Ratings and Reviews
Overall good, but two strong suggestions to the developers
First off, I like the app overall. I use it with my Calibre library and it works great. I have on occasion used the server function also but not that often. The interface is good but the tagging and organizing of the books in the app is definitely not intuitive. I have done a lot of Human interface design in my career and am confident that with a little work this part of the interface could be greatly improved.
My biggest issue is the cloud sync. It doesn’t really fit what I would consider a typical use case for the app. The scenario it needs to handle is ‘the user has been reading a book on their iPad. They head out of the house without the iPad and find they have some time on their hands so they go to their iPHone and pull up the book, but it isn’t synced to their last position because they didn’t consider syncing the book on the iPad the last time they put it down’.
Simple solution is to support auto cloud sync. It could be a user preference, but the book position would be updated whenever an appropriate event occurred - e.g., every 15 minutes, when the iPad is put in sleep mode, when the book is closed and another is open. I’m sure there are other events that would also make sense.
filled with passion!
so many wonderful little touches & options mimicking how one reads a real book, best ereader app & it’s not even close! thank you!
Developer Response ,
no longer working after update
I use this app for cookbooks but after the recent update there are many pages missing from books with many subchapters and the search function never leads me to the right place. This app was great but now it’s not really usable. Please fix!
Developer Response ,
Could you send us one such cookbook to help diagnosis? In the meanwhile, please try reading in Modern Scroll view, and see if it helps.
