Scanning pages and device goes to Home Screen
The app has potential but for the price it’s got too many major bugs. Wish I could get refunded. My main concerns: 1: Taking a pic of the page of words will sometimes rearrange the sentence or add in random “a” or “is” and you have to edit. 2: when listening to the documents it will just freeze and I have to shut the app down and start it all over again. Frustrating because it won’t just start from where you left off. 3: The app just closes randomly, especially when trying to edit the issues in the capturing. Way too many major bugs. The voices sound good for listening but can’t get further than a couple mins without these issues. :(
Makes a decent amount of spelling my errors It works great , could use more voices though!
Awesome app! Nothing beats listening to your books while doing a morning jog.
Add Sanskrit, Nepali Hindi.
I did not sign up for subscription somehow it signed itself up for a subscription. I’ve paid seven months worth of this subscription and had no clue just now found out about it because the bank told me that it was a fraudulent purchase yeah $350 worth I want my money back.😡😡
At nearly $50 a month this is out of reach for the average person who needs help with reading. Seems they are out to take advantage of people who generally do not have an extra $600 a year to spend in order to listen to a book that they are unable to read due to some kind of disability. It is shameful how much they charge but what is even more shameful is their free version and how they pretty much harass you literally every paragraph (not exaggerating) into buying the premium subscription. The first few paragraphs are beautiful has a nice voice, pronounces everything correctly and then all of a sudden everything stops, and it asks you to buy the subscription. When you don't, suddenly there is the oldest most ridiculous version that starts reading for you. No, your book is being read by some 1990 computer voice that you got free from your computer cannot pronounce even the most common English word. The free reading extension on chrome is 1000 times better and though it might say an unusual word incorrectly, this thing here is ridiculous. You're literally feel like you're listening to someone who just almost learned English yesterday. It seems that they deliberately make it so horrible and uncomfortable that they think they're going to force you to buy their subscription. And then the next paragraph is read again in the nice voice that pronounces everything correctly, the stops again, the popup appears and want you to subscribe. you click no and as punishment the crappy voice re-reads the paragraph you just heard. Now, get to hear the next paragraph and the nice voice is back, read the paragraph and then the pop-up is back. If you say no to the subscription, you get punished again with the re-reading by the illiterate junkyard robot. Does a nice voice comes back and reads the next paragraph, again the pop-up again punishment by the crappy robot voice, and this keeps going on and on and on. You make very little progress through your book. It is a horrible sales tactic and because of it, I wouldn't trust giving this company a penny let alone $50/mo. Anyone company that puts someone through that insanity cannot be trusted with your cc number.
This is an awful app. It lags and doesn’t work well. I was charged for the month because I forgot to cancel my subscription, then when I opened it again after a couple of days it asked if I wanted to reinstate my subscription? It had not been cancelled! The auto photo taking is awful, it doesn’t recognize the page. Even the manual option is terrible. The voices don’t pronounce words correctly. If I could give it 0 stars I would.
Made me go through 20 minutes of setup and then only after that told me that almost every feature that would have made this app remotely usable was subscription-only.
The page scanner is awful. You will hold it so only a the page you want can be seen and then it somehow grabs 1/3 of the other page and distorts it making it unusable. Then once to finally scan the pages you want it to read, the app randomly closes out on you every few minutes and you have to try to find where you were again. I have another app that scans pages and turns it into perfectly good PDFs that no other app has an issue with, but when I try to import those into this app, it thinks it’s not a PDF. So in summary, for $50 a month you get an app that can’t scan pages without major issues, won’t import PDFs as it says it does, and crashes every few minutes. TRASH! 🗑️
