User reviews

Marving Classic is Excellent

Marvin classic is an excellent ereader. Far better than the top ereaders.

Oops, Code=400

I downloaded the free version onto my iPhone to read an ebook in Dropbox. When I connect to Dropbox, I get an โ€œOopsโ€ with a code 400. I canโ€™t find anyplace to report errors.

Dont bother

This app is severely crippled. you can only see the first book in your "library".

Stupid way to force buying

I was using the free version and now you losers remove all my books from the library and I need to delete a book to read another?!!! Well, this gets thrown in the rubbish bin where it belongs, other ebook apps out there.

Highlighting is painful

Why highlighting is so hard? Everything else is awesome. The reading experience is by far the best in the market. However, for those who love highlighting, it is really painful. Please, fix that just copying iBooks. Then, you would be 5 star. Otherwise, unfortunately, I need to use another app.
