### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-03-30*

This app is useless. Needs serious improvements

### 1/5 — This is a terrible app

*2021-03-17*

This app is terrible and I hope ASCP fixes it. Search function is bad. I cannot even highlight reliably. Nothing works. I want to buy their books but I hate hardcovers and I hate this app even more, so now I am just stuck with not buying their books.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy it

*2021-01-24*

This app is a scam.

### 1/5 — Poor quality app

*2017-05-24*

Very disappointed in the ASCP. The app does not meet expectations. Not professional at all. Will not buy ASCP eBooks again.

### 1/5 — Continued Regret

*2016-10-05*

I reviewed this app before the last update (Feb 2016). At that time, time app was terrible. Unsurprisingly, nothing has changed. The book still defaults to the instruction screen. It may be a little faster to open, but I can't say for sure. Navigating the book is a chore. Opening the table of contents hides any text you were reading and there is no easy way to move back and forth. Trying to open a chapter to view the subsections is slow and painful. There is no support for many of the newer (not actually new) iOS features including slide over and side by side view. I continue to regret buying the ebook version.

### 1/5 — Worst eBook reader ever

*2015-04-11, version 5.0.2*

I wish that I had the authority to fire everyone involved with this eBook reader, including the administrators who approved it. Please outsource this to someone else, such as Kindle.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on iPhone 6

*2014-11-12*

The books I have purchased are all corrupt and won't open anymore since I've upgraded my iPhone to 6 plus 
Please fix this ASAP. I've paid quite a bit for these ebooks and expect to use them

### 1/5 — Not working

*2014-05-10*

You can't even purchase book on here...
