Crashing when downloading certain audiobooks

Australia

Despite rebooting the app multiple times there are a few of my audiobooks that it refuses to download. Also downloading audiobooks is generally slow whereas Audible app downloads pretty swiftly.

Contrary to what’s listed on a website you cant highlight or add notes and i have a test tomorrow where i needed the annotations

Just not very user friendly

The pink flamingo 3245 on

Australia

I’ve tried using it on PC and phone and for someone that wants to highlight and take notes it’s not very user friendly. I bought the book not knowing I have to read it through here. I just want the PDF so I can highlight in my program of choice

Please improve!

L_SN on

Australia

I love my Kobo reader and I would love to be able to use Kobo for my audiobooks too but the app is quite buggy (the timer function often doesn’t work and it suddenly cuts out for no discernible reason) and most importantly, there is no bookmark function! Please improve the app because I would love to buy all my audiobooks through Kobo.

Continue to be charged despite attempts to delete account

Beckson. B on

Australia

I downloaded the app in February 2023 and requested to delete my account soon after. My request has been pending since then. In the meantime, I continue to be charged each month and the app will not allow me send another request. I am in a nightmare email trail with Kobo - they send automatic replies asking me to rate their service in response to my emails asking them to cancel my subscription and refund the $70+ I’ve been charged. I am in limbo with the only option being to get a new card to prevent these monthly charges.
