In need of a major update.

This app is in need of a major update. When it works it is very, very good, but it unfortunately shuts down all the time. I have to hold my breathe, cross my fingers and say my prayers all while I start an audio book. Please debug it! The main reason I subscribe to Naxos Spoken Word Audio is because of the possibility of listening by way of the app.

This is possibly the worst app ever made.

I truly app grateful that this app is available to use since I am a college student on a limited budget with lots of books to read. Nevertheless:I wonder whether the people at Naxos even care whether their apps work well. This app is crap. It stops downloading if the screen goes into standby. That’s ridiculous. There’s no fast forward or rewind buttons in the standby screen mode. The app will only allow a certain amount megabytes to be downloaded, apparently, even when you have many gigabytes left in storage. The app crashes repeatedly for no apparent reason. Naxos would know this if they even bothered to use their own app to see how it works. Either they haven’t done this (which makes no sense if you cared whether your app works well), or they have done this and just don’t care that their app is crap.

I love the library and I hate this app

The app is so terrible, I might need to cancel my subscription, which would be a shame because the audiobook library is so good. Why must I log in every time I open the app again? Half the time, the screen freezes when I open the app, and I can’t even login at all. Can you at least enable facial recognition for the login routine, to save us all a lot of time and trouble? Even better — don’t make us login every single time we open the app.

Incredible collection of classic literature

Very inexpensive access to a huge collection of classic books. Totally worth it compared to purchasing them through larger services.
