What users are saying

1. But alas...Very disappointing I couldn't read books offline and couldn't go into the app...kept on telling me log in failed when my data was on...had to reinstall app on the morning and it started working again... Please fix this problem as I would not want to loose my books again and download them againIt allows me to read any book.

2. You can change the theme from light to dark and vice versa.It was working out fine until today it started popping up with this weird notification of some update...even after i updated it still shows the same thing every time i log in...and i cant access my books...it shows something downloading...and the an app is installed...almost similar which doesn't have my old books😧seriously whhhyyyyy!!!?!?!?I liked the app because it had everything i searched for.

3. I Wish you had, like, different types of accents, or a voice like a Google Assistant/Siri's, reading the books aloud, if you could.All I want is to read a book peacefully.

4. Doesn't cost anyoney, doesn't need you to log in, finds all the books I want to read.. Only problem is the audiobooks.

5. The UI is simple and easy to use and I like that there is a listening feature but it is poor quality maybe it can be improved.The very first time I went in to see what it's like, I read a chapter from a book on my TBR pile... and then I closed the app to do something else.

6. Uninstalled.I've just started using the app and while it is a good app for finding interesting books, the download time is extremely long and you have to wait a while before it actually finishes downloading.

7. WHY THE HECK IS A BOOK SUPPOSED TO LOAD?!! I installed the update and thought this problem would be solved but it's all the same.

8. And you can't read offlineI also experience the problem with some update message appearing when I open the app.

9. I can't read and finish a book without being told "loading failed".

10. It seems to be downloading something and ends up installing another free book app on my phone!!!! Very frustrating.

11. They are so creepy to hear, last night u was going to listen to them for the very first time, shocked me so much I couldn't really sleep for a while.
