## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish

*2015-06-05*

Every time the update happens keeps on loosing all the books. Very poorly integrated app. Will not recommend at all👎👎👎

### 1/5 — Why do I need iTunes?

*2012-11-07*

Why is it that I can't open PDFs directly (eg from email) like I can in any other PDF reader: adobe, iBooks, kindle etc.
And I have to transfer them using iTunes. I don't have a computer with iTunes on it since this is not a requirement since before ios5. Sort it out!

### 1/5 — Not Working

*2012-10-12*

I downloaded so I could review the modified pdf I bought from Koren Publishers, Shabbot 1.  It would not take my code.

### 2/5 — Need 'Open In' function

*2012-02-09*

It works fine, but cannot open PDF within iPad via emails or web. It would be better if there were 'Open In' function then I wouldn't need to connect to PC every time I need read anything.

### 3/5 — It lets you read the book, but nothing more

*2012-11-09*

I downloaded this to read the Tractate Shabbat Part 1 form Koren Publishers. While it faithfully reproduces the book, it is missing key features iPad users expect. While it allows pinching and spreading to contract and expand text, t here is no way to highlight or bookmark text, or make and preserve notes near text. Given the subject matter the app is used to read, this is a significant lapse.
