### 5/5 — Thank you for this wonderful app!

*2020-10-26*

Great app! Really enjoy it! So many books can be found from different fields! What is the most important almost everything is for free!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2017-10-16*

Can sign up/in. Looks like nobody cares either. People have the same complaints 2yrs ago. DELETE!

### 1/5 — Ditto

*2015-08-05*

Can't complete sign-up.

### 1/5 — Can't sign up

*2015-07-08*

Check the Terms and Conditions box, can't sign up because I didn't accept the Terms and Conditions.  Actually read the Terms and Conditions (leaving the box checked) still can't sign up because I didn't accept the Terms and Conditions.  How do you accept the Terms and Conditions?  I just want to see what iShook is all about.  I only downloaded to receive tokens for a game.

### 1/5 — Can't sign up

*2015-07-07*

Would love to see what this app has to offer but I am unable to complete the sign up. Even though I checked the agree to terms and policies box, I keep getting a pop up stating I need to agree.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2015-04-18*

I would leave 0 stars, but it isn't an option.

### 1/5 — Not even worth it

*2015-04-11*

Sure, it's free but that doesn't mean anything.  It's probably free for a reason.  Don't be fooled by its solid logo, cause it's terrible.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-01-31*

Thanks for the update
