## Review summary

Dolphin EasyReader is valued for accessibility and a large book library, with strong positive sentiment from many users. However, it faces recurring issues: instability and crashes, failure to save progress or remember last location, and flaky bookmark/navigation features. The premium pricing and limits on usage deter many, and language availability gaps persist. Overall, accessibility strengths are overshadowed by reliability and cost concerns in multiple reviews.

### Pros

- Strong accessibility support for blind/visually impaired users (RNIB compatibility).
- Large library of books available through the app.
- Positive overall sentiment from many users, with praise like 'the best reading app' and expressions of love for the product.

### Cons

- Crashes randomly and the app is unstable on multiple devices.
- Progress does not reliably save; books reset to the beginning and bookmarking often fails to resume a last position.
- Navigation and bookmarking features are glitchy (no easy way to jump to the last bookmark; skip forward/back can be unreliable).
- Premium pricing and usage limits are expensive or restrictive (e.g., high annual price or limits on reading/imported books).
- Language availability gaps (Hindi not available; Indian English not available).
