The need to constantly continue playback when it suddenly stops without any reason, inability to download content to listen offline, among other usability issues have now resolved that I will not continue subscription. Huge promise with great titles, bad UX only to fail.
It’s rather annoying to constantly have to remember which page you were on since the app forgets it all the time and scrolls back to the beginning of the section. Random crashes (plain white screen) aren’t that bad, but forgetting the page doesn’t even seen to require a crash. Edit after 2 years: still forgets where I was reading. No one should pay for this service.
random crashing, buggy reader
Wanted to listen to a course on my phone - video player shows rotating icon and never starts playing.

The UI is of good user experience and the library has lots of high quality books. Thanks O’Reilly.
I find many of my educational books from their service and the app works nicely.
Cannot see learning web design 5 rd edition!
App is good and simple. Content seems good so far. App provides you basics access to the books’ content etc. But there are some stuff not just yet there with iPhone: -adding to playlists - UI is not practical, it lets you add the same stuff over and over again but you’ll never know if you’ve already added the content there or not. -Also the whole ”playlist” idea does not work with books imho. They’re not playable videos. How about ”my books” and separate ”bookmarks” and ”highlights and notes”? Those are missing too. Considering that most of the resources are books, I think those would be the minimum requirements for heavy users. -Feedback you’d have to email, so I clicked on rate instead because this was easier... -”Start reading now” throws you to the books’ first edition press blaah blaah pages or some other irrelevant stuff in the beginning. Sure ok. But seeing content first would be better. Content should be priority. Also sometimes flipping the pages onwards doesn’t work and I’ve got stuck. -Website is clearer. Although overall the different concepts of offering are confusing at first: videos, orioles, case studies, learning paths, live online trainings,... wait what were the differences? After a quick look though, I got the idea now with the differences.
