It's back!! I was an immediate fan of the original and used spritz to get back into reading after my lifestyle limited my time. The prior version was clunky and lost features over the years. V2 is full-force exactly the reason I got the lifetime subscription originally, and I'm glad I kept the original, patiently awaiting updates. It's great! Wonderful job bringing the app back inline with the original intent and improving the UI on this feature-complete package!

I was asked by the developer to re-evaluate their product which I was more than happy to do. I noticed that it worked nicely on both my folding phone and tablet (unlike V1). I was able to easily add my book through the WIFI transfer too! And that's all I can say positively. A subscription model? The most hated by users, you should expect negative reviews. $60 a year to use a reading app?! I BOUGHT my last physical e-ink e-reader for that price! Change your pricing, I'll change my review.
