## Kobo Books & Audiobooks Reviews in Singapore

### *---- "无法在app上购买"
如题，app没有便利性。网站上购买还一直刷卡失败，后来发现我不是唯一遇到此问题的人。只能另外申请PayPal来买书，很无语。
-- forest99999111111, 2024-12-28

### *---- "Total garbage"
What is the point of this app for iOS if the user cannot purchase books to counter the tyranny of Bezos?
-- Krampus-san, 2024-12-07

### ***** "Kobo app"
Wonderful app. Wide selection of books! Fonts, contrasts and background colours easy on the eyes. Easy to use.👍👍👍👍👍
-- pcy24663, 2024-07-20

### ***** "Home Screen keeps resetting"
I love the app but the latest version keeps resetting my Home Screen to the app defaults instead of retaining my personalised collections. Please fix this - it’s super irritating.
-- minisquirt, 2024-06-25

### ***-- "Unable to download many ebooks"
Need improvement
-- Jerrymints, 2024-06-07

### ***** "Best App ever"
Lots of discounts and lots of titles! The app is super friendly to use. I am loving it.
-- LuvTomie, 2024-06-07

### *---- "Boooooo"
Booooo
-- Jedjfgekdjhgdjhs, 2024-06-02

### **--- "Can’t load Chinese book"
I usually bought English book. I found the Chinese book was interesting, so I bought it , but I can’t load into App. Keeping loading and loading, nothing happened, what the point sell Chinese book
-- 周阿曼达, 2024-03-17

### *---- "It is sooooooooooooo bad cause no colour"
Do not buy it😉
-- v bvg gv, 2024-03-11

### ***-- "Its ok not great"
Wish there was a way to lock the page screen so I dont keep accidentally enlarging/shrinking the the page and changing the page count. Its super annoying especially when trying to take down notes because every goddamn time the page number is different
-- uwiwi929282, 2024-01-16

### *---- "Synchronisation avec kobo desktop et kobo app"
Impossible de synchroniser ma kobo app! Pourquoi?
-- kahluabis, 2024-01-04

### *---- "It doesn’t sync"
Added ebooks into my ereader via USB. All the books added appeared in my ereader but doesn’t appear on kobo app. Tried troubleshootings but doesn’t work. Please fix asap.
-- Increadible Jade, 2023-11-16

### ***** "Fantastic app"
I like how this single app has combined ebook and audiobook together into 1, unlike Amazon Audible and book which are two separate apps
-- Edmund1220, 2023-11-05

### ****- "Review on Kokuten Book"
Good 👍
-- Peter Limmy, 2023-10-29

### *---- "SLOW after update"
Scrolling to next page became unbearably slow after update
-- 132536738, 2023-08-14

### ****- "Problems recently"
I’ve been using this app for around 2 years and the experience had been a pleasant one. 

However, recently there has been issues with the page responsiveness (during the changing of pages), as sometimes it can take around 2-3 seconds before the page changes after swiping. 

Another minor issue I’ve faced is that the font colour for the charcoal and dark themes are grey in colour. This makes it difficult to read the text in low brightness/light conditions. Furthermore, the font colour for the main application in dark mode is white, which makes the difference even more apparent.

Nonetheless, aside from these recent issues, the overall experience I have with the app has been a good one. Thus, I hope that these issues can be quickly remedied in the near future.
-- C.Junyao, 2023-07-24

### ***-- "Not so responsive and sometimes sync errors"
The pages don’t flip responsively; you have to wait a second or two, so sometimes you wonder if you have registered your tap. 
Syncing with Overdrive is also not consistent. Sometimes, renewed loans don’t show up on Kobo. 
I have the same grouses about the Kobo e-reader too.
-- Maomao102899, 2023-06-23

### ****- "can’t find my downloaded books.."
i’ve downloaded my books (online) on my ipad and synced multiple times, but they don’t show up on my kobo or the same app on my phone. i’ve also tried making a collection for them, but they appear as an empty collection on both my kobo and phone :(

other than that, the app is solid!
-- stifferino, 2023-06-10

### *---- "Poor UI lacking system"
Doesn’t work well
-- ueikai, 2023-04-23

### *---- "Hung when opening in my iPhone"
Now it cannot load the book I am reading and is hung there
-- Rainbow ark, 2023-03-18
