Wonderful app!

Thank you for this great app with wonderful free e-books! It is very useful to me

Navigating Pages in Big Books is Horrible

I recently bought a Book of Mormon commentary and navigating the long chapters js extremely unpleasant. Please fix the page browsing issues.

Good but needs a little work

Maybe its just my updates or whatever, but I seem to keep having the same problems. When I go to select a section of words to highlight or book mark, I have to select and re-select the section at least twice before it will give me the option of highlight/bookmark/etc. When I leave the app, it would be nice if I could just pick up where I left off when I reopen it, with the same book. Sometimes it will bring me back to the same book Im reading sometimes it just pulls up the menu and quote/etc. In the times where upon reopening it brings me back to the book I was reading its in the beginning of the book instead of where I last read. It also would be so nice to be able to make purchases straight from the app instead of having to transfer to browser to purchase/add to wishlist.

Very user UN-friendly!

Over the years, your site progressively becomes worse. Get a real programmer to develop a user friendly menu page. Most of all, provide a "Home" button on All pages. Your app takes me to dark holes that have no way to exit. Maybe let Amazon take over the DB bookshelf.

Great App

Thanks for making this app user friendly

Great app, just a few more updates

I love this app for my scripture study. It gets even better with every update though I still have some trouble with highlighting sections unless I highlight it and then rehighlight it, then it gives me the option to mark it. I love the feature where you can email sections in the book because I take a lot of notes with my study but it seems to freeze my iPad more than actually email it. Overall it is a great app!!

Scriptural links STINK

Come on, developers -- your scriptural links STINK!! What is up with the highlight "disappearing act?" It fades away from the scriptural text after a few seconds. That is ridiculous. No way am I alone with this complaint. And why are you highlighting only the first verse of a passage?? Just do it like the Gospel Library app. PLEASE!!! I have tried to get through to you on this issue so many times, and no one listens. This issue is the missing LINK (pun intended) to making your reading experience great!!!

What happened?

Suddenly I cannot open anything. The update lost everything for me. I hope it can be fixed because I had truly enjoyed the old version. No stars at this point! I had to tap a star in order to submit my concerns.

Great app

Love all the available books. But would love to see page turning animation like kindle app.

Very good app.

Its a very good app, the best function is that it operates on multiple platforms. Having your whole library available as you use multiple formats and books then being able to archive them is a large plus.

Crash

This app used to work. Now it keeps crashing or will not start at all on my iPad. What is going on? Reinstalling for the 7th or 8th time.

Its Fixed - Looks great

So glad it is working again. Havent gotten to try all the new stuff but all seems to be good. Will do another review after I try all the new upgrades. It looks great!

Not impressed

I used the beta version for a couple of weeks and Im not impressed. The reader has less control of how to view books and they dropped the clock from view when reading. Dont like new look.

Like the app. Would like it to have a shut off timer

I miss the auto shut off that lets it play for 10 min or etc then turns itself off otherwise I like the app

New "Discover" tab is awesome.

I love the new update. I especially like the "Discover" tab. I love that the audio selection seems to continually to increase.

Good App

I like the new look, however, I do miss the ability to swipe on todays quote to see the previous days quotes. It would be nice to have a way to look at quotes as they appeared chronologically on the app.

Very Glitchy

I want to like this app but it just doesnt work. Its not user friendly.

Cant log in

I cant log in now after the latest update. I keep getting an error "login is already in process error - 109)

Wont let me log in

While there is a picture of a very attractive man listening to a book that opens when I click on the app, thats as far as I can get before it kicks me out. Very frustrating.

Doesnt work

When I try to open the app it freezes or shuts off.
