Ratings and Reviews
Family sharing
Hi I’ve downloaded this app onto each of my two children’s ipads. I’ve bought several books on one device but now want to be able to listen to them on the other child’s iPad without paying twice. Each is logged in with a different iCloud account. Can you tell me how I share the purchases, or how I log the app out of the second iPad so that I can log both into the one version of the app?
Thanks!
Doesn’t work for iOS 13
I’ve been using this App without issue for around a year and a half but unfortunately it doesn’t work for iOS 13. It worked ok up to iOS 10. I have been trying to contact both the App Developer and Penguin Random House Customer Service using the contact details provided on the App and on Penguin’s website but to date I have had no response. I’m now out of pocket having spent money on a new book which will not play. Having read other reviews I’m not the only customer who is having issues with this App - can the Developer please get in touch and do something to resolve this?
Good
I think there really good story’s! And I’d recommend it to anyone it helps me go to sleep at night. But sometimes when I put on the story that I have bought it stops recording and says error.
