Apple Books Reviews

Makes my reading easier

Mika’s grandfather on

Bahrain

A wonderful App, made just for Apple users-it’s beauty always within reach. Thank God for the gift of technology. I think back to my childhood when I would wait with quiet excitement for the next magazine to arrive. Books were treasures-rare, costly and often beyond my reach except the single library in Edakadathy, Kerala, that felt like a doorway to another world.

للأسف في التحديث الأخير تم ازالة خاصية التعرف على الأشكال مثل الدائرة والمربع والمثلث والخط اثناء الرسم بالقلم وهي خاصية مهمة عند قراءة الكتب وتدوين الملاحظات

Apple Books on iPad

Reader of books!! on

United States

Apple Books on iPhone works great - any time I try to open Apple Books on iPad I have to open and close the app 7 times before it will MAYBE open any books. Extremely frustrating!!!! Kindle works great - no issues between devices. Makes me want to use that app more as it actually works.

Perfect
