They need to upgrade

We have all type of ai and things out there that can help them improve this app. I am trying to listen to the book and the voice is just not it.

Waah waaaah complain complain

All I see is a bunch of whiners just read you big babies

It’s working just fine for me

Not too sure why these rating are so bad. I’m using the app to read on my IPad instead of my laptop and I’m having no issues. Of course, it’s a bit different but overall it’s no big deal. I’m enjoying it!

Don’t use this if possible!

I find the website fine, but the app is impossible. It’s not user friendly in the slightest. It’s impossible to find the table of contents when reading a book, and the app never syncs to where I was reading on the website even though I am signed in. I wish I hadn’t paid for a year of access and went with a different way to get my text books. These issues seem ongoing and easy to fix but nothing has been publicly done about them in the three months I have been using Cengage. Please make it work better!

Unable to sign in

Terrible user interface and does not seem to be made compatible with ipads.

Terrible

Terrible but I have to use it.

Can't even log in

I would give this zero stars if I could, as the app doesn't even work. I wanted to use this so I didn't have to pull my laptop out for math homework, but I can't even enter my email address to log in. When you tap on the field to enter your login info, it doesn't pull up the keyboard. I've tried requesting the desktop site, mobile site, and even opening the link in my browser, but nothing has worked. Extremely disappointing coming from a company in education, especially when this should be a simple task.

Completely frozen

The app won’t do anything. It is completely frozen. Doesn’t matter if I reinstall the app or reboot my iPad… no response whatsoever.

The Worst Textbook App Ever

I prefer to use the ebook because of its convenience. However, this app is terrible. After 4 years of using the Cengage ebook, I have never enjoyed any moment of reading, especially after each update. The app no longer offers a “lookup” feature (dictionary). The searching feature also useless. Moreover, you can highlight everything you want on the app, and it will not carry over to when you read it online through Cengage’s website. So, what is the point of highlighting then? Fortunately, i don't have to pay a ridiculous amount for something useless like this after this semester
