### 1/5 — Questions

*2026-07-22, version 4.1.8*

Does this app not have a text-to-speech feature? Also, why isn’t it updating? Have you completely stopped providing maintenance updates?

### 5/5 — Fabulous

*2026-07-13, version 4.1.8*

i looove this reader. it has a simple interface. very user- friendly.

just a few bugs and glitches in functionality.
please fix these.
your product will be amaaazing!!

### 2/5 — Almost there

*2026-06-23, version 4.1.8*

I would use this app with one more feature. I have come to much prefer reading in portrait mode with 2 columns on the page. Can’t do that here.

### 5/5 — Ebook Reader

*2026-05-28, version 4.1.8*

Excellent app. Love it. But do have one question. How do you permanently remove an ebook from your library. Everytime I try to remove an ebook. If I have to close out the app, or restart my phone. The ebook reappears when I open the app again.

### 2/5 — Repeatedly won’t open

*2026-05-12, version 4.1.8*

My downloaded pamphlets are routinely failing.

### 1/5 — Terrible UX

*2026-05-04, version 4.1.8*

The interface is constantly getting over the text, making it impossible to read first and last lines. Font size at 100% is annoyingly small, and next step is 125% which is too large

### 1/5 — Zero (0) stars at all

*2026-04-04, version 4.1.8*

The app is such an artefact from a "Once upon a time": ugly, no reading comfort, not intuitive in use … at least an argument to buy e-books *not* on ebooks.com

### 2/5 — Support the website, not the app

*2026-03-16, version 4.1.8*

I like supporting ebooks.com to try to keep the ebook market competitive but the app leaves a lot to be desired. The biggest issues are bad hyphenation, lack of alternative fonts, klutzy interface. I wish they’d pay attention to it. In the meantime Bluefire is far better.

### 2/5 — Abandoned all

*2026-03-15, version 4.1.8*

It performs the basic functions but is lacking in many modern features and has seemingly been abandoned with no updates in years. Most annoyingly it doesn't keep my phone from going to sleep while trying to read and no search function.

### 1/5 — simply horrible : is this even updated ?

*2026-03-14, version 4.1.8*

what an horrible app : GUI, navigation, content display. I so regret buying from ebooks.com such a terrible experience
