Description
Welcome to Glassboxx: hassle-free eBook and audiobook access, all in one place.
Glassboxx cuts through all digital content ‘authentication’ issues, consolidating your eBook AND audiobook purchases made through affiliated stores, within an eminently user-friendly, secure environment.
No password required – simply log in with the email address used to buy the book and enter the verification code sent to your email – and your content awaits in the ‘My Books’ area of the app, with formats clearly labelled. With the content in the cloud, downloading requires an initial internet connection, but once downloaded, your books can be enjoyed to your heart’s content in the remotest, furthest-flung corners of the earth, where internet penetration is a mere pipe-dream…
THE AUDIO-PLAYER WILL:
• Auto-save your current position in the book – so that you can pick up right where you left off, even if listening on different devices
• Allow for skip forward/backward to recap where relevant
• Offer sleep timer option
• Play on lock-screen, enabling easy access to playback controls
• Play in background whilst browsing other apps
• Play immediately, and download in the background (provided internet access is available)
THE EREADER ALLOWS FOR:
• Page book-marking, opening the title at the right place when you pick up, even across multiple devices
• Font-size and font face changes, as well as dyslexic-friendly font
• Background colour changes
• Full text search
Welcome to the Glassboxx community!

Ratings and Reviews
Unreliable and unstable
This app demonstrates nicely what an ebook reader should not be like. It is unstable and crashes periodically. On some devices, it cannot be made to run at all, although the six device limit has not been used up yet. Error messages are of the useless “An error occurred” sort. If you’re lucky, you get it to run on some others device and can use it there, it that’s not a safe bet.
Poor UI
It's very frustrating to use. Oftentimes, when clicking through the pages, a line that's coloured in the brand's shading appears, blocking the first line(s) of text, and you have to exit the reader and re-enter to get rid of it. There doesn't seem to be any logic or predictive reasoning behind why this line sometimes shows up and sometimes doesn't.
Developer Response ,
Hello - if you go to the settings and change the page layout to pagination or the margins this line will disappear. Reach out to us at help@glassboxx.com and we will be able to help with this.
Horrible app
there is nothing good in it. No dark mode, very slow, no zoom. Piece of garbage.
Developer Response ,
It sounds like you are reading a PDF book which is a fixed format and does not contain all the user customisation features that our ePub titles have. If you reach out to us at help@glassboxx.com, our customer service team would be happy to check if we have an ePub version of the title you have purchased available.
