With the changing times wish their were more apps. like this one. ### 4/5 — It's cool *2012-09-10, version 2.2* They give you some free books. It's a little limited, but it's a free app!! Every time I would open a book it crashed too. I deleted the app and re-installed it and it works great. Thank you guys for this app!! ### 3/5 — Spirt mind and body mag is truly interesting *2012-09-01, version 2.2* Awsome thems therys and insightful ### 4/5 — 👍 *2012-08-14, version 2.2* Very good😄 ### 4/5 — Stormy1 *2012-07-30, version 2.1* I very much enjoy this app. So much to learn!! : ) ### 4/5 — Great prices *2012-07-12, version 2.1* They had the book I was looking for at a great price. Only problem for me was the lack of page numbers which makes referencing difficult. ### 3/5 — Starfem🌃 *2012-07-12, version 2.1* Now that the magazine section has been fixed I think it's pretty good and it's nice to have the video links. ### 4/5 — Awesome content *2012-06-27, version 2.0* I love the Spiritual selection all in one place... But it is driving me crazy that I can't bookmark! I spend at least 5 mins flipping back to where I was in a book. Otherwise, perfect! ### 4/5 — Great app! *2012-05-30, version 2.0* Love this app, and I'm psyched by the update. Still a few bugs, the bookmarks have stopped working again since the most recent update, and after I download the magazines nothing happens so I can't read them, it just downloads again. Unless theres a trick I don't know about... Still, the videos are a sweet addition. Hope the bugs get fixes next time! ### 5/5 — Ninja *2011-12-28, version 1.0* Ninja ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Broken? *2013-01-09, version 2.4* I've deleted and reinstalled 5 times now and it still crashes. It gets stuck every time I try to download a magazine. ### 1/5 — very disappointed *2012-11-29, version 2.4* I am totally blind and use VoiceOver to use the apps on the phone. I buy and read books from the Apple store with no problem. Not so with this app which has VoiceOver support for the book descriptions which inspired me to purchase some booksWhen I open a bookI am unable to read anything. Absolutely no VoiceOver support! What a huge disappointment this app is! If this app provided the VoiceOver support to make its material available to blind readers, it would be wonderful. As it is now, thumbs down! I hope the developers arre reading this. ### 1/5 — Unstable *2012-09-07, version 2.2* Very unstable. Crashes whenever I go to open the downloaded book ### 1/5 — Needs fixing *2012-08-26, version 2.2* Every time I go to my books it crashes. I have never been able to read a downloaded book. ### 1/5 — am I missing something? *2012-01-28, version 1.2* seems like some advertising . . . . . ### 1/5 — Requires location disclosure *2012-01-25, version 1.2* It is not appropriate for this type app to demand I turn on location services, and it isn't possible to access the app unless you comply. Deleting app. ### 1/5 — Purchased books close the app! *2011-12-09, version 1.0* I downloaded this free app and I was thrilled when I saw how much cheaper the price of the in-app book purchases were in comparison to iBooks. I bought and downloaded a book. Every time I try to open it, the app closes. I should have just paid the extra $4 for the iBooks version. ### 2/5 — Perfect for me *2013-10-01, version 2.4* I previously gave this app 5 stars but had drop that number. I have paid for a book that is missing a complete chapter! I have found the bookmarks to be absolutely pointless. If I bookmark in the middle of a chapter it saves it at the beginning of the chapter so you have to constantly flip thru trying to get to the spot you bookmarked. Then the most irritating aspect once I finish reading a chapter it returns me to the beginning of that chapter instead of moving me on to the next chapter. 1st book I bought worked perfect and the last 3 I have bought have been a joke. Missing a complete chapter is the final straw. Update with issues fixed or permanently lose a loyal customer. ### 2/5 — Keeps crashing since the Oct 25 update *2012-10-30, version 2.4* Please fix. Keeps crashing now. Frustrating. Use to love this app. Never happened before this latest update. ### 3/5 — Looks interesting *2012-09-02, version 2.2* I can't access the magazine I downloaded. The app keeps crashing ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I am a yoga teacher *2013-01-10, version 2.4* I teach yoga and this has helped me to be cam and submissive ### 5/5 — Satisfaction guaranteed *2012-11-29, version 2.4* I am writing this for the sight impaired. You may have to go to your Notification setting and turn on the sound. Check your device and make sure your app doesn't have a setting that needs to be turned on. God Bless. ### 5/5 — Great Resouce *2012-11-24, version 2.4* I can't say thank you enough! I love this magazine and the huge resources it offers. What a blessing!! ### 5/5 — Great Topics! *2012-11-04, version 2.4* Lots of excellent free material! Awesome app that will actually improve your life. Don't hesitate to try it! Thanks Watkins! ### 5/5 — Love the free magazines! *2012-09-29, version 2.3* There are a few free books and a bunch of free magazines with amazing articles in them. Used to have issues uploading the magazines but it no long gives me problem. I think they fixed that problem. I love the app! ### 5/5 — Mr. *2012-07-15, version 2.1* I love this series, it keeps me informed and in touch with my spirituality. Thank you Watkins for your writers, editors & authors, they all provide a wonderful contribution to learning and humanity. ### 5/5 — Great *2012-06-26, version 2.0* Gain a lot of knowledge ### 5/5 — Namaste *2012-06-03, version 2.0* Pretty nice, I needed an app like this ### 5/5 — Awesome deal *2012-02-03, version 1.2* Thanks for the update! The prices are much better than elsewhere and the map is nice bonus. ### 5/5 — I like this version even more! *2012-02-03, version 1.2* Just updated to the latest version - even more cool stuff for people who are into spirituality. To the point from the previous review, you are NOT forced to turn locations on.
