### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-03-29, version 2.6*

No highliting available on iPad

### 1/5 — No dark mode is a dealbreaker

*2024-02-06*

As a reader app, dark mode is quite essential. The lack of dark mode makes this app unusable especially at night.

### 1/5 — Would give 0 stars if I could.

*2023-11-17, version 2.6*

Cannot use highlight option on ipad. 2 years since the last update was made on this app no wonder it’s almost pretty much useless. For a textbook app geared towards student, having a fully functional app that can highlight should be the bare minimum. Would give 0 stars if I could.

### 1/5 — App not kept up to date

*2023-01-21, version 2.6*

The eTexts provided by our school uses this app, but the developers abandoned it. They don’t update the app (last was 2yrs ago), hence it’s not optimised to function smoothly when there’s a new iPadOS update. Some features can’t be utilised anymore. We’ll ask the school to switch to a different reader app. Texidium has become pretty much useless. It’s frustrating.

### 1/5 — please add more edtiton option！

*2022-09-15, version 2.6*

I use one book for several courses, so I need to “bookmark” separate different chapters for each courses , but the bookmark icon can only marked on that page without any comments on it！its hard for students to remember which chapter is for which course!

### 1/5 — Need to improve your app

*2022-05-15, version 2.6*

Very hard to read from this app

### 2/5 — Poor search results

*2022-03-09, version 2.6*

When searching for a word, the app brings you to the beginning of the chapter rather than going to the exact location on the page where the word is located.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2021-06-06, version 2.6*

Never works. Takes six years to load when trying to read. Garbage

### 1/5 — No good

*2020-12-16, version 2.6*

This app has given me trouble from the start. It’s has never allowed me to highlight properly! This is a big no when I am studying and doing readings for school. It makes the readings essentially useless. Despite trying every recommendation at that technical support has given me I have had no luck fixing the issue. I have reached out to customer service countless times over the last four months and there’s never been any action taken. I would never recommend this app I wish my school didn’t use it.

### 1/5 — Not flexible for note taking

*2020-09-09, version 2.5.2*

The program is too rigid. Not user friendly.  C/P for word notes is a 7 step process. Also,
It doesn’t allow my e-pen to write or draw on the pages

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2020-04-07, version 2.5.2*

I can’t log in. I did all the steps and I won’t still let me login. I don’t know what to do!

### 2/5 — Unresponsive app

*2020-02-17, version 2.5.2*

After last update i am not able to use this app fluently. Highlights and word search  options are glitching up and down!!!! You have made this app worse and now i am losing my interest in this app. Learn some features from kindle. User friendly app.

### 1/5 — Awful app

*2019-10-04, version 2.5.1*

The app always skips back to the start of the chapter when I’m reading. Multiple times I have to move it forwards again. It’s so disruptive I can hardly read my textbooks. The app won’t let me highlight things either, thus I can’t copy and paste either. Can’t believe I wasted so much money on books I can’t even use.

### 1/5 — Ayuda, problema.

*2019-09-19, version 2.5.1*

Me pide correo electrónico y contraseña ¿cómo puedo darlo de alta o cual correo es?

### 1/5 — Horrible horrible app

*2019-04-11, version 2.5*

The app cuts off pages and has awful navigation that always seems to lose what page you’re on.

### 1/5 — Prisoner to this app

*2019-03-16, version 2.4*

Please you have to fix text selection. It is impossible to select text for copying or highlighting.

### 1/5 — No dark mode is a dealbreaker

*2025-06-21, version 2.6*

Give us options to select or change the voices for the audio. 

For a reader app, dark mode is quite essential. The lack of dark mode makes this app unusable especially at night.

The last update for this app was 4 years ago.

### 1/5 — Highlight text option

*2025-05-06, version 2.6*

It’s an amazing app, but just because the option to highlight doesn’t work I give it a 1*. It looks like there’s no plan to fix it any time soon.. I mean last update was 2 years go which is really frustrating.

### 1/5 — Still can’t highlight and write notes on iPad in 2025

*2025-02-08, version 2.6*

Such waste that I can't even highlight or write notes through my iPad. I'm so looking forward to studying on the go but seems like this ain’t gonna work

### 1/5 — Please fix the highlight and notes functions

*2024-09-14, version 2.6*

They are like half the point of the app! Otherwise it’s just a basic e-reader.

### 1/5 — cannot use highlight

### 1/5 — Cannot highlight and write notes on iPad

### 5/5 — I really love this app

*2022-12-22, version 2.6*

It’s much easier to read my texts on the iPad than using the web site.  Scrolling is more natural.  Since I tend to read for a least an hour at a time, it’s nice to be comfortable and not need the laptop.

The fact that I can download the text for offline reading is a huge bonus!  It also means that if the website is ever unavailable, I can still read.

The bookmarks and progress are saved in the cloud, just like Kindle, so when you switch to the app, you don’t lose anything.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2018-10-10, version 2.2.1*

Very intuitive and user friendly. Textbook graphs and pictures look very nice in the app.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2018-09-25, version 2.2.1*

This app is actually really useful I don’t know why it only had two stars. Having my textbooks in my pocket is so convenient. App is clean and smooth. Text scales to your screen perfectly.

### 5/5 — Definitely!

*2018-06-03, version 2.1*

Worth it!

### 4/5 — Dark/ Night Mode?

*2025-10-13, version 2.6*

How do I use DARK/ NIGHT MODE for reading my books?

The white background feels too bright at times.

Thank you

### 4/5 — Great app! But..

*2018-01-17, version 2.0.2*

Love the app! Have it on my laptop as well.. but the read aloud feature isn’t working properly. It starts reading the text from the very beginning and doesn’t let you decide where to start reading from. The laptop top app does though. I think this feature will be an amazing tool students can utilize! Please fix and update 🙏🏼

### 4/5 — Getting better

*2015-12-22, version 1.4.85*

Great update. There are still no books' covers though. Please fix the covers for 5 stars.

### 3/5 — Can not highlight on iOS

*2025-11-25, version 2.6*

I have tried everything and I can not highlight the words in the textbook.

### 3/5 — cannot use highlight function in iPad

cannot use highlight function in iPad

### 3/5 — Text books won't open on iPad

*2016-01-17, version 1.4.85*

I can't open any of my books on the iPad. My iPhone opens them just fine.
