  1. 5/5Half of app is in another language when signed up with vpn on

    I happened to have vpn turned on when I installed the app, and it turned out German. I was able to change the app language, but now half of the program is in English and the rest is in German. When I use a browser to go to the homepage to contact support, everything goes back to German. I even managed to arrive at a “choose your country” page, and whatever I choose the site is always in German. Could you please sort it out ?

  2. 1/5This app is so annoying....

    Ok so, I chooseed this app because I like to have variety of books to listen in my library, and it’s more easy to me since you can read the books you want without points limitations. I like the book selection and the price is pretty nice. The thing is that I live in the US and I literally can’t read almost any of the books I want to read(?? All the english books say “the tittle is not available in your current location” What I am supposed to read? I know how to speak Spanish and I am currently reading some of then, bt there are many books in english that I want to read... I wrote to the help email to talk about the location issue and it has been weeks and nobody answered. If this is the case, I feel that the app lost a lot of potential. I will finish the books in Spanish that I am reading for a while and then cancel my subscription because I am literally paying for a minimum selection of books.

  3. 4/5Would have given a five stars if not for the UX

    The app is great for it contents, especially for the regional languages. I subscribe to the app for my mother, so she can listen to books in Malayalam. I do have some issues with the UX. If I select a preferred language as Malayalam ,I only want to see my recommendations in Malayalam and not in any other language. I tried to explain this to their support center in India, but I don’t think they understood what I meant. The UI is not very user friendly, and especially not for older person. I think it would be a good idea to revisit the UI and not lose out on an entire market segment.

  4. 5/5The application is amazing but i would love it more if had this feature

    This application is everything i needed to go back to books reading and listening, and has various types of books and it is very good, i would love it more if i could sort out my books in different categories according to my brain but all in all its amazing

  5. 3/5Missing some e-book functions

    When reading e-books, it’s great that the page numbers and clock show all the time, but some features are definitely missing. There is no text search feature, which is one of the best things about e-books. It’s also not possible to zoom in on the cover art or any other pictures in the book. Another nice feature that’s missing is the ability to highlight text for later reference. Finally, I can’t for the life of me figure out why tapping the screen to get the menu bar turns some lines orange…!

    Virkelig god måde at høre lydbøger

  2. 1/5

    it should be forbidden to publish unreviewed ai translations and ai generated audiobooks where pronunciation shifts from one nonsense to another ( for example names of characters that change without any sense ) intonations and accents that have nothing to do with plot of the story.. come flippin on. you are app for books are there no any sacred things to you? I can get that ai am generated audio is much cheaper but publishing it clearly without any review is just cursed betrayal of your users

  4. 5/5

    excellent although I definitely believe the one thing they can make better on is having the option to create bookshelves/tags rather than have every single book you liked in one library. The best audiobook app out there
