User reviews

Useless

This is a terrible app. It provides only the most basic reading features, with no effective highlighting or annotation functions that are standard in any reading app. Navigation is slow and very cumbersome, the few available functions are often unresponsive.
Proquest should return to the use of Adobe Digital Editions until a much better app has been developed.

Not user friendly

Page numbers start on cover. Cannot increase the size of font ( selected button but it would not load); cannot browse contents (again selected button but it would not load); cannot highlight text. Not good for students or academics alike. Browser equivalent is equally disappointing.

Poor Visuals - basically unreadable

While the app will send you a copy of the book, it’s virtually unreadable both on iPhone and iPad. I don’t understand why or how such a low quality app exists? This was prompted through my university. Is someone getting a kickback or some other form of corruption? If any University/State money went to supporting this app, someone belongs in jail.
