User Reviews

Users report a strong catalog and enjoyable reading when it functions, but the app is plagued by instability and performance problems: frequent crashes, failures to open or download purchased books, unreliable audiobook playback, missing features like communities, and non-persistent settings. Overall sentiment is mixed to negative, with content quality praised where applicable but reliability issues dominating feedback.

Pros

Broad catalog of titles, including popular and niche reads, available in the app.
Free to use and easy to access for reading.
Pleasant reading experience and enjoyment when the app functions correctly.

Cons

Frequent crashes, freezes, and overall instability that hamper usage.
Inability to open owned purchases or download purchases; slow or failed downloads.
Poor audiobook playback with skipping, speed resets, and lost playback position.
Catalog gaps and search limitations; many desired books missing or not searchable.
Settings (e.g., reading goals, speed) often do not save.

I opened the app to read a book and takes me to the play store to update. only have 2 options install or open. Does not update. I close the app and open again and continues in a loop "required to update" then goes to the app store again and same 2 options. 😤🤪

This worked great for me for over two years. Now it requires an update and it won't install to my phone and I have lost access to over 470 ebooks in my library.
