## Adobe Digital Editions Reviews in Australia

### *---- "What a waste of time"
You are unable to read the book. It is like a bad photocopy, all the paragraphs have faded. You need to download this app for uni and it is a total waste of time.
-- qkwong, 2025-02-08

### *---- "Worse than useless"
Can’t even read the included user manual with this app. Pages appear blank, glitched, or almost normal seemingly at random.
A waste of my time.
-- Klevin842, 2025-02-08

### *---- "Absolute rubbish"
For more than 5 years, this app has stank like the worst trash you can imagine. Completely and utterly incapable of working like a proper ePUB or PDF reader. Adobe knows it but they don’t care about you. They don’t care one ounce that your experience of wasting 30 mins every time you’re forced to use this trash, drives you and thousands of other users up the wall. They really don’t care. So download this at your own will, but you have been warned.
-- stahmo, 2024-12-17

### *---- "One star too many"
If you do get it installed and working (takes forever) it drops out and you have to start again the following day. Nice, if you like going round in circles.
-- Kattermole, 2024-10-10

### *---- "Infuriating"
Can’t believe this is an Adobe product. I’m forced to use it for ebook central and can’t even sign in despite using my adobe account. Not sure why it exists given the number of bad reviews
-- Fictional Villain, 2024-10-06

### *---- "Island in the way"
Some books can’t be read (missing pages). I had one working book BUT the island is in the way. So annoying
-- shakti18, 2024-09-27

### *---- "Useless App"
The ebook can’t be read on this app. Half of the text don’t appear at all. How did this app pass the quality check to be listed on the Apple Store?
-- NothappyXthisapp!, 2024-08-31

### *---- "Don’t Waste Your Time"
The clunkiest PoS, not worth your sanity trying to get it to work properly.
-- Shan1209, 2024-07-28

### *---- "烂"
根本打不开
-- xxxxxxx12345638, 2024-07-26

### *---- "Mastering Law Studies and Exam Techniques"
This app is totally unreadable. The authors of the law book should withdraw from this Adobe platform provider. I’m very disappointed and wasted time on having to now get a real book and deal with the book company.
-- MLSAET, 2024-07-22

### *---- "Stunningly bad!"
All the issues written about in the other 1 star reviews are there for me. The book I purchased is unreadable (unless I want to be content with not being able to read numerous pages in the book). I note there are reviews going back a couple of years discussing this problem. It is puzzling to me that a well established and well regarded developer such as Adobe a) can’t get their app to work after all that time and b) are happy to leave it out there in the market ripping people off .
-- coomilus, 2024-05-16

### *---- "The worlds most irrelevant company"
A company that has zero prospects stays alive by tricking businesses into using their utterly poor platform. Had to use a Mac to open the link to download the file so I could access it on a iPad. 

RIP adobe your time has come. You will be the next Nokia.
-- junkfromjaycar, 2024-04-24

### *---- "Doesn’t function as a reading software at all"
BAD USER INTERFACE!
-- myra_127, 2024-03-18

### *---- "Terrible app"
I spent hundreds of dollars on an etextbook through the publisher’s website, not knowing this would be the app it used. Not only is this app not available on MacBooks, making it hard to study with, 80% of the pages will not load. Even if I am on full wifi or mobile data, I am lucky if even half of a page is legible. I have never been ripped off more in my life. Stay away from this app.
-- Yoel5577, 2024-02-24

### *---- "Don’t waste your time"
Worst app I’ve ever downloaded. It’s so badly integrated and has problems with pagination. It’s also slow to load.
-- MadMumzy, 2024-02-21

### *---- "Botched text - Apply dark mode."
I’ve read a lot of the reviews and a common recurring problem appears to be the botched text from the downloaded books. A solution I’ve found is to apply the dark mode. The incomplete text becomes complete and perfectly fine. 

However I am using this app on an iOS mobile device and have downloaded the content from a uni provided source so issues with download don’t appear to be a problem so far. 
Discretion- this solution might not work for everyone. 
Hope this helps. (App is still wack tho). 

Problem: botched text. 
Solution: apply dark mode.
-- Tertiary student, 2024-02-16

### *---- "Useless as a standalone app"
Unintuitive and requires a computer to add drm’d books. Typical of Adobe trash.
-- Fred222229375, 2024-02-16

### *---- "Absolutely terrible app."
Forced to use this app due to library DRM for the loan. Books virtually unreadable. I cannot understand how an app could be so bad or why libraries persist in forcing users to use it. Believe the one star reviews. This app is a disgrace.
-- san just oz, 2024-01-21

### *---- "Does not work!"
All this does is download the user manual to the iPad. No software…
-- BitzerDip, 2024-01-05

### *---- "Non-functional"
Pages are literally empty, or a garbled, scrambled, pixel-puke of partial text on the occasional page if lucky.
-- Maduvanthi, 2023-11-23
