could email inapp@yourdolphin.com with any issues regarding voice over and EasyReader you are experiencing so we can try to resolve these for you. Thanks
  • I guess it would be ok

    This is unfortunate. Wanted, hoped this was going to be good but nope. You can’t even open ebooks that are stored on your device. This is basically a link app to various online library’s. Pointless really. Im not about to sign up for yet another library link. And why does this app have a section for showing all my clipboard stuff. Don’t ever copy any passwords as the people behind this app will see all your clipboard info. I can’t comment on the reading option since again i cant open any ebooks on my ipad and not signing up for any online stores.

    Developer Response

    Hi wetfrog, Sorry to hear you have had issues with the app. EasyReader allows users to read books and view print media in an accessible way by letting users dictate the reader style and settings that are easiest for them. You are able to open books that are localy stored on your device, to do this you need to press and hold on the file and select share, you can then select the EasyReader app from the share menu, this will then allow you to open the file within EasyReader. As for clipboard texts, Only the clipboard texts you choose to paste into the app can be stored to the app. Users may want to keep passages of books or pieces of information in this area which will allow them to access this clipboard text in a visually accessible way and even allows these saved texts to be accessed on multple devices when used along side a premium plan. The EasyReader app does come with one free content provider which is named "Project Gutenberg" which you can use if you do not have access or wish to get access to the other content providers we support. If you are having further issues with the app or wish to make any other issues known then please email inapp@yourdolphin.com
