Ratings and Reviews
Awful!
This is a poorly written app. How did Apple allow this app to be offered by its Store? After entering my email address correctly (twice) I did not get a confirmation email. The bigger issue is that it is difficult to navigate through. In order to move back to the page, after entering your email address, you are unable to go to the main page to allow you to select titles to review. In order to reach the main page, you have to the swipe the page up and close it and then go back to the page. Also, it doesn’t even allow you to select the categories of books you wish to review. Extremely rudimentary and poorly developed.
Horrible App
If I could give this app 0 stars, I would. It doesn’t keep your place when you read on the app, even if you bookmark your spot. It won’t allow you to email a copy of the books because the files are too large. The requests time out before you can email it to yourself. If you choose to download it, it doesn’t pop up or anything. It won’t even let me click on support. The actual website isn’t any better.
Developer Response ,
Hello, thanks for your review. These issues should be resolved, if you're still experiencing them please reach out to us so that we can look into the problem in more detail.
Regarding being unable to email books that are too large, that's not something that we can fix as email attachments have size limits and some books are simply to large to be emailed.
Limited functionality and poor UI
This is the first app I’ve downloaded from the App Store that’s not sized for my phone and requires a horizontal scroll. It also has half the content of the website, ie no author services. Which is a shame since the website is basically nonfunctional on safari for iOS. Not a great look for a service authors are paying to use.
Developer Response ,
Hello, we believe that the sizing should be fixed now. If you're still experiencing this issue, please reach out to our support team so we can ask for screenshots and device info.
As for not having the author side of the site, that's intentional. This app only contains the reviewer side of things. For the author side of Booksprout please use our website.
