Ratings and Reviews
Ok but slow
The title says it all. It's ok, but reacts slower to actions compared to iBooks or Kindle.
Many bugs
Like Kobo but the app is very buggy.... when I annotate a sentence a few seconds later it brings up dictionary even though i annotated a whole sentence not one single word i would like to lookup in dictionary...after that the app behaves differently, from freezing for a couple of seconds to becoming frozen for a longer time. Sometimes I have to shut it down and restart it... its really annoying since i like to annotate a lot... this makes the user experience when you want to read continuously annoying
