Unusable

Just wasted $1.99. I have no idea how to import books into this app and there are no directions. My husband and I both googled it. We’re both fairly tech savvy so this is frustrating and a huge disappointment.

“readable content”

I couldn’t upload any books, no matter the file format. the idea is cool but this needs bugs to be worked out

Transfer is not working.

Nothing else to review, I’m sorry to say.

Just doesn’t work

I just get an error message when I try to upload books. And the help address just bounces back. Ugh.

Perfect! Have found no other app like it

So far, this app seems to work exactly as intended! It’s possible there could be a bit of a tech learning curve, as you need to understand what formats can be imported, and need to figure out how to get text to display in the way you want.
