I’m visually impaired and this app has allowed me to read when my eyes don't. I have finally been able to read the books i thought i’d have to give up on when my eyes when downhill but this app has changed that! I do have a small recommendation such as adding a dark mode for people who have bad light sensitivity and for this who have a better time with the contrast apart from that I haven’t experienced any faults with the app that other users have mentioned.
Developer Response
Hello, sorry about the delayed response. I have put forward a feature request for a dark mode to be added, hopefully this may come in a future update :) In the meantime you can enable/disable a colour inversion mode on IOS by triple pressing the home button. This would have a similar result as a dark mode - Aiden (Technical Support)
Shame this is so flawed
daisym00m00
So there are lots of flaws to this app: 1. If someone phones while you are listening the book does not resume afterwards & when you open the app and hit play it re-sets to the start of your listening session. 2. Sleep timer is still broken. Set 30min (for example) it does stop after 30min but when you go back into the book it used to (pre-update) re-set you back to where you were at the start of the listening session- but since the update it just brings you into the book as if it was the first time you opened it. 3. Some books take 3/4 tries at downloading before they will work. 4. Even if you bookmark your spot now the app re-starts as if it’s not been read. Lots seen to have these issues so rather than asking users to give specifics - fix them. I have raised the sleep timer issue in a live chat on Facebook over a year ago and still nothing has been done. Really unsure why we moved away from overdrive which did a great job without these issues.EDIT - added 3/3/22 - app now won’t let me download books! I have sent emails and no reply.

EasyReader does not remember reading position
pat visually impaired customer
The app has big problems keeping track of where I have listened to, numerous times I have to find where I am up to as the booking lock has not been remembered. This is especially prevalent when I've got more than one book on the go. This is fundamental to a book reading app. I would love to have the chance to use a different app but obviously I'm fixed to this one. Sometimes it opens and just reads loading…, This is when you know you've lost all your bookmarks and all your reading library selections. The other criminal problem is that the feedback button produces five smiley to less smiley faces when you slag one the app crashes, for God sake. There are another issues where the book won't stop playing when you press pause and when you can try and control using Siri shortcuts the book does the opposite to what it is commanded to do. I've also got auto start read selected even though the setting does not exist anymore, it did once so I can't turn it off now. a shambles.

Helps my dyslexic daughter
Dyslexic daughter
This app has been a real help for my daughter who struggles to concentrate and read printed text. Since starting high school, she has a lot more reading to do and so She plays the audio version of the book and reads along with the text. She finds it easy to use and and has set it so the text that is being read is highlighted. She sometimes listens to the audio and reads along with the paper book too.It means she is able to get through books much quicker and keep up with her schoolwork. Her vocabulary is improving too as a result.

Thank you for your review. We are glad you are both enjoying EasyReader! If you have any specific feedback for the app, please email us at inapp@yourdolphin.com!
