App

This app not working

Crashes immediately

The app doesn't even load. Too bad.

Does not work

Diwnloaded for the 4th time and still doesn’t work.

Content moved to new app?

This app used to have amazing content for practicing reading comprehension. It seems like the publisher consolidated all the different leveled content into a single app now. Having this broken and unsupported app still in the store is very confusing.

Doesn’t open

This is a great app, and I have spent quite a bit of money purchasing books for my children, but this app no longer opens and I can’t access my previously purchased content.
