Really cool

Nice way to learn about and study Shakespeare’s work— the cost is about the cost of one book!

An absolute lifesaver for English class!

I’ve always struggled with Shakespeare’s language, but this app makes it so much easier to digest. Hearing the audio combined with the simplified breakdowns helps me actually understand the plot and characters. Highly recommend to any student!

Can’t bypass ads

The ads are ridiculously long, and the app is not allowing me to purchase the premium version that would eliminate the ads. I’ve tried to buy the complete collection, but it reverted to the ads. So I tried to purchase one play without ads, but it reverted to the ads again. This is a time waster.

I’m a Shakespeare fan…

I am a Shakespeare fan and I was looking for an app exactly like this one. There are lots of choices for you to view and it helps you to understand thy Shakespeare literature. The only thing is that you have to watch an ad to move on to the next act and it doesn’t save where you were at otherwise 100% you should definitely get this app!

Robbed.

I purchased to read “Julius Caesar” ad free. But it’s still showing ads.

Ads are unbearable. Impossible to study!

The ads are unfortunately unbearable. You have to watch an ad after every scene or every other scene. I'm actually trying to study for a test and I don't need all of these distractions.

There is supposed to be an in-app purchase, but for the life of me, I cannot find it. Would have gladly paid for it, but now I'm going to go to another app that doesn't have all of these ads - which are soooooooo long.
