  • Cute and easy

    Great narrator and easy to follow story with fun characters
  • Missing lots of standard reader controls

    While I’m glad I can read files in a wider variety of formats, I find myself missing things like control of margin widths, line spacing, font size, and type face. Is it really too much to ask to give background color options other than the system default fff or 000?
  • Typical Apple product

    More about cloud space than actual practicality for the consumer
  • How to categorize my library?

    Love the app , I have some 350 books… so finding a particular title is a challenge. Your App could be improved if the books could be organized by category, or put in alphabetical order.

  • Trash

    This app has completely broken. Do not spend money here. I had one book I couldn’t listen to AND NOW I CANT LISTEN TO ANY EVEN IF I JUST BOUGHT THEM. It makes me enter and re enter and change my password but it will not play audiobooks. Broken. Terrible. Trash.
  • Doesn’t save format options

    I like this app but it only keeps the look and feel I select for a limited amount of time before reverting back to the default. It would be nice if it would just stay on the settings I chose until I decide to change it myself.
  • You cannot cancel

    We’ve been attempting to cancel this app for over an hour following the instructions for in app cancel; on audible website cancel; canceling via Amazon. No joy! Multiple Reddit threads explaining the same thing. They are not compliant with the FTC’s one-click rule.

    Apple Books is like that one cousin from the country who shows up at family gatherings, excited to talk about their ‘library’—but it’s just a bunch of random, dusty old books in no particular order. You’ll spend hours scrolling through a clunky interface trying to find the book you actually want, only to be distracted by pop-ups begging you to buy more. Kindle, on the other hand, is the smart cousin—efficient, organized, and actually knows how to get to the point without wasting your time.

    I have read a bunch of books on this app but it has a ‘catch’ in it. It doesn’t matter the book, it freezes and skips forward like 10 pages! It does it at least once per day. I have to close the app and restart it, sometimes more than once to fix it and continue reading the book I PAID for. I can’t believe they haven’t made a patch for this…. If they do I’ll probably change my review. It totally interrupts the reading experience.
