### 3/5 — Needs improvement

*2025-08-08, version 2.8*

An excellent app but the problem is sometimes “highlighter” doesn’t work. 
Also the book never opens in full screen mode. A lot of space is occupied by the app name and a bar to slide the pages quickly. These two never disappear and annoys.
The images used for descriptions of the content do not open in full screen and can’t even be zoomed. So labellings in the diagram becomes non-readable.

### 3/5 — Chapter missing..

*2024-08-02, version 2.7*

Reproductive Health chapter from class 12 Bio NCERT book is missing..

The option is written Reproductive Health but when i open it it opens HUMAN REPRODUCTION chapter !!
