Developers done a wonderful thing with this app! Let’s hope further editions for classic authors are developed. Andreas Divus’ Latin translation of Homer? Further apps for the likes of Virgil or Ovid? ### 5/5 — Pavch17 *2020-08-23, version 4.0.2* Εξαιρετικό, συνεχίστε και με άλλα έργα! ### 1/5 — Distracted By Ads *2015-01-17, version 3.1.1* This would be a better app if the Ads were not included. Immediately I am distracted from the text. And worst of all, their use illustrates a tital lack of respect for the work, the artists and the genre. One star is too much. ### 5/5 — Καταπληκτική! *2014-04-05, version 3.0.3* Εχω την δωρεαν έκδοση αλλα ειναι πολυ καλη και μου δίνει την ευκαιρία να διαβάσω όμηρο όπου καν αν βρίσκομαι. Θα ήθελα να μεγαλώνει η γραμματοσειρά. ### 5/5 — Γαματο!!! :) *2014-01-30, version 3.0.2* Πολλή καλό... ### 1/5 — Not very useful *2013-11-02, version 3.0.2* I got this to study the Ancient Greek version, so that's the only part I'm reviewing. This is woefully incomplete. Even very basic features are lacking, such as: * searching; * translation lookup; * interlinear translation; * highlighting/notes; * rapid navigation within a book--it takes a lot of scrolling to get to line 800, for example. Until this app becomes something more than a simple scrape of data from more suitable Web sites, it doesn't deserve more than one star. ### 4/5 — Εναλλαγή κειμένων *2013-10-04, version 3.0* Για να γίνει πιο προσιτό, καλό θα ήταν να μπορούσες με ένα tab όταν διαβάζεις το αρχαίο κείμενο να σε παραπέμπει στο ίδιο σημείο στην μετάφραση ή στο αγγλικό κείμενο. Κατά τ' άλλα είναι εξαιρετικό. ### 5/5 — Εξαίρετη Εφαρμογή *2013-02-15, version 2.0* Πολύ καλή η προσπάθεια σου Περικλή, συγχαρητήρια. Μια παράκληση μόνο, δεν ξέρω αν και κατα το πόσο είναι εφικτή η προσαρμογή της εφαρμογής στην οθόνη 4ων ιντσών του καινούριου μοντέλου της Apple iPhone 5. Ευχαριστώ εκ των προτέρων και καλή συνέχεια σου εύχομαι. ### 5/5 — Συγχαρητήρια *2012-11-30, version 2.0* Καταπληκτική δουλειά και πολύ όμορφη εφαρμογή για μικρούς και μεγάλους! ## Frequently asked questions about Homer Works (Ομήρου Έπη) ### What ancient Greek texts are available in Homer Works?
