User Reviews

After years of generally positive feedback, users are reporting widespread instability following the March 2026 update. The majority of reviews highlight crashes, freezes, and unusable behavior, with several noting issues specific to library sign-in and access. Some users also encounter misleading update prompts. While functioning versions remain praised for ease of use and content variety, the consensus is that the app currently suffers from serious reliability problems on multiple devices, with mixed signals about fixes and device compatibility.
