User Reviews

Users generally like the app’s integrated reading/listening experience and its user-friendly design, but the app is plagued by reliability and usability issues. Recurring problems include loss of reading progress, missing essential e-reader features, weak library management, no external e-reader export, and overpriced audiobooks. While it shows promise as a unified Warhammer reading app, it needs significant fixes to be worth the price.

Pros

Easy-to-navigate, user-friendly interface.
Seamless integration of ebook and audiobook formats in one app.
Unified purchasing/reading flow bridging website and app.
Added language support / multiple languages.

Cons

Reading progress is not remembered reliably; it often resumes far from where you left off.
Lacks core reading features: no vertical scrolling, limited customization, no dark/night mode, and bookmarking inconsistencies.
Weak library management and discoverability: hard to sort by last read, difficult to filter or locate titles.
No support for exporting to external e-readers (EPUB/Kindle) and external transfer; downloads can be slow.
Audiobook pricing is high with few discounts or subscription options.

Works fine, odd at times when I have to refund-find my position. Would also like the page to be accessible friendly. I use the speak screen option which states what’s on the pages but doesn’t flip the page. This might seem like a little request, but when I have to stop and start again, I have to go through and find what page I’m on. Maybe this could be an easy fix? Giving a 5 star review to hopefully get more readers to join.

Somehow it loses my page. Even just minimizing the app, when reopening it is on a different page, thus failing in its most basic function as a reading app
