User reviews

Une arnaque

Le concept semble super, mais malheureusement j’ai acheté un livre et je ne peux pas l’ouvrir ni même contacter le support

Good idea but need improvement

Great idea for an app the help those trying to improve their French, but the English translations are not perfect and read like they have been put through google translate

Cool app

Traductions are great! It's really cool to discover books in there original language with the comfort of English to fully understand everything if needed!

Génial

Vraiment super pour apprendre les mots dans leur contexte, au rythme de la lecture. Je pense que c'est parfait pour les débutants, mais je l'utilise pour augmenter mon vocabulaire.

Really enjoyed it

I love the reading experience, definitely help me to improve my french reading skill and vocabulary. Would love to see more books available in the future. I'm on my first book so far and considering a second book. So far it works well. I'm looking forward for more functionality to be added in! Will recommend this to my classmate.
