Signed up for a free trial and couldn't even get past logging in. No matter how many times I logged in, it would bring me right back to the sign up for a free trial prompt. I contacted support. I manually logged in again and reset the password. That didn't work either. I updated the app, but still nothing. I responded to support and am still waiting for a reply. I can't even get into the parent dashboard to cancel the sub because after the 2nd promt to log in, it goes back to free trial again!

The best feature of this app by far is the appearance of the digital books, as compared with books on Amazon Freetime, which download slowly, and are hard to read until you double click the paragraphs, which is difficult to get right with a child, etc. Even the digital books on Libby are sometimes frustrating to read. Every book, audiobook, read-to-me books, and videos play seamlessly. The selection is excellent including books in Spanish! I also love that it's free to educators.

This app is great! I like the variety of books available, though I hope the library continues to expand. The user interface is easy to navigate and I love being able to download for offline reading. Two things I'd like to see added are a repeat button so the littlest readers can easily replay the same book again and again. Add the ability to download the book from the non grid style list along with the available options, collection and/or favorite.

I've been using Epic! with my now 4 year old for over a year. It's awesome. There are a plethora of great books. They miss many of my absolute favorites, but the ones they have are very good and we've found new favorites. And tons of audiobooks! Those are fantastic to have. However, finding all the books in a reading level is impossible, and I very much wish that was MUCH easier. I create lists myself and have found workarounds, but it's annoying and I wish we could search by reading level only.

Wonderful app. My daughter loves it. However, I upgraded to Unlimited through Google Play but the upgrade is not reflected in the app. She still can't access what she wants, and it still shows up as Epic Free. I submitted a support request days ago with a copy of the receipt and I haven't heard a word. No one gets back to you. My advice is to stay on the free side until they fix the upgrade issue and until they have the capacity to deal with their support tickets.

We love the audio books but really prefer the "read to me" section. It reads to them as well as lets them follow along with the story. Quizzes really help make sure they are paying attention. We also really love the added music/sounds that help bring the words to life and helps paint a clear picture in your mind of what is happening in the story. I have the unlimited and have an account for myself (30) , my oldest (9), my middle (3), and the youngest (2). We all LOVE epic reading!
