لدي ملفات كثيرة في جهازي ولكن عندما اريد ان أقرأها في التطبيق لا  تعمل وتظهر لي خطا في الملف

### 2/5 — 😭😭😭

*2025-12-24, version 3.61*

Do I need to buy the membership, just to read the books?😭

### 3/5 — Cool idea

*2025-11-27, version 3.60*

I love the idea of it. But I won’t use it until it has a lifetime option. I hate subscriptions.

### 4/5 — Just starting

*2025-10-19, version 3.57*

Looks easy and user friendly, hope the free content is enjoyable

### 5/5 — Costo

*2025-09-23, version 3.56*

Disculpen cuánto cobran la app esta en dólares o pesos mexicanos

### 5/5 — Missing scroll

*2025-09-15, version 3.55*

Please bring scroll feature.

### 5/5 — LOVE IT!

*2025-09-01, version 3.53*

I JUST STARTED AND I ALREADY FEEL LIKE A BETTER READER

### 5/5 — Güzel ama pahalı

*2025-08-28, version 3.53*

Mükemmel, vadettiklerini karşılayan bir uygulama. Ama bana pahalı geldiği için deneme sürümünden sonra devam edeceğimden emin değilim.

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2025-07-21*

Honestly I wasn’t sure what to expect but Magibook is kind of blowing my mind. I’ve always wanted to read classics like The Count of Monte Cristo and Frankenstein but every time I tried, I’d give up halfway — the language just felt too dense or old-fashioned.

With this app though, I can actually follow along. I started with the “beginner” level and then bumped it up as I got more confident. It doesn’t feel dumbed down, it just feels more… readable? Like someone finally made books for people like me who didn’t grow up reading Shakespeare in school.

I’ve already finished 3 books this month which is honestly insane for me. I even started reading on the bus instead of scrolling TikTok lol.

There are a couple minor things I wish were better — like sometimes I wish it explained certain cultural references more clearly — but overall this is the first reading app that’s actually working for me.

### 5/5 — 🥸

*2025-07-02, version 3.48*

Can you add : tab on the edge of the screen to advance to next page please.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-06-27*

Although I have ADHD, I love to read but sadly due to my inability to focus for a very long time I had given up reading this app is amazing as it allows me to read any book and mostly classic books at my pace without stressing my eyes or feeling distracted, I wish this app would be available to students with learning difficulties as it will help them appreciate reading more.

### 5/5 — Just read my first book in years!! 🥹

*2025-06-21*

I was never a big reader until I found this app. I kept buying hard self-development books with hopes that they would help me build discipline, but I quit 3 pages in. I always thought that I was the problem, which diminished my confidence further. I stopped reading for a few years completely until I met my English teacher by accident. She recommended this app that she uses to help students with reading. It really helped!! Turns out my English was not as good as I thought, and those books were just not my level. I'm really thankful for this app as I just finished my first book IN YEARS! Can't recommend it enough!

### 5/5 — Download now!

*2025-06-20, version 3.47*

This books is so good, it helps you to improve your English speaking skills and enhance your vocabulary

### 4/5 — I don’t want to buy anything

*2025-06-15, version 3.45*

I don’t want to buy anything and I am stuck on the free trial page and I have it on my phone and there was a “x” in the corner on my phone and not my iPad

### 5/5 — Magical

*2025-06-11, version 3.45*

This application is simply magical for people who want to read tough literature at their own understanding of classic english 🙌🏻

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-06-08, version 3.45*

Helps me with my adhd

### 5/5 — The app

*2025-06-07, version 3.45*

So cool

### 1/5 — Finally a rival in quality to the work of Ea Nasir!

*2025-12-08*

Thank you for your contribution to the erasure (that means getting rid of) of literature (books), and in increasing (making more) of illiteracy (people who can’t read) in America! As we all know illiteracy has been increasing sharply in recent years, and your app is a fantastic contribution to helping ensure that these numbers only keep rising. In addition to the hard work you have done to help increase illiteracy, you are also doing so much to erase literature. By “dumbing down” great works, you remove so many layers of meaning from the texts as to render them almost completely different books. For example, in Moby Dick, the last sentence of paragraph one states that everyone harbors a desire to go sailing, if they only knew. However, in your wonderfully reduced version, you remove that pesky viewpoint, and just say that many others feel similarly. I really appreciate all this hard work you are doing, with any luck we can eradicate all human writers in the next 10 years! 
In honor of your accomplishments, I award you one star.

