It works!

Excellent app— it does exactly what it says it will. I second the request for an auto-scroll feature! Thank you developers for a great app!

Have Been Using for Almost a Year, Only Rare Issues Quickly Resolved

Most of my reviews are for apps I’ve used for a long time (at least a year) and strongly enjoyed. This review is no exception.

I wasn’t sure when I bought it if it would have the same constant bugs other Watch readers seemed prone to, but I have had no issues.

Occasionally, due to how simple the app itself is, it feels more like a user interface designed by a programmer without input from less-adept tech users, but once you understand the trick (it’s a learning curve of maybe five minutes at the most), it’s not an issue.

Plus, with how lightweight the app is, I really don’t have an issue with keeping the user interface simple to the point of being confusing on rare occasion.

My recommendation? If you want to read on your Apple Watch, get this. All .txt files go into the app without problems, sync works quickly, and using it on the Apple Watch is surprisingly intuitive. Well worth the money.

Thanks you for this app

Would like to say thanks for the app. Would appreciate if you could add autoscrolling option so I can read without having to touch the watch. Thanks! :)

Very useful app

Thanks for your idea and deed.

Great, very useful app.

I really like the app, the way to upload files to it via iCloud works great.
A couple of ideas for improvement - I like syncing a lot of small text files, and having a sync all button will be nice.
Also, an option to separate pages by paragraph (each paragraph has its own page) will be helpful.
