### 1/5 — 看了很多广告攒时长结果还是一直跳出爱阅点用完，不是逼人消费吗

*2026-06-17, version 5.1.0*

啊

### 5/5 — 目前广告多的让人反感

*2026-05-29*

广告烦人

**Developer response:** 收到，已经记录，我会尽快解决的。（等待几分钟期间，是否打开过其它音频App？电话？若可能，请在App关于中找到我，与我联系）感谢您的反馈及五星支持。祝生活愉快。

### 5/5 — 會員錯誤

*2026-05-02, version 5.0.0*

購買了終身 重開後就跳掉了 回覆也錯誤 重新購買一樣錯誤 完全不能用語音讀書 已經一週了 有問題可以講清楚嗎

### 3/5 — 强制报废老版本没必要吧

*2026-04-16*

已经发送邮件给你了，请注意查收

**Developer response:** 曾经有那么个BUG，但早已修复，实在不明白你到底遇到了什么问题。

### 5/5 — Suggestion for the iOS App (iCloud Sync Improvement)

*2026-03-06*

I’d like to suggest an improvement to the iCloud sync feature.

Currently, once books are successfully synced to iCloud under one Apple ID, the app marks them as “already synced.” If the user later switches to a different Apple ID, those books cannot sync to the new account because the app still considers them already synchronized.

For users with many books, manually re-syncing them one by one is very inconvenient.

It would be helpful to add an option like “Reset Sync Status” or “Mark All Books as Not Synced”, so all books can be synced again when switching to a new Apple ID. This would greatly improve usability.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. I will add these features in future updates. Have a nice day.

### 1/5 — 纯搞笑

*2026-02-14, version 4.5.0*

爱阅书香秽土转生的“本地阅读器”，恶心，搞笑，断网后全都看不了，我要是能联网我用本地阅读器干什么？本地阅读器强制联网干什么？！

### 5/5 — 反應的問題作者會修正

*2026-02-02, version 4.5.0*

原本未連網就不能讀取本地書檔的問題解決了，總算在飛航模式下也能看/聽書了，感謝作者會關注評論並修復問題，沒有擺爛，立馬給五星。

### 5/5 — 很好的阅读app

*2026-01-18, version 4.4.0*

感觉是自定义功能最多的一个阅读软件，挺方便的，就是更新后必须得联网才能用有些麻烦，章节的数字识别有时会出问题改正则也不好使，但瑕不掩瑜，还是很喜欢这个软件

### 5/5 — 哈哈

*2026-01-12*

好用

**Developer response:** 不断努力，只为您的点赞。感谢您的五星支持，祝生活愉快。

### 1/5 — 现在激励弹框有点频繁的

*2025-12-26*

现在激励弹框有点频繁的

**Developer response:** 非常可惜，您提到的问题我无法重现，另外爱阅记的语音库是itts。若您能给我来信说明BUG，提供iOS版本，操作顺序，对应的JSON文件，或者我能很快解决问题。而三星的评价，嗯，确实难过
