User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's concept as a digital library that encourages reading and offers convenient access to various eBooks. However, multiple reviews report serious issues including app crashes, poor search functionality, and problems in borrowing and opening books. The book selection is limited, heavily Malay-focused, with few international titles. Users also criticize the outdated and complicated user interface, frequent logging out, and lack of key features like notifications and manual returns. Login and authentication problems further hinder the user experience. Improvements are urgently needed for stability, usability, and content diversity.

Recent reviews

Horrible user interface. Can't search for books. Results always come up with nothing. Limited book choices. Practically nothing by Sasterawan Negara. Doesn't allow you to borrow/reserve books! And what is with the horrible English? Out of all the people you hired, is there none capable of using proper grammar?
