Can’t read Kindle books
I am looking for an app that can read Kindle books!
Crashes when I import a pdf file from G-drive.
The app closes immediately as soon as I try to open a file that I imported from my google drive
So sad!
The app cash opening a pdf, I did try reinstalling, resetting the iPhone... nothing work
Good app but needs improvement
I use this app to read pdf files. I like it but...
Please, please give it landscape mode. 99% of the apps I use are in landscape mode and can switch to other mode. This is a must have!
Please allow access to the voices and pronunciations already set on iPad settings. I use it a lot and have spent a lot of time to refine the pronunciations. Now your app wants to users own. Wouldn’t it be easier to tie into what’s already set on the iPad?
Thanks.

OMG!!!
$4.99 for just the app....
& separate purchase if you want it to actually read to you.... English must be purchased $4.99 and all other languages are separate charges..
Run your business right then maybe you'll get some business. This should be the best out there...will be calling apple for this fraud business and get my money back...

Solid app
I really like this app for the simplicity and practicality . In my case was always stable w minimum crashes. So it's not the magic that is very convenient way to get a review on any book
Very unhappy
The voice was terrible and distracting. I am quite upset I paid almost ten dollars. I did not understand I would have to pay an extra 4.99 for each additional language I wanted to hear, nor did I realize it would be a terrible glitchy distraction of a voice. Unless they fix that, don't lose your money like I did. Totally upset I lost 10$ on this thing. Developers, I hope your goal was to be a scam, otherwise you failed.

Worth it
I'm on the go a lot and this app helps me to enjoy my reading addiction wherever I am. Once you get used to some of the strange ways the app reads some words it's just like any other book on CD. However, now I can have ANY book I like in audible form for way less than the Audible app.

This AP stinks can't understand a word they say I switched it to Italian and it must be an Italian language they must have invented like a mix of Spanish Portuguese etc I would like my money back for the Ap and the Italian conversion of the book $4.99 + $4.99.
Also it looks that I can only pick from the selection they give you. NO GOOD.

Nice update - so close to having it all
This is a great app. I think you could really turn this onto a huge success. There are a lot of people out there would love to read and listen to an ePub book all in one place. This app comes very close, but there are still a few key features missing.
1. I can't start and stop the reading with the pause button on my earphones. This really makes it hard to use this app in a real world situation where interruptions occur.
2. Many of the epubs I import think that I need to purchase the German AIP even though they are in English.
3. You cannot adjust the brightness of the screen from within the app. You can't really read without that feature.
Keep up the good work!

Does what it's supposed to do
I've had no problem having it read my own e-books. I don't know why other people were having so many issues, perhaps I'm just lucky. The voice synthesis is not as good as Siri, but I can't be bothered doing that silly select text trick to make her read through the accessibility menu. If there is a picture of a page or any artwork in the e-book then it will not read that part and the voiceover will stop. You'll have to start again manually on the next page. However the bookmarks function is quite handy and works well. Additional languages and voices are really overpriced, they cost as much as the app does. All in all it's what I wanted - an app to make my eBooks audiobooks for my daily commute.

Hope it improves
Speech is sloppy at times. I like to read sometimes and have it read to me other times (while commuting). You can't manually turn the page BACK. Not worth the $. Hopefully there will be upgrade soon.
Good app for learning English reading fast
Thank to your great work .... I know it's hard to make app like this
I also have your vbookz PDF reader and it's fantastic
I hope that app get better and better
Namaste

Really Good App
I really love this app. The voice synthesis could be a little better but, it's still a really good app. I look forward to the improvements in future updates.
Awesome app!
It does everything I had hoped, makes my commute enjoyable... The only improvements I would like to see is place in book syncing across multiple devices... And if there was a way to upload to directly from the iBooks app this would be the best app ever! Very Good Job by the developer!
Awesome
I love it!! I have read at least 10 books a month if not more since I bought this program I love it so much. My toddler will sit in my lap and watch my iPhone while it reads.. And my toddler will not sit still for anything. I also have to hold him to put him to sleep at night and he listens and falls asleep within minutes

Very disappointed in app
I bought this specifically to be able to listen (from my iPad 3) to 'my' ebooks (ePub) while I'm at my desk or driving. I don't use Dropbox nor while I download it to use with this $4.99 app.
I followed the directions per vbookz website for saving an ePub converting it to text then converting back to ePub with success. While that was a bit interesting in itself I could not upload the saved ePub back to vbookz.
This was a complete waste of money for me. I hope the other buyers have better success than I did.

Why not continue playback while locked?
The current version does seem to have resolved the issues of importing your own files, but playback immediately ceases if you lock your device or exit the app. As a primarily audio-based app, it would be ideal for on-the-go listening, but the inability to lock the touchscreen while playing severely limits it's usefulness in such situations.

This book reading at is awesome
I love this app this app should be for anyone who likes books I can't really read all that well but I can't spell at all but this app rules I'm giving it five star and plus it's an awesome app just to kick back relax and listen to the story
I love it
It uses pretty good TTS voices, they don't get everything perfect, but thats ok. I like that you can import from Dropbox, and so far I have had no problems importing my own books in ePub format. one bit of advice I will give, when you want to exit vBookz, press the button in the upper left to go back to your bookshelf so it put the bookmark back in to save your progress.
