### 3/5 — 怎么不更新了？会员不便宜呢

*2025-11-20*

比起其他家第三方阅读器，还有很多可以更新的点吧。

### 1/5 — 根本用不了

*2025-09-14*

从七八月份我就开始已经用不了，长期不更新，闪退问题没回应。退款也早已过了日期，阅读长时间闪退，阅读统计不记录时长，刚开始软件很好，特别同步方面，现在太令人失望了。

**Developer response:** 感谢支持，我们会继续努力的

### 1/5 — 有bug

*2025-09-07*

功能排版都很不错，但有些书籍导入就会出问题 测试别的app没问题，看来只能放弃了
如果不卡死我会一直用这个app下去

### 4/5 — 反馈

*2025-07-30*

阅读到某个时候，屏幕会空白，点击无反应，需要退出软件重新进入才会恢复正常。

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2025-07-12*

The best local e-book reading app for iPhone, with excellent layout effects for English books.

### 5/5 — 很捧的读书App

*2025-06-11*

可以增加一个按章节停止语音的功能吗？即语音停止的触发条件是朗读完一章或几章后，而不是按照时间来控制。

### 5/5 — 看我，划线问题很大

*2025-06-03*

划线色块太暗，可以给出下划线选择或提高透明度。有的一句话因为分页，或者没分页也不能连起来划线，会断开。

### 4/5 — 经常崩溃闪退

*2025-05-31*

下载使用了快2周，看完了一本小说，不知道发生啥了，最近两三天经常闪退，没有任何提示，就是按不动，好不容易切出去了，用别的app又没事，再点进去又卡。
而且最近点开小说要好久才反应过来。。。不知道啥情况。一开始用得挺好的。。

### 4/5 — 软件打开卡顿

*2025-05-29*

出现半死机状态，幸亏没付费，溜了溜了

### 4/5 — 能不能更新整本书去除文字或者标题规则

*2025-05-02*

就是看书，有些东西要去除，发现不能删除或更改，建议还是更新一下，毕竟是图书软件这些功能我感觉还是有必要的

**Developer response:** 你好，TXT文件支持全文替换