### 1/5 — Great idea but….

*2025-11-14, version 3.60*

Here are some of the words used in the lowest level version of the book, “The Life and Adventures of a Cat” - are you ready? INGENIOUS, INTERWOVEN, DIVERT, APT, CLOY, DEXTERITY. These are just from the two pages open in front of me. I’m not cherry picking. The next page? It has these words: “encreased,” that’s right, not even increased, and my favorite early elementary school vocabulary word, “TERRAQUEOUS!” Is this entire app a prank?????

### 1/5 — Recenzja

*2025-06-15, version 3.46*

Nie ma książek które chciałabym przeczytać, bardzo mały wybór.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-05-30, version 3.44*

I downloaded it just to read something and nothing was free. I tried most all of the books and they all said I had to pay so do not buy it.

### 1/5 — Can‘t even start without paying

*2025-05-04*

I donwloaded this App because I Like to read and it was advertised as an free App for reading . But before you can read you have to pay, wouldn‘t recomend this App. There Are way cheaper options

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for reaching out, this was not supposed to happen, we have 10 free books for offer. Please reach out to contact@magibook.co so we can further assist you!

### 1/5 — It was free

*2025-05-04, version 3.40*

But right now I need to pay because I upgraded the app

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE

*2025-04-21, version 3.38*

Ok so I downloaded this app to read one book for school, A Tale Of Two Cities. I bought the subscription, but less than a week after doing so, the app now never opens. So you’re telling me I spent money on an overpriced app and now you’re so cheap that you won’t even let me read the books I JUST PAID YOU FOR? NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT. do not download, and do not pay for the subscription.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-03-09, version 3.27*

You can only read 10 boring books for free you have to pay like $30 bucks for the rest it is horrible don’t download

### 1/5 — Make it free/ add books that people will actually read

*2025-02-05, version 3.16*

It’s not worth downloading if you can’t read anything interesting or have to pay to read a book. Nobody wants to read about “The Gettysburg Address” or anything by Thomas Paine

### 1/5 — Scam!

*2024-12-27*

These scammers promised a 14-day trial but ended up charging me for an entire year’s subscription!

**Developer response:** Hi kamilmaratovic,
It seems you may have accidentally selected our annual subscription without trial instead of the annual subscription with free trial option. We'd be happy to help with a refund of your purchase.
Please email us at contact@magibook.co and we'll process your refund right away.

### 5/5 — 안드로이드 버전 혹은 웹 버전이 필요합니다

*2026-01-10*

저는 현재 안드로이드 태블릿과 리눅스 랩탑을 가지고 있는데, 큰 화면으로 책을 읽고 싶지만 이 앱을 아이폰에서밖에 사용할 수 없기 때문에 그것이 불가능합니다. 앱이 무척 마음에 들어요. 가까운 시일 내에 안드로이드 서비스를 볼 수 있기를 기대합니다.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal app with great features

*2026-01-10*

Calling the app excellent is an understatement. Exceptional UX and features. Keep up the good work. Please add a tip option so that I can tip you guys.

### 5/5 — Intrigued by this app

### 5/5 — 👌🏻

*2025-11-11, version 3.60*

### 5/5 — Magical

*2025-10-11*

This application is simply magical for people who want to read tough literature at their own understanding of classic english 🙌🏻 . So much to explore within variety of genres and authors.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind words 😊 We will continue to improve the overall experience.

### 5/5 — How the app is going so far.

*2025-10-08*

Just from starting the app it asks for your reading level, what’s kinds of books to you like, and even shows some books to see which ones are you favorite or what your most interested in. I give this app a 5 stars and after 5 weeks of me using this app more my reviews is get better and better.
