College Use

Terrible if you want to highlight anything, or make notes because it is not user friendly on a regular phone. I only use it to read my textbooks aloud but it tweaks the screen formatting out which makes it difficult to use any other feature while it reads aloud. Please fix the missing highlight feature, and lower the audio buttons because it is in the way of the text so we can actually read the bottom of the page.

Avoid at all costs

This app is a nightmare to use and it crashes about every 10 minutes. The voice reader is ancient and just about any other app to read books is better than this. Unfortunately, I have to use it for school. I never bother writing reviews, but this has been horrible. Avoid all costs.

Horrible App

As an older student, the pages are extremely hard to see, and the read aloud feature is very robotic and not easy to listen to long term. I’m searching for options to allow me to complete coursework, but this reader and app is not the answer. Especially for a reading intense 8-week course.

Annoying

If you're going to call your app an eReader, than it should be able to read to you in something other than a Steven Hawking voice. It's completely insufferable. Shouldn't be that complicated. Tons of apps have AI readers with more human sounding voices
