Sadly full of bugs and poor performance / designwhich make reading hard. The main ones are... 1. Books skip to bottom when scrolling down and you cannot return to top of book without logging out 2. Cannot be used offline even though books are downloaded as requires login 3. Image loading performance offline is very poor 4. Quiz functionality doesn't work, so requires use of website 5. On website the book reading functionality doesn't work, so requires use of app

My daughters school paid a lot of money for this service and are encouraging parents to use this instead of books to follow there curriculum, however this does not work on an Amazon fire kids tablet, the best selling kids tablet in the UK and it don't work? I will not let my daughter use the app on anything else as I do not want her to be able to shut the app and then not be protected out of a kids browser. Sort it out reading buddy

Why can't you read the books AND do the quiz in the app??? Kind of renders the app a bit useless.
