### 2/5 — Liked it when it worked

*2023-09-19*

I downloaded a  Canon camera book at least two years ago and everything worked fine. I really liked it. Now it doesn’t work at all. Please fix this so I can utilize it again.

Thanks

### 1/5 — Disappeared

*2021-04-11, version 3.0.1*

I purchased the canon 70d app a while ago. Now it has disappeared only a gray background when I open it. All the page book marks appear on the bottom but no text.

### 1/5 — Failed to give me my purchase!

*2021-03-24, version 3.0.1*

Download for my Canon 1D Mk IV won't execute. Took my money.  March 23, 2021.

### 1/5 — Do not buy this!!

*2020-11-24, version 3.0.1*

Doesn’t work!  Support does not exist! Has not been updated in over 3 years!!  Only gave it one star because it won’t let me give it none!!!

### 1/5 — You pay but doesn’t open!

*2020-11-16, version 3.0.1*

I bought a manual. It won’t open on iPad or iPhone.

### 1/5 — Google is free

*2020-10-09, version 3.0.1*

They want to charge you. Google is free

### 1/5 — Why are you charging for this?

*2020-06-24, version 3.0.1*

Seriously what is the point of charging your customers for a pdf of the Manuel that came with my camera and I can download for free from your wedsite?

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2020-01-24, version 3.0.1*

It would be a lot easier to open up Safari and google your specific products manual. I honestly thought I had a cool app that had an awesome database with ads. Which in turn would charge me like $5 to remove ads. However what you actually get is a service charge if $2.99 per manual. Please don’t be fooled you can find any products manual online.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore

*2018-11-27, version 3.0.1*

This app used to handy if you didn’t want to pack multiple manuals in your kit. However for the last few months I haven’t been able to view the files I purchased.

### 1/5 — So bad. All the book. It’s PDF from canon, you take 2$ for free PDF, Why?

*2018-10-09, version 3.0.1*

So bad. All the book. It’s PDF from canon, you take 2$ for free PDF, Why?
How i can back my money?
