### 1/5 — not good, not happy

*2020-07-14*

awful, do not use. Pearson ereader is a much better app, and even the stock apple books app performs better than this poorly coded ridiculously slow app

### 1/5 — T

*2020-05-21, version 5.3*

I no like

### 1/5 — Trash

*2020-05-11, version 5.3*

Super glitchy bad quality all round piece of garbage

### 1/5 — THE ABSOLUTE WORST

*2020-05-07*

This application and service is mandatory for all students at my school to have as we access almost all of our textbooks off of this. 

This is possibly the worst app I’ve ever used and it’s almost counter productive. You can not stay on a single page without it glitching or teleporting you to a completely different page. 
It is unbearable and one of the most frustrating things that you could ever use.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2020-04-28*

The overall usage of the app is very glitchy. You can’t zoom in on a specific spot, you can’t move pages without it glitching out. Can’t use it all the time and I have to use it in school and it is a complete nightmare. It overall was a horrible experience

### 1/5 — Terrible App- Worst UI- Disgusting

*2020-04-20*

Please fix everything.
Let us export into a PDF.
Whoever made this should delete it. Please improve the UI. It’s way to buggy.

### 1/5 — No one download this app

*2020-04-01, version 5.3*

This app is actually garbage, I wish I could give it a 0 star review. I can’t do anything on it.

### 1/5 — ‍

*2020-03-16, version 5.3*

The virtual embodiment of useless garbage

### 1/5 — Useless app - doesn’t work

*2020-03-15*

This app seems to be the only way I can access one of my school books (regrettably we purchased it from the recommended supplier— winc). As soon as I finish the confusing and unclear setup process I am greeted by a book that won’t open. Not to mention that it came a month after ordering. Terrible app and terrible company. Will be contacting my school, State MP and State education department.

EDIT: So now I’ve restarted the app to find that it’s logged me out and that it functions terribly once you manage to open a book.

### 1/5 — Appalling

*2020-03-11*

There are multiple issues with this app. It crashes often, the page numbers on the book are wrong (if you swipe to the next page, it says you have moved three pages), the bookmark function is useless, when you search for words it only shows one result even if the work appears multiple times. Not worth it.

### 1/5 — This app needs to be fixed now

*2020-02-26*

I am always being frustrated by the constant problems that this app has to offer. Every single time I try to zoom in to read the text, the app decides it would be a better idea to teleport to a random page in the whole book and make me read that instead. Then when I try get back to my original page, the app seems to get angry at me and present a white screen where I can not interact with the app anymore. This is extremely frustrating and must be fixed.

### 1/5 — Bs app

*2020-02-09, version 5.2*

This app is so trash,I don’t know why my school changed book suppliers, we should’ve stayed at campanion

### 1/5 — Many issues with OfficeMax eBooks

*2020-02-05*

Whoever created this app has not done a good and sufficient effort at creating this app. There are so many issues that I would want to list down but I might write this review in a different way. Point is that everything wrong about OMX just ruins it for everyone and when it’s ruined for everyone, there’s gonna be harsh reviews 😠👎🏻. Believe me or not, if you created an app, you don’t want harsh reviews about how trash your app is. Instead you make it great and make it stand out 🏆 And when your app is great, you get positive reviews 🙂👍🏻. And when your app has positive reviews, the star rating will certainly be up high ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

To my conclusion, I believe that OMX needs major improvements. And when those major improvements are set in place, we all can smile & use this app with very few or no issues hopefully 😀.

### 1/5 — Stuck in the 20th century

*2019-12-10*

This app is an example for all that can go wrong with monopoly power. Kids are forced to use it in order to access their school books, but the app can’t even get the very basics right: changing the password through the app rendered my entire account unusable. Not expecting a fix any time soon...

### 1/5 — Laggy pages

*2019-05-20*

If only I could rate this 0 stars as the pages take so long to load for something that should be offline

### 1/5 — ruined it

*2019-05-08*

this new update is terrible, its laggy, never know what page you are on and it never loads.
Also crashes a lot.

### 1/5 — Please answer!!

*2019-02-06, version 4.0*

This app is great but there is no split screen with other apps!
Please please please update this I’m begging

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very buggy

*2024-06-13, version 5.5*

Bad

### 1/5 — actually aids

*2022-02-16, version 5.5*

I swear the devs put effort into making the app as bad as they could

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2021-10-20*

Utterly useless app, never loads easily and glitches often

### 1/5 — Poo

*2021-06-05, version 5.5*

Someone needs to be arrested for this app

### 1/5 — Faulty

*2021-05-16, version 5.5*

Fix your app.

### 1/5 — Frustrating and Difficult to use

*2021-04-18*

I use OMX eBooks daily for school and honestly it’s very irritating. Expect many bugs with your every input, frequent crashes, and much difficulty in doing things like navigating and downloading books, and signing in. Generally the books I use are very annoying to read and navigate, though that may just be because they were made with a physical copy in mind, and the ability to flip between the first and last page of the book without crashing.

### 1/5 — How can I give it a 1 star?

*2021-02-18, version 5.5*

So bad

### 1/5 — Horrible money hungry developers

*2021-01-14, version 5.5*

Just give a pdf

### 1/5 — Bad :/

*2020-10-27*

Why was I sentenced by the school system to use this poor app, zooming in makes the whole screen blue for at least 20 seconds and if it does zoom correctly, it also jumps at least 50 pages to either side. Again, if it loads at all.

### 1/5 — So little compatibility

*2020-08-02*

This app has been so unoptimised for all the books on it. It feels like a job to open this app each time I need to use it as it can take upwards of a few minutes to log back into the app each time. Zooming in on books with diagrams is extremely laggy and can often result in the app crashing or becoming unseeable and having to restart the app anyway. If I could rate this app 0 stars, I would.

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-02-20*

This is a great kindle emulator! It recreates the lag and the randomly skipping pages very well! Why are yall giving 1 stars?

### 4/5 — Ebooks no longer work

*2016-11-21*

The loading is now stuck and I cannot access them :(

*2018-11-14*
