Perfect for reading, including the vioce reader, it's awesome!!. The only big problem is that money is required to access a book in this app. I suggest that the use of data alone will be better in this app rather than paying money to obtain a book.

Very bad app, they give you wrong advert and when you download, it's a different ball game.. Asking for money to listen to what they tell you was free before downloading the app.. What about the less privileged in the society who can't read and have no money to purchase your outrageous yearly, Monthly plan??
