Navigate eReader User Reviews

Top reviews

Its ok

The pictures show that you should be able to write notes in the ereader book but I cannot figure out how to do that. It does not give me options to do that so it really makes it frustrating. It is nice to be able to take the book with me but I really need to make notations and highlights.

Lame

It doesn’t open 99% of the time. When logging it states problem with server.

You need the 2.0 version

This app is useless. It should just be deleted because you need the new version to do anything.

Crap

This app is horrible. It never works

Can’t Even Login

You can’t even log into the app to read your books. It keeps saying login is incorrect even though the desktop version is fine. Can JBL make a decent app?

CRIMINAL BUSINESS ACTIVITY!

Two of my Navigate and Navigate 2 subscriptions expired, renewed the services costing over $1500 and nothing opens or works.
Yet the financial transactions no hiccups.

In my opinion this constitutes FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY.
No workarounds on their website or general IT advice.

NOT HAPPY.

No me deja descargar

No descarga la app en ipad 4 iOS 10.3.3

Always a Hassle

So you have the reader AND the app, which is redundant. I was able to get one out of two books onto the reader. App keeps telling me that my sign-in info is incorrect but same info works on desktop browser. The highlighter is terrible. I always get an error code when I open the app, but then it works so I can read the one book. Constantly have to minimize the size before turning the page. But, I can read the one book without lugging it around, so there’s that. And I like that I can tap on some terms for glossary definition. And I do like that it opens right up to where I stopped.

The forgotten app?

Considering the newest updates on jb learning’s textbooks frequently refer students to this app, the app itself is utterly useless and disappointing. Too bad. A functional app would be a great aid for many students.

Great eReader, not great for highlighting or notes.

This app I have been using as part of my degree. This is a great reader for books, much better than others that I have tried as it loads the pages as they would be in the book.

It has a lots of resources included with it such as: questions and exams that can test your knowledge.

The note taking interface part offers highlighting, voice memos and notes that can be added directly into the page. This concept is great! But there is still room for it to be improved, the tool is a little bit disjointed. Could be improved by having a side tab that allows you to quickly change between functions, colours etc.

I have been using this with the Apple Pencil and have that it just a glorified stylus on this app. Similar apps detect the difference between your finger and the pencil. To include this fracture would greatly improve the app for these users.

Overall the app is a great eReader, but the notes part of it needs a little bit of work.

NOT WORTH IT. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME.

There is no audio version of the ebook I purchased. (The audio is available with some titles). I set my iPhone to read highlighted text to me so I could listen while I worked. Well, the app won’t let you highlight text with anything but their in-app highlighter. “Clunky” and “unrefined” were apt descriptions of this app.

App malfunctions

Serious problems with the app shutting down while using it. Please address this issue because it’s time consuming to restart the app when I’m trying to get reading done.

Not impressed

Had trouble downloading material to the app, tech support is closed, website not allowing login do to an unknown error. Trying to read for a promotion and can’t access the material I paid for.

Horrible

Way too much screen Realestate dedicated to controls. Bottom controls cover the bottom of the page, forcing a reader to pull the page up as to read the last lines. Blue controls are very hard on the eyes. It’s like this apps creator hates learning and wants to make it as hard as possible...

Login is broken

I never write a review but I would love to be able to use this app to take note with my IPad. Refuses to take my login credentials even thought I can access it fine from my pc. I’m using this for my virology class this semester. Please fix this!!!

For info I get an alert saying my username or password is incorrect and if I haven’t logged in before to log in on the website

HORRIBLE!

I need to use my online textbook and can’t even do that. I spent $480 on something that I can’t even use properly!!!! Every time I open the app it says no internet. UPDATE THE APP SO PEOPLE CAN ACTUALLY USE IT

Completely unusable

If I have to pay for this content I should be able to use it... this app is completely unusable. Considering the cost of content the least you could do is hire adequate coders to create an adequate platform to view your electronic content. Highlighting is cumbersome. Viewing and page turning lags. Duel screens on iPad Pro is not an option.

No audio

At least their web site has audio. Both freeze up and become unresponsive.
It is handy to download an entire gigantic book for traveling and not have to carry along a brick.
