### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on newer phones

*2018-07-07*

This app doesn’t work as promised— it freezes while storing text pictures

### 2/5 — Started out great

*2018-04-22*

But after getting a new phone I can’t log into my account. Can’t do it with the Twitter or Facebook app link in. And it won’t even send me an email to reset my password. I had 2 accounts and can’t get into either. I really loved this app and the idea, but developers need to work on the bugs.

### 5/5 — Love text

*2016-02-08*

Love to read. Cool graphics and style in the cards too.

### 4/5 — Getting better!

*2016-01-19*

Thank you for bumping the width of the images to 1242px, what a nice update!

Previous review:
The pictures are small and blurry on an iPhone 5s (Who uses 640x640 anymore? Even Instagram uses 1080 now, c'mon) and are unbearably so on an iPhone 6s Plus. Since I take no enjoyment in looking at pixelated/ blurry pictures, I won't be using this app until they increase their size to at least 1080.

Also the app used to be quite fast, but is much slower now since the latest update.

### 3/5 — Great app but...

*2015-11-07*

It would be really great if you could make it so if when one were to post a quote they would have to specify what language it will be in and have it post in the appropriate folder coinciding with that particular. The main feed on the home page of the app has so many posts of quotes in different languages that it sometimes feels like there is so many more there that aren't in English due to having to scroll through so many of the others. It's making me almost feel like giving up on the app for feeling like there is a lack of relevant content for my language and that would be unfortunate if that was not the case and that I just needed to scroll through them longer to find ones I could actually read.

### 4/5 — Cool App; Research Potential?

*2015-10-26*

This is a cool app that makes the effort to go beyond mere OCR (which any of dozens of apps out there can do), That I like. 

It seems to be aiming at the wrong market though. Given that so much humanities and even social science text and research only exists in print, this would be a great tool for research. Linking to Facebook and Evernote is great. Direct links to research-oriented services like Diigo would be great. That’s what IFTTT is for I guess, but direct links are better.

### 5/5 — Freakin awesome

*2015-10-09*

Works great for tinder

### 5/5 — Great app for book lovers

*2015-10-07*

Finally a great fun way to share text from actual books online. Looking forward to its evolutions

### 5/5 — Neat little quote repository

*2015-10-01*

This little app lets you take screenshots from your computer to books and magazines and creates a handy repository for you to archive and share. Cool!
