I can’t describe how much this app has helped my work as an academic who suffers from attention difficulties. But it is quite surprising that some essential improvements haven’t been made yet. I don’t get why it’s so easy to read smoothly a word that is divided between two lines, but not two pages! I can’t see why the app doesn’t recognise simple things like “[t]he” as just “the”. I also wish there was a tool to add specific words or proper names from particular disciplines that are regularly mis-pronounced; the name of my discipline, which appears in 70% of what I read, is always mispronounced. The summary and chat tools are fantastic, as is the podcast tool. But it baffles me that there’s no way to control the length of the podcast (when the equivalent option is available on the summary tool!). The recent update has removed the option to tap on “+” and “-“ to zoom in and out, and it’s more difficult to see the time it would take to read the full document. Why?
I rarely write reviews but this app has been SO helpful as well as quite frustrating, I had to write one!
