User Reviews

User reviews largely condemn Ebook Central for iOS: the app is slow and unreliable, with pages not loading, progress not saved, and downloaded books failing to open. It lacks key features (text-to-speech, robust annotations, flexible reading controls) and has cumbersome setup and login requirements. Frequent reliance on the website or Safari reflects a poor, inconsistent reading experience compared to the website.

Pros

Cons

Slow, clunky, and frequently buggy performance that makes the app feel unusable.
Progress and location tracking are unreliable: last-read position not remembered, pages show blank or fail to advance, and downloaded books often won’t open.
Missing essential features for a reading app: no text-to-speech, limited annotation/note-taking, poor zoom/resolution, and minimal reading controls (font/spacing).
Cumbersome setup and frequent login/registration hurdles, with content often requiring sign-in or opening in Safari/browser instead of within the app.
Overall reading experience is inconsistent and inferior to the website, with many users opting to use the mobile site or Safari.
