### 3/5 — Please add a dark mode option

*2024-07-03, version 3.8.2*

Title says it all. I enjoy the app and it works pretty well in my experience however adding dark mode would make this app an easy 4-5 stars.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2022-10-07, version 3.8.1*

Would be better if app offered audio option.

### 3/5 — Videos

*2020-05-19, version 3.2.8*

The app isn’t bad. They recently fix the bottom bar to be viewable however, when there is a video i can never access it from my iPad

### 2/5 — Navigation problems

*2020-01-30, version 3.2.7*

The bottom bar is now almost impossible to see the nav icons, which makes it really frustrating to move about the text. You can’t see exactly where to touch to begin a search, and navigating search results is also difficult. It didn’t used to be this hard, so I feel REALLY bad for anyone new to the platform. I know there is a button for that, and I can tap around until I get it right, but if I didn’t know, what would I do?  It has also become so difficult to turn pages that if I can’t catch it right the first time, I open the menu to get to the next section. Did I mention how you can’t see the nav icons at the bottom? Right, so THAT is also not as easy as it should be.

For every problem I discover wrong with this app I will deduct a star. My problems right now is this app is so hypersensitive! With the slightest touch words get highlighted and it’s aggravating. I don’t have the greatest of eye sight so I have to zoom in due to the letters being so small. I have to scroll side to side to read the text and due to the app having a swipe feature if I scroll to hard or fast it will either go back a page or go forward a page. When I go back to my page I’ve lost my place! I did online schooling at another school (Penn Foster) and their system was so much better. Easy it didn’t have the swipe feature, highlighting was easy (and had an array of colors), you could underline words or sentences, highlight a word for the definition, and zoom in and out no problems. Their app actually had a good rating unlike any of Ashford apps. Maybe you guys should check out their system and what their doing right.

### 2/5 — Can’t read searches

*2020-01-13, version 3.2.7*

The toolbar on the bottom used to be visible for easy access to table of contents and searching. With the latest update, the bar is white with white or just off white color of icons. This also happens in the search bar, the text is white so it’s not readable. The functions are very important. Please fix them!

### 3/5 — Search function

*2019-11-13, version 3.2.7*

The most current updates have fixed many of the issues. With that said, I am still having problems with the search function.

### 2/5 — Error

*2019-11-01, version 3.2.6*

I usually love this app, but I cannot see any of the “buttons” at the bottom. They’re just a square with a question mark in them. Also, when I try to search something, I can’t see what I’m typing.

### 3/5 — Worked great till recently

*2019-06-12, version 3.2.3*

Have not been able to take the quizzes.... Which really is difficult on an Ipad to begin with.

### 3/5 — Nice for On-The-Go

*2019-01-21, version 3.2.1*

Great for on the go reading, but your notes and highlighting does not transfer to your computer version.

### 1/5 — GARBAGE

*2017-08-10, version 3.1.0*

This app is a glorified web browser. Endless scrolling, fixed font size . . . when it doesnt crash.  They off er epub versions of the books but everyone of them is broken and missing content. Its embaradding that someone thinks this is a quality solution. Shame on you Bridgepoint, for all the money you charge this is just pure laziness.

### 1/5 — Please have a function to delete a highlight!

*2017-04-27, version 3.1.0*

Also if I delete a book, it should delete highlights and notes, and when redownload don't download two copies of the same book in one book. Is nobody fixing these glitches?

### 1/5 — Fix the bugs!

*2017-01-12, version 3.1.0*

It was working for my 2 weeks of class. My 3rd week it won't even let me do anything without kicking me out of the app. I've tried to delete it and add it back and now it won't let me download the books I need.

### 2/5 — Eh

*2017-01-04, version 3.1.0*

Great concept but continues to crash while trying to use.

### 1/5 — Does this app even work?

*2016-12-10, version 3.1.0*

It constantly crashes, there are a lot of bugs that need to be fixed.  I'm actually really disappointed with this app.

### 3/5 — Simple Ebook

*2016-08-29, version 3.1.0*

Online, via a laptop or desktop, when accessing the Ebooks there is a way to access audio book versions too. It's a shame that you can't do the same via this app.

### 1/5 — Student

*2016-08-16, version 3.1.0*

If I could give this app negative stars, I would! I have NEVER been able to use it...EVER! It does not work. And I emailed support...nothing...no response!

### 3/5 — Good start. Needs some work

*2016-08-09, version 3.1.0*

I like how I can take my reading on the go. Unfortunately there seems to be one additional issue I noticed outside of what others are saying. When I highlight a text, it is not allowing me to change the color. This feature was available in the past, but doesn't seem to work at the moment. Otherwise a solid app.

### 1/5 — Almost never works

*2026-01-07, version 3.8.2*

This app is required for texts for my coursework via UAGC, yet it almost never works. It always states I have to log in again and cannot authenticate me. Books won’t download. This is not a way to run a college that is completely based online. Please fix this UAGC

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2021-10-25, version 3.7.0*

The app wasn’t great to begin with but now it crashes each time I try to open it and login.

