Paid version is good but has room for improvement

Happy with the paid version. Very smooth. Would be even better if it allowed the reader to bookmark for saved and long articles. Another less important point, perhaps introduce dark mode reading. Thanks!

Superb

I would never have been able to store thirty two volumes in my small home, so I find this app absolutely amazing.
It operates perfectly on my iPad, and I find myself constantly opening it up and browsing through all the many articles.

Great

Love the app. Pay the money to lose the adverts. Dip into it daily and just keep digging deeper. The only downer is the search bar a third of the way from the top, just hanging in the middle of the picture?! Move it to the top and be done with it!
