Downloaded this to get an e book through Caledon public library. Caledon directs you to the website for this purpose but wanted to try the Android app. Of course, caledon isn't on the list. The only Ontario listing seems to be North York regional hospital. Totally useless for me.

The app easily allows me to checkout ebooks, but I receive an error every time I try to download them for offline use. I tried reinstalling the app, but that did not help. The app is useless to me if I can't read the books offline. This app needs some serious work!

Had to make an account to access a book for class. Fine, that's okay. The print is insanely tiny and I can not find a way o make it a decent size. Will change my review if I figure out how.

Just like the rest of the reviewers mentioned, it pretty sad. Biggest issue is you can't change the font size -- which one would think is a pretty basic function of a READING app -- so almost useless on a phone. If they could fix that, it would be passable but as is not so much.

Worst ebook reader I have tried. Chrome works better. Can't even adjust font size. Page flip way too sensitive. I hate that my library made a deal with this product.

Often has blank pages and app needs to be restarted, sometimes this helps, often it doesn't. Nearly useless. Highlighting may or may not work, depending on the book.
