I was born and raised in Pakistan; currently live in the US. Getting Urdu books is a big logistical challenge. I learned about this app from an article in Dawn. As compared to Kindle or Apple Books, this app doesn’t seem very generous in allowing you to read “samples”; it keeps directing you to the subscription page which is very annoying when you are only trying to make sense of what the site has to offer. I wish it had an Urdu dictionary built in the app as Kindle does; and provided the option to highlight text. The collection of books is very very limited. I think the subscription fee is very reasonable but the developers must improve and increase the collection. They should start with adding the modern classics of Urdu like Udaas Naslen, Khuda Ki Basti, Aag ka darya etc.
Pricing strategy needs to be looked at!
Asif S.
Can’t say much about the app as it won’t let you move forward till you create an account and even after that asks for a $11.99/m subscription to do anything. These gated walls will discourage most to continue and for a dying language with limited audience pricing strategy isn’t realistic. $1.99/m might have been a better way to develop a customer base.
No free sample to view quality

I downloaded app, registered and wanted to check contents but could not find any free contents. Anything I clicked was asking me to upgrade to premium before I can read even first page of the book. How you expect me to pay for something when I don’t know what will be quality offered
Nice
