Doesn’t save place

Every time I pause my audiobook it starts replaying from a previous place. Seems like lots of other reviews mention the same issue and it hasn’t been fixed.

Response from developer

We're sorry to hear about the issue you've experienced with the app losing your place - we know it's terribly frustrating! The good news is we have introduced several updates that should have resolved this issue with the most recent version of the app. Thank you for helping us support local bookstores!

Sync issue

I love the mission and ethos. And for a year, the app worked great, but recently, when reading a book and picking it up later, I sync back to the wrong place, and I have shuffled through 15 pages to find my place.

If this can be fixed, I’ll gladly change my review. Everything else about the app is great

Forgets your place

This app works for reading but forgets your place if you dare to quit. Additionally it forgets your place if your device switches from portrait to landscape mode which is incredibly frustrating. As soon as I've read the books I downloaded I shall switch to kindle.

DRM

I’m anti-DRM and one app lock in

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your feedback; we understand that the DRM protections can be frustrating. The good news is we have many titles that are DRM-free in the app, and we are diligently working to offer more solutions for the DRM-protected titles, as set by the publisher. We will ensure your feedback is shared with the team so we can continue to improve the experience.
