Serial Reader Reviews

One of the best decisions that I have ever made.

Rary Das on

United Arab Emirates

This works best for those who find it quite difficult to dedicate time to catch up on your reading. Serial Reader has helped me get through my classics TBR effortlessly and systematically. It lets you read multiple books at once, without pushing you into a reading slump. It is truly a remarkable application and definitely something that I have shared with all my reading buddies. Thank you Serial Reader.

Love this app!

J-Wolfdog on

United States

Achievements, badges, a premium mobile reading experience, large selection of great works to read... A premium app without a subscription, with a generous free option, and honestly underpriced pay-once premium option. There's so much to appreciate here. I plan to give the dev a tip each time I finish a book, as I'm able. Thank you for making such a great app accessible.

Love this!

I love this option for getting reading done in short time periods such as my lunch break. Looking forward to reading more of the available titles!

Excellent motivation

ChuckJunkin on

United States

I really enjoy waking up and having a bite sized piece of good literature to read each day. I also like that there is a meter to measure what kind of a streak I am on, which motivates me to keep it at 100 percent. There is a wide variety of books to choose from, and it helps me get through some of the more difficult reading, such as Dantes Inferno.

I love it

Michaelt1952 on

I’m reading classics I’ve been meaning to read my whole life.

Thank You

I want to commend you for the time it takes to make SerialReader available to your subscribers. Even though I have a hard time sticking to goals, SerialReader is always there when I’m focused. I don’t know how long I’ve been a subscriber but I appreciate your time and effort. Whenever I am on the app, I do send a tip from time to time.

Amazing concept

Tanner Hendrickson on

United States

This is really a brilliant concept, executed very well. I had previously complained about battery drain, but I think it may have been some residual jank from a software update that has since worked itself out. Review updated to five stars, and kudos to the developer for a quick response to my review. Cheers!

Excellent tool! Just what I needed

10secfwd on

United States

I have tried many times to read some books on small portions a day. It is cumbersome to calculate and keep track. This app is the perfect way to tackle some classics that I have always wanted to read and never had. The app is simple to use but it has very nice extra features that I didn’t expect. I love the highlighting and how you can download them all together. You can do notes. Fix the type and size of the typeface on the reading screen. It has fun words of encouragement every day and landmark badges. Great app. I am thankful it was recommended to me and gladly paid the for the premium version.

This app is fantastic

Been using it for several years now. Great selection of books, super easy to use. Highly recommend.

Such an absolute joy to have

lenarael on

United States

With the many distractions clambering for our attention nowadays this app is such a pleasure. Free unless you want to show your appreciation with a donation, this work helps amend the lack of literature in daily life, or correct the missing gaps in education. Very very grateful to its creator Michael Schmitt.
