Review summary

Users appreciate that Navigate eReader 2.0 allows offline reading and includes text-to-speech and quiz features. However, multiple reviews highlight severe issues including that TTS stops if the screen sleeps, lack of TTS controls, frequent app crashes forcing book redownloads, poor bookmarking/resume functionality, and difficult-to-read content due to missing zoom. The app often treats audio like phone calls, limiting output options, and has confusing UI and intrusive network notifications. Users express frustration over these limitations, especially given the high cost of the textbooks, and desire significant improvements or fixes from the developers.

Pros

Allows offline reading of ebooks, which is helpful when not connected to the internet.
Includes text-to-speech (TTS) functionality to listen to books.
Provides a better experience compared to the website version in some cases.
Includes helpful features like bookmarking and quizzes.
Offers access to expensive, specialized textbooks on mobile devices.

Cons

Text-to-speech stops playing if the screen goes to sleep; requires screen to stay on.
Frequent crashes and errors requiring reinstalling the app or redownloading books.
No control over TTS settings such as speed, voice, or volume.
Poor handling of bookmarking and resuming reading position; often jumps to chapter start instead of last location.
Zoom functionality missing or inadequate, making tables and images hard to read.
App treats TTS audio like a phone call, restricting audio output options.
App shows confusing or intrusive notifications about network status.
App usability and interface elements are unintuitive or buggy.
Customer support is unhelpful or nonexistent for these issues.

2025-04-20	De*****	I wasn't even able to get my book to show up. I am active in a course for a Roper Rescue class and wanted to have access to read my textbook while on the go. I've completed multiple quiz and assignments on the full site, so I know it's registered to my log in. but the app didn't have my book when I logged in. it says they are a world leader in education. That should imply that there learning tools are functional and effective.
