### 4/5 — Impressive Work

*2023-12-26, version 2.1.0*

Using iPad. Does a good useful level of utility and display for me. I have used several readers and this fits well with enhancements and readability. Thanks.

### 3/5 — Much to be improved (08/2020)

*2020-08-11*

The app needs to be improved. When slanting the device to read more easily, the rendering goes insane, putting a ridiculous gap between the pages of the file. One can fix this but the option is not stored so one needs to change the settings each time. In general one must admit that the rendering is far from optimal. Moreover, it doesn’t support searching for words, which is really a must. 

Think it twice before buying this app.

### 2/5 — Some DjVu files no longer readable

*2018-06-16, version 2.0.24*

After the latest update some djvu files can only be read in few pages. Then it turns blank. Do not update if you have not done it yet.

### 4/5 — Seems to work well.

*2017-10-21, version 2.0.17*

Seems to work well. Would be nice to be able to see thumbnails of pages.

### 2/5 — Плохо!

*2016-12-13*

Криво отображается, всё время вылетает

### 1/5 — Mr

*2014-10-28, version 2.0.12*

Do not waste your money. The app does not work well. It is unstable and has a lot of bugs. To list two: it does not recognize some folders in the dropbox, and the icon of the file in the folders’ menu keep disappearing. The app has potencial, but much work must be done before it is usable.

### 4/5 — One of the best program for djvu

*2014-09-15*

It's really one of the best program for djvu, but it's no stable for pdf. Please, make menu  a little bit easy, more useable, that Your mark will be 5. Thank you for App.

### 4/5 — 迫切需要修正的不是什么bug

*2014-08-23*

而是那奇葩的翻页方式！你希望页面垂直滚动连续翻页，结果却是横向连续滚动。如果是古装书籍，竖版印刷方式，这确实不错，可现代的阅读习惯和印刷方式都是一行一行来的，还有谁一列一列看书的？

### 1/5 — Mise à jour défectueuse

*2014-08-22*

Même problème depuis la dernière mise à jour: l'application se lance puis se ferme... J'espère que cela sera vite corrigée.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2014-08-22, version 2.0.11*

This used to be a really good app but over time has become completely unusable and useless after numerous updates.

### 1/5 — 111

*2014-08-22*

Не работает

### 1/5 — Вылетает

*2014-08-21*

После обновления невозможно пользоваться - вылетает.

### 1/5 — 闪退

*2014-08-18*

升级后闪退，没法看电子书了！请赶快修复！

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2014-02-25, version 2.0.9*

Earlier versions were great, it was the best djvu reader for me. But after updating I've gotten an awful piece of ****, for 6 bucks I paid for it earlier.

### 1/5 — Money waste

*2019-04-09*

It’s a total money waste. Don’t buy it.

### 1/5 — 购买之后总是闪退？！

*2019-03-10*

太吃亏了!

### 1/5 — Исправьте баги

*2016-11-09*

Чем дальше тем хуже. После последнего обновления постоянно вылетает, iPad mini2, OS10. Каждое обновление прибавляет проблем.

### 1/5 — Last update killed the program

*2016-09-17*

Please fix the program. After last update the program works very bad!!! The program Works very slow and take off(((

### 1/5 — Big bag

*2016-03-20*

If you try to read any document you can not back to menu without restart of IPad. It is very stuppied

### 1/5 — Управление документом отсутствует

*2016-02-11*

После открытия документа пропадает возможность вернуться в архив, искать нужную страницу, приходится перематывать с начала или перегружаться

### 1/5 — 不好用

*2015-05-22*

原来只用goodreader读PDF电子书的，最近因为下载了很多中美百万的电子书，都是djvu格式的，又懒得自己一个一个转成pdf，因此打算买一个好用的djvu阅读软件。前后买了三个。用下来最好的是Ltd Develsoftware开发的djvu reader。翻页和显示都不错，那个还只要18元。我是用了那个后才来买这个的。虽然要30元，如果确实能比之前的好用也值了，但是用下来，觉得还不如之前的，主要是翻页显示不行，不流畅，不好用。也没有批注功能。goodreader阅读扫描版pdf就能做批注。

### 1/5 — Не рекомендую

*2015-04-20*

С толстыми книгами работает крайне нестабильно, вылетает почти от любого касания. Приходится записывать номер текущей читаемой страницы, т.к. после такого "вылета" книга открывается как в первый раз.
Но, по сравнению с некоторыми аналогичными программами, имеет лучшее качество изображения отсканированного текста.

### 1/5 — Мертвое приложение

*2015-01-21*

Когда-то она и была хорошей, но сейчас читалка мертва. Из платных djvu читалок советую kybook.

### 1/5 — Весьма посредственно

*2014-11-21*

На мой взгляд, определённо слабое приложение, если сравнивать с другими, предназначенными для чтения djvu файлов (например, TotalReader или KyBook). Аляповатый дизайн, отсутствие русского языка, замысловатое управление. Долгое время с этими недостатками приходилось мириться из-за отсутствия достойных конкурентов. Сейчас ситуация с «читалками» иная, поэтому я бы не рекомендовал эту программу.

### 5/5 — This is my main DjVu reader

*2022-09-14, version 2.1.0*

Thank you for the program. Keep improving it.

### 5/5 — Image disappears...

*2018-04-09*

...when zooming in. 
5 stars - in advance.

### 5/5 — Merci

*2016-11-08*

Merci pour la correction . Excellente application. Un grand bravo au développeur.

### 5/5 — 非常好用！

*2014-11-29*

非常好用，特别是竖排的书籍。终于能够在pad上看古籍了！导入书籍最好使用itool，比较方便快捷。软件是全英文的，不过菜单并不复杂～全英文软件竟然是看中国古籍利器，真是中西合璧…

### 5/5 — Отлично работает

*2014-08-24*

После очередного обновления все отлично  - читаем!

### 5/5 — Must have!

*2014-08-24*

Best app for DjVu

### 5/5 — Improved

*2013-11-24, version 2.0.4*

The latest version has fixed many serious problems present before making this the best available software for reading djvu files.

### 5/5 — The only sane djvu app

*2013-04-22, version 1.5.1*

Prior to buying this app I tried Stanza and then Djvu Viewer from Caminova. Neither had support for the retina display nor did they preserve the zoom factor when switching from one page to the next. Digging around I found that Djvu Reader has these features and now I'm very happy to have bought it. No more having to convert djvu to PDF for a sane reading experience. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Good app

*2013-03-12, version 1.5.1*

I live on this app as a graduate student and over all I prefer it to the apple djvu reader.  It would be nice if its interface wasn't from the 1970's, but in a way it makes the app only more endearing.  My only complaints are the advance ten page button is kind of small so you often accidentally skip to the end of a doc, and it is dangerously easy to accidentally erase documents whilst editing with no recourse in case a mistake is made... Still, I use it for hundreds of research papers, so Id say buy it.

### 5/5 — Great DjVu-Reader

*2013-01-04*

Now, finally I can read my DjVu-Files on the iPad. The software is fast and easy to use. It's worth the money.
