### 1/5 — Useless on an iPad

*2024-01-29*

Not even worth the minimal cost

### 5/5 — Perfeito!

*2023-09-26*

O melhor app para destacar texto nas páginas da web e fazer comentários. O diferencial é que você pode também destacar em PDF on-line diretamente no site e fica salvo no app. Ainda pode importar seu PDF para o app. 👏👏👏

### 1/5 — This app is garbage

*2019-09-03*

I’m trying to use this app, because i’m attending college classes online, and my textbook is an ebook. I really wanted to use this app, to highlight important parts of the text, and the app doesn’t even work. Don’t bother downloading this, you will just be wasting your time

### 3/5 — Bugs need fixing - but quite good

*2018-12-27*

It’s got great minimalist features, but is suffering from a few teething troubles:

Bugs:

(1) things don’t sync between devices if you haven’t created folders

(2) text in reader font can’t be adjusted - I get small font all the time.

(3) deleting a paper seems temporary - it comes back again..

Mods needed:

(1) a more obvious new folder creation option ( it took me ages to find how to create a folder)

(2) consistent stable operation without folders

**Developer response:** 1,2,3 are fixed now.

### 5/5 — Keeps Getting Better

*2018-11-22*

I have been using this app for years. There’s a small learning curve, but once you understand how it works you’ve got a powerful tool for highlighting text and making notes on articles published to web pages. I have gotten great support when I ran into problems, and recommend this app for anyone looking for a powerful online text highlighter. The latest updates are beautiful!

### 4/5 — Great assistance

*2018-04-12*

I had problems and sent them an email with the issue I did get a response, however, and problem resolved. Probably my learning curve.

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2018-02-04*

Needs cloud support,  move along nothing to see here

**Developer response:** RePaper works with iCloud but of course you need to turn ON iCloud on your device. It stores everything on local storage otherwise.

### 5/5 — Best app for highlighting text in web pages and PDF files

*2017-08-18, version 2.8*

Easy to use and comprehensive. Bookmarks and Folders make organization of articles a snap. Tech support is responsive to questions not covered by the video or list of FAQ. I tried two other apps before finding this one, but this was the only one that met all my text-highlighting needs.

### 1/5 — Still doesn't work. Tutorial video gives code 404 message.

*2016-09-16*

Waste of my time and money.

### 1/5 — It does not work!

*2016-01-16*

Just bought it and it doesn't work. Instruction video is missing, link broken. Interface is not intuitive.
