Utterly useless
This used to be a great app then something has gone horribly wrong and when ever you select a book it just constantly spools. The ‘rendering’ should take 20 seconds to 2 minutes, we’ll it’s been 4 days now! Please, please, please fix this!!!
It doesn’t work! It’s useless!
Try to download a book and the page spools endlessly as it’s being “rendered” so it can be read. Nothing ever happens . This is obviously somebody’s botched attempt at an “improvement “ on the original app which worked perfectly; I had quite a library of books on that one which have now all disappeared and cannot be retrieved.
Completely Broken
This app has now completely stopped working and needs to be fixed. It jams at startup saying it is re-rendering the book, and never finishes. Tried to give zero stars, but can only post review of one star.
Doesn’t work.
When I try to read a book it says it is rendering and can take up to 2 minutes. My book has been rendering for the best part of a week and I still can’t read it. This needs to be fixed because the App is worthless at the present.
What a Joke
An absolute waste of £££, crashes every time. They really need to get their *hit together and sort it all out with a new update!
No longer works with Dropbox
Used to be an excellent reader, but in 2017 it has stopped linking with Dropbox so you can’t import books. Also any existing book is rendered: that process now hangs and never completes. This app unfortunately is now useless.
App doesn't work
I hate to give a negative review but this app doesn't work. I can't read the books because when I download them they go through something called re-rendering whatever that is and it never seems to end. The links to support, help and the app owners website don't work. So no points in favor whatsoever.
Excellent
The clue is in the title
Doesn't work
Don't buy it as you won't be refunded
