## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Ebook is pathetic

*2026-06-25*

Unscrollable. Bugs. Continuous jumping up and down of pages

### 1/5 — App not opening

*2026-05-18*

Whenever I try to launch app it shows new version available but my app is up to date.

### 1/5 — Updates not working

*2026-05-18*

iPad version isn’t working. The updates aren’t working. It is redirecting from App Store to the app and then from app to App Store.

### 1/5 — App update error

*2026-05-17*

I just installed the app but whenever I try to open the app it always say update the app

### 1/5 — Making Fool

*2026-02-18*

I purchased a book and saw QR and the book has referal code so i downloaded this App,
& it’s not Login me up

### 1/5 — Dont buy books from here, better do offline save valuable time

*2026-02-04*

This app is unbelievably terrible. It crashes randomly, shuts down without warning, and takes an eternity just to open. Even simple actions lag or don’t register at all. The interface feels poorly designed, features barely work, and updates seem to make things worse instead of better. It drains battery, wastes data, and tests your patience every single time you try to use it. Clearly rushed, badly optimized, and never properly tested. Using this app feels like fighting the software rather than being helped by it. Absolutely unreliable, frustrating, and a complete waste of storage space. Uninstalling is the best feature it offers.

### 1/5 — Ebook loading every time

*2026-01-16*

Very slow. Takes forever to open the epub book. And it does that every time I try to open the book, even doesn't save the data after multiple opening

### 1/5 — Frustrating and Unusable Reading Experience

*2025-10-25*

I really want to like this app, but the built-in e-book reader is almost unusable due to major bugs.
The biggest issue is the navigation. If you set the page to "scrolling" mode, the app becomes uncontrollable. Simply touching anywhere on the screen can cause the page to suddenly jump to the next chapter or a completely random, distant page, making it impossible to read continuously.
I thought switching to "paginated" mode would fix it, but that mode is also unstable and buggy.
On top of that, the highlighting feature is broken. I'll highlight an important piece of text, navigate a few pages away, and when I come back, the highlight has randomly moved to a completely different part of the page. This makes studying or taking notes impossible.

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2025-09-10*

What a pathetic app can’t even read 2 pages continuously…the pages skips automatically ….worst experience

### 2/5 — Issue on opening the application

*2026-05-18*

I have downloaded the application since yesterday, it keeps on showing a msg that states there is an update available please update!! But there is no update available on the store! Please look into the matter!

*2026-01-27*

The ebook opened a couple of times for me then i started post that no matter what i tried (even reinstalled) but nothing works

When i tried adding description to a bookmark the app got stuck on a blank page and hanged

Major bugs especially the one where you cant open the ebook which was the only reason i got this app

### 4/5 — Play in background is missing

*2025-09-07*

App is nice, videos lecture are also great, it could be better if background play is enabled. Need it most to listen the videos multiples times.

Whenever I open the app, it shows that there is an update to be downloaded. But when I open the App Store, it doesn’t show any updates.