### 1/5 — New User

*2021-03-27, version 3.7.0*

I downloaded this app in hopes to have access to my book materials, but I’m unable to navigate the app what so ever. Once I log into the app it states that I have no downloads available. If I wanted to attempt to fix this I can’t because there is no bar or tab that is available. It only provides me with a logout, tutorial, and contact us option/s.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-03-05, version 3.2.8*

Part of the beauty of being enrolled in an online program is the ability to have flexibility in the avenues available to complete work. That beauty is disrupted when those avenues are constantly disrupted by an application offered that just cannot get it right. After dealing with the madness of not being interfaced to work with Dark Mode on iOS for literal months, now the application is closing immediately upon opening. This is terrible.

### 1/5 — Ashford

*2020-01-28, version 3.2.7*

The quality of this app is poor. You want to keep students in those books to meet their goals then listen. After a long day of work, I don't understand for the life of me why the toolbar is so contrasted. I need to read my notes and actually see what I'm reading before guessing..once again. It would be nice to diversify your highlight and notepad colors.

### 1/5 — Toolbar is not visible

*2020-01-25, version 3.2.7*

Where is the toolbar? 
I can not navigate the app/book. 
Preventing me from being able to read on my brand new iPhone. 
Will not recommend. 
Poor design.

### 1/5 — This app is glitchy

*2019-10-29, version 3.2.6*

I don’t like the fact that you can’t download textbooks (that we paid for by the way) to keep forever. I also hate that there isn’t seamless integration across multiple devices because I’ve had problems picking up from where I left off on my PC, laptop , phone or tablet and make studying time consuming. I would give this app zero stars if I could as it is hindering and not helping my ability to study without being glued to a PC for hours.

### 1/5 — Can’t download textbooks

*2019-09-30, version 3.2.6*

Doesn’t work. Books now download but the navigation bar is invisible on ios 13. I can’t see bookmarks,home, or how to get to the chapters to go to different areas of the book.
Please fix.

### 1/5 — Fix Bugs

*2018-03-31, version 3.1.1*

I cannot read my books when I am on the train, a blank screen shows until I’m outside again. My highlights are not transferred to the other devices I use. I cannot highlight in different colors unless I am on a desktop or laptop. The media embedded, plays when it wants to, and not when you need it.

### 1/5 — 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽

*2017-09-15, version 3.1.0*

I don't even know what the app can do because every time I try to open my e book the app keep crashing. I deleted it and re- downloaded it and the same thing happened again. Thought I could use my book on the go.

### 5/5 — Finally font size adjustment!

*2019-04-24, version 3.2.2*

Thank you for this great improvement to the app. This makes a world of difference for usability.

### 5/5 — Easy!!

*2015-08-20, version 2.0.307*

Works like a charm, I use it every night to read me book! So convenient..

### 5/5 — Love the New Look

*2014-05-07, version 2.0.265*

It’s a great app, some things took getting used to, but now that I’ve been using it for a few weeks, I thoroughly enjoy the reading experience.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2012-03-26, version 1.5*

This app is awesome. I personally this app is better then viewing the books online through the school website. I love the fact that I can view all the pages in a chapter, and then choose what page I want. Thank you for this.

### 5/5 — Changed the way I learn

*2012-01-26, version 1.5*

I love this app.  It brings my textbooks right to me.  I don't have to lug around a backpack full of books.  I can learn in bite sized pieces at my leisure.  I love being able to search my textbooks and the highlighting experience is great as well.  All my notes and highlights are saved so they display when I use Constellation on the web.  Great app.

### 4/5 — Great for reading the text on the go

*2016-11-22, version 3.1.0*

This app is great, I would love if they could put the audio for it on here as well.

### 4/5 — Great Application

*2014-09-01, version 2.0.307*

This application is simplistic but completes it's purpose. It allows viewing of your online reading material which compliments the Ashford University mobile application. I only give the app four stars because there is always room for improvement.

### 4/5 — What time is it?

*2014-06-05, version 2.0.265*

I can't tell while studying in the new version.  Nor can I see how much battery power I have. I find this info important while studying. Other than that the new version is great and hasn't crashed once.  I do miss the chapter overviews, tho.

### 4/5 — Overall, this app is helpful

*2012-09-05, version 1.7.1*

I like this app because I'm not constrained to reading off of my laptop screen when I don't want to or have the space. I like the notebook feature that stores my highlights in one place for me to go back over. I would have to say that the worst thing about the app is having to babysit downloads, because if my screen turns off during the download I get an error saying the book could not be downloaded and to try again later. So that's a bit annoying. But, all-in-all, it is a helpful app to have for the vigilant Ashford University student.

### 4/5 — Wonderfully helpful

*2011-09-14, version 1.0*

Just downloaded the constellation app for iPad. What a help. I was going into the constellation site through the student portal and downloading the books as PDF then copying them to dropbox and uploading to iBooks. This worked well but takes a lot of steps. I'm sure glad this app is here. Although, I am not a fan of how you have to navigate the chapter sections. I prefer to flip pages instead of navigating up and down within a section. Something to get used to. I may still use the PDFs and dropbox to get books into iBooks so I don't need the Internet connection to do some reading.
