User Reviews

ReadAnywhere is praised for mobile convenience, offline reading, highlighting, clear text, and a read-aloud option. However, it suffers from widespread reliability and usability issues: frequent login problems, downloads that don’t persist between sessions, a broken search feature, subpar audio playback, and a disorganized Smartbook/annotation experience. The frustration from instability outweighs the perceived benefits, though the core reading features remain valued by some users.

Pros

Convenient for reading textbooks on the go.
Offline download feature for reading without internet.
Highlighting for studying is available.
Text displays cleanly, as the authors intended.
Read-aloud accessibility option adds value for listening.

Cons

Frequent login/sign-out issues and unreliable sign-in.
Offline downloads do not persist; content often needs re-downloading after closing the app.
Search functionality is broken or unreliable after updates.
Audio playback is monotone, often stops when scrolling and has limited controls.
Smartbook UI/organization and annotation features are poor (jumbled lists, no sorting, difficult to delete highlights, limited margins).

Recent reviews

Barely functional as an online textbook reader, hardly ever works as an assignment/module interactive app. Fill in the blank assignments don’t show the question, multiple choice and switch boxes don’t show some answers, cant even display the name of the assignment in the assignments dashboard.

Used to be able to do assignments in app, but since I updated it the words for the questions won’t show up. Also, app holds onto old assignments and previous years’ books.
