### 5/5 — Frontcover ver. 2.11 March 2016

*2017-03-16*

This is a brilliant App for avid book readers. However, this latest update is incompatible with iPod touch 5th generation running iOS 9.3.5 Why?
Please rectify this problem and justify the 5* this app deserves. Thanks.
P.S.  Every time I update my other Apps, I get a request to update 'Frontcover', yet you don't support the iPod touch with iOS 9.3.5. Please correct this problem. Thank you. 

P.S.  One year has passed by (now March 2017) but still this App is incompatible with an iPod 5 running iOS 9.3.5 !!! Please, please rectify or stop the update request message. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Must have

*2013-03-10*

As a busy mother, I have trouble having time to discuss books with my friends. We now use this app to share book ideas. We love the ability to share book ideas and notes with each other directly from within the app. A must have for any avid reader or student!!!

### 5/5 — Big Help

*2013-02-21*

I'm a big library book reader. I love this app for helping me keep track of my reading.

When I decide to read a series, I put the entire series on my FUTURE READING list. When order the book from the library, I move the book to my ORDERED list and then to a PICKUP list when they send me an email that the book is available. Finally, it goes to my current reading and past reading lists. Imagine! I used to track books with 3x5 cards. 

If you enjoy reading, you've got to have this app.

### 5/5 — Love It!

*2013-02-21*

I love the new interface to iTunes that allows me to quickly and easily download the next book on my reading list. I use the app to track notes on each book so I can keep track of the characters. Very helpful. I do wish the app allowed me to send books as gifts to my friends or family. I love that I can see the author's entire series by tapping his or her name. 

I use it on an iPad mini and its great.

### 5/5 — Nice app!

*2013-02-21*

I have been using FrontCover from the first release. Although there were some minor glitches with the first version, the developers have been quick to address my issues. The newest version fixes my remaining issue.

I listen to audio books as I commute and work at my desk. Tracking the books I have listened to and those on my wish list is great. I like the sort and search functions. Sometimes, I can only remember something about the book but not the title. Just entering a couple key words helps me quickly locate the book.

I appreciate being able to touch the author's name to get the series and similar book searches. It's fast and easy.

If you read, you should have this app.

### 1/5 — My list titles disappear

*2013-01-13*

After following directions to create my own lists, I then searched for a book to add to the list.  My list name could not be found again.
