Добрый день! После обновления iPhone 16 версия, приложение не открывается
It would be good if not so infuriating when glitches
userFromThePast
Pros: - Alternative to Kindle - Cheaper books Cons: - Navigation and controls are lacking in intuitivity - The app is glitchy. I am on the latest version of it and it constantly glitches. For example, the most infuriating bug is when it stucks on the same page although it responds to taps and turns over pages in the back. Nothing can help aside restarting the app. Happens several times during a day. Super annoying. It’s not only forces me to close it and reopen but on top of it I have to find the last page since it was flipping pages while glitched 😠😠 Made me spent my time to text this review instead of reading a book 😒 - Also flops accidentally during usage of slider bar

Left far behind the Kindle...

Decided to compare recently... And surprisingly discovered that Kindle progressed much further in terms of usability and inline services (if compared to Kobo). Lack of inline context search results (wiki, dictionaries etc) looks unusual nowadays. The only positive moment I'd mention is cheaper book prices @Kobo.###Looks pretty good, smoothly transitions among the menu options are really looking very well. Comparison with Kindle: Pros: - design; - inline pictures viewing much more convenient than in most others readers (scaling and full-size are supported); - different options for page turning (incl. scrolling like in browser); Cons (most significant): - no Russian dictionaries at all (except full search in Google like it was in Kindle; at least Google Translator support would be nice); - no search option; - too many overburden information (though almost everything can be deactivated manually). It was also convenient in some cases to use external Kindle's converter (when you send a book in any supported format to special e-mail and get it in Kindle). All in all - interesting product (itself and as Kindle's alternative).
