Comparing different book apps and selections

As I’ve become more of a tech user in books and less of a television watcher in my illness, I’ve subscribed to many different audible and reader applications.... when you found this app available, I nearly immediately turned off and cancelled every other subscription and app for books and audiobooks.
This selection of not only gospel and spiritual books and audiobooks is remarkable. It would take endless time to read everything available on that subject alone plus all the new books that become available over the months.
It also has a hugely exciting and endless supply of fiction, nonfiction autobiographical books, and children’s books and historical fictional books like “ the work and the glory” type series. And historically accurate books to read and listen to.
I love having this available to read or to play while painting, driving, cleaning, cooking or anything else I might be doing during the day. Thank you Deseret Book and I HIGHLY recommend this over any other book reading, audiobook app!
Some things could be more streamlined but the selection and diverse availability of how one can take advantage of it by listening and or read! 5stars A’s an overall review😀

Love the app - wish it had a few more features

I love this app and enjoy using it daily. It’s become my number one source for gospel study as well as clean fiction reading.
As I was reading a book, I realized it was also available as an audio book. I thought it would be amazing if there was a way to read a book while listening to it at the same time. Then the message would really sink in.
Could the app managers create an option where we could read text and listen to a book at the same time?
I also wish choosing a book was more intuitive. Some of the books don’t have the listen or download button. You have to actually click on the picture of the book to open it. Because of this, a new user has no idea how to actually access some of the titles. Example- Now is your time by Russell M. Nelson.
I’m so happy to be able to access all of the books from my phone. Thanks for continuing to update the app.

Great content; Poor functionality

The app suffers from at least two fundamental and inexplicable defects. First, it has you download individual chapters piecemeal instead of the entire book at one time. This causes various problems, including occasionally (and sometimes unwittingly) skipping over an entire chapter that either hasn’t downloaded yet or did not download successfully. Second, when one triple taps headphones to rewind a bit, instead of just rewinding 30 seconds or something, it rewinds all the way to the beginning of the chapter. I can think of lots of situations where a listener would want to rewind just a little (wanting to listen to an important point again, wanting to back up a little after letting one’s mind drift for a minute, etc.), but I can’t imagine anyone wanting to back up all the way and start a chapter over again, at least not frequently. The reason I refer to these flaws as inexplicable is that they could easily be corrected. Other, far more popular listening apps like Audible don’t have these same flaws. Why not just copy success?

By the way, I’m not inclined to post negative comments publicly. I only do so here as I could not find a way to submit feedback to the developers offline despite searching for a way to do so.
