  • Non-functional

    Basically you download a book and can’t view its content, very useful.
  • This app is awful

    This app is, without hyperbole, garbage. Everyone involved in the creation and design of this app should reevaluate their life choices. I have over 800 dollars worth of texts in this app - not by choice, they were assigned via various schools and training programs - and I can't access a single one. I've reinstalled the app. I've re-downloaded the books. I am stuck at a splash screen that says "X book is ready" but nothing happens when I hit the "start reading" button.

    Last time this app was updated was 3 years ago, so I doubt any of these issues will be fixed. But if your school gives up a link to an inkling download, please do anything to trade it for something that's actually usable.

  • Cannot open anything

    Cannot open downloaded content
  • Downloaded but cannot view any chapters

    I have several text books and I am able to download them, however when I try to actually read the books I cannot.
  • This comment was made 3 years ago by someone and it’s still the same problem…

    I have been using this app for long time and it was fairly good when I first used it (apart from some annoying issues in photo imaging). Unfortunately, it got worse and worse to the point where I cannot use it at all now. In addition to the many faulty issues that other reviewers pointed out here, now, l cannot even open any e-book I bought and downloaded in my book library! It just says loading when I open any title with empty white page. I deleted the app and reinstalled it but no change. I am very disappointed with this and stopped buying from the store anymore. Now I'm forced to use other apps to buy and download medical books and what's really upsetting is that I cannot read my already purchased books in this app anymore, and they're not cheap books. I was really hoping this app be as professional and efficient as it should be, but unfortunately it drifted away from that path. I still have hope that they can fix it and improve it significantly, soon.

  • Terrible App

    Have hundreds of dollars of medical textbooks that I would like to read on my iPad so I don’t have to carry 100lbs of books with me. This app is awful. Have worked with customer support for weeks trying to make multiple books that I have redeemed pop up into my library. I give up. Don’t waste your time or money on elsevier.

  • Terrible Navigation

    The only reason I have this app is because my medical school books are electronic. Whenever I try to scroll down on a page this app interprets this as scrolling left and right. I waste so much of my time just trying to get this app to do what I want it to and in medical school I literally have no time to waste. If I could use a different app I would. If this is a book specific issue this is still on the app manufacturer to fix; the books they are allowing on their app shows how carefully they consider the use of their product.

  • Amazing but lack basics options

    Works great, easy to read and switch from figure to text. Lacks a bookmark to follow previous reading, lacks options to anotate books (highlight, write text with apple pen).
  • Obsolete ludicrous cheap.

    This is TRAVESTY. As many reviewers noted this app is the obsolete garbage. In the year 2022 students and scholars would expect to have a sophisticated ebook reader which would enable them at minimum - to highlights in different colors and styles and would allow for elaborate notes. This app do not offer those features. It is enraging that this is the only option available for ,any classic medical textbooks. Absolute travesty.

  • Bring the app update to the 21st century

    This app is horrible to work with you can’t share or export the book you bought to any other app like goodnotes or Google Drive. This app does not support Apple Pencil and the highlighting is atrocious at best. Thought this would be the better option to write on since I do digital notes but will just go back to the paper book. Since I own that book and can highlight and write notes anywhere on it.
