Not any good
I was looking for app that I can load my books to and this isn’t it tbh I should have researched it bitJem804
Underrated App!
So amazing being able to access so many amazing books 😁 love it!
Edit: unfortunately paid twice to remove ads and they're still there 😠 paid for full version because loved the product, and paid for remove ads separately after since I thought it might be extra, neither worked; so frustratingBigDaddyAaaav
Pretty good - annoying audio
The app works well, its a nice interface, typeface is clear. The audio turns itself on, when I have not opened the app and is annoying. I have tried to shut it down, but can only doing so by turning off my ipad.Carstairs Labatte

Hi Carstairs, Thank you very much for sharing with us your experience. By design, this app allows users to listen to audiobooks when the app is running in the background. To turn off audio, you can either (1) stop/pause audio from audiobook interface, or (2) close the app (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201330). However, if these methods do not work for your device, could you please kindly send us the steps to duplicate the problem? We will try our best to fix it asap. Please do feel most welcome to contact us via email (tap ? on the HOME screen of this app). Thank you again. Your App Developer.Boring UI

I paid but the ad banner is still there. What happened?el915
Developer Response
Hi, el915 Thank you for your feedback. The only way this could happen is that the option to show ads has been 'accidentally' switched on. By default it should be off. To turn off ads display, please tap the 'gear icon' on this app's home screen to show 'setting' and then switch off the option called "Display Ads". Thank you again for giving us your feedback.

This is nothing more than you can find on any one of a dozen free “classic” book apps. I’m reading some Hemingway on the free Gutenberg website, but the PDF formatting can be a bit challenging. So I figured I would find the same here in a more reader friendly format. Wrong. Just the same old Sherlock Holmes and Jane Austen that litter the free readers that are rampant in the App Store. Save yourself three bucks and run from this thing as fast as you can.Show lessRdwing64

Hi, Rdwing64 There is a free version of this app, identical in functionality to the paid version. Most people would use this free version before they feel the need to pay a $2.99. Please do contact Apple's App Store for a refund if you are not satisfied with your purchase. It is our desire to make all our customers appreciate the value of our product and service. Thank you for sharing with us your experience and wish you many happy readings of Gutenberg books. Himalaya-Soft SupportTTS
I use TTS and it works pretty good. The voices actually have some inflection in them so they sound pretty good. Every once in awhile it gets stuck and I get a spoken error message that I think says something like “evaluate the owner of string”. I just turn it off and restart it and go back to page.Nansdogo
Developer Response
Hi, Nansdogo Thank you for using the TTS feature in our app. It is our belief that TTS is improving rapidly in the last few years and it will soon be able to do most of the readings where the display of human emotion is not critical or needed and where human-read books are not available. One additional advantage of TTS is that the voice is always very clear and steady and no-objectionably human noises are present. Wish you many hours of happy reading and listening in Gutenberg App. Himalaya_soft SupportThe paid version is better and cheaper
Used both the free and the paid versions. For $2.99 you are free from the pop-up. However, if you are unwilling to part with your $2.99, you can continue to use the free version without limit, that was what I did in the past until I finally decided that I deserve to enjoying my reading in peace.cal_12
Guetenberg - A world of books!!!!
This is a great app that needs a OSX Mac companion app (only thing really missing) that can synced thru iTunes or iCloud.
I have read so many good old detective mystery books I think I ran out!!! I am into fiction and drama now, so we will see what surprises await!Tikiatybme
