### 5/5 — A great way to experience the masters of horror

*2023-12-02*

Love the immersive experience of these stories. Sitting with headphones on, listening to the background music of each story, as I read and flip the pages has brought a new experience to these well loved classic tales. If you love Poe, this is an awesome way to give a bit of life to the stories. I’ve been reading them for years now within the app, and it just doesn’t get old. I just wish the developers would bring some other horror classics to the iclassic collection.

### 5/5 — Beautifully dark and creepy

*2023-06-27*

Absolutely fun and deliciously horrific

### 1/5 — After all these years, still no landscape mode for iPad

*2022-03-30*

The developer refuses to implement what would be such a welcome feature for all of their iClassics apps. We desperately need landscape mode for iPad and iPad Pro. 

Yet the developer refuses. There were never any apps that could do as much good in landscape mode as these could. Yet "one way portrait mode "is the only option on an iPad.

### 5/5 — Amazing timing in all of the stories!

*2022-03-25*

You should always tap the screen in several places.  Sometimes the surprises will make you jump out of your chair. Bravo.

### 5/5 — Absolutely worth purchasing.

*2020-05-24*

I hope you keep bringing good interactive books. It’s been an amazing experience reading. Thanks for bringing the works of Poe to life. ありがとう.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2020-03-25*

A book will be nice 😬❤️

**Developer response:** Yes, our apologies for the delay. iPoe Vol. 1 &  3 works! and the iLovecraft Vol.1 and 2 Fixed too!!! We are working to fix other iClassics apps.. Our apologies,

### 5/5 — Finally!!!

*2020-02-13*

I’m so excited for the updates to Volumes 1 and 3!! Can’t wait until Volume 2 is fixed!!

### 5/5 — Want more

*2020-01-24*

It’s not working after I download it?!?

**Developer response:** Yes, our apologies for the delay. iPoe Vol. 1 &  3 works! and the iLovecraft Vol.1 and 2 Fixed too!!! We are working to fix other iClassics apps.. Our apologies,

### 1/5 — Don’t buy any of their products

*2020-01-23, version 3.8.1*

Don’t buy any of their products; they no longer work and they offer zero support!

### 1/5 — Suspicious

*2020-01-12*

These books are entertaining and well done, but unfortunately I have to give them a low rating due to the apps suspicious behavior. I have purchased all of the iclassics and found that they all immediately default to the 'on' position in cellular data and immediately use nearly a megabyte of data. Why a book would need to use any data at all is curious and that they use that much data is both odd and suspicious. I wrote to the company at the email posted on their website but received no response. I cannot recommend purchasing these books unless they stop this practice of sending whatever data they're gathering and using customers cellular data without permission.

**Developer response:** Hi, we just released an update. Now the app works correctly. Regarding the data, we do not use data, we do not even ask for the email or name. Payment apps do not use any type of advertising. We are a small startup and we are trying to monetize the apps with just the payment per download. Our apologies for the delay to reply.
