Your app is extremely misleading. I have downloaded books to read, and they have failed to open every time and I literally just downloaded the app. I'm going to try the website, but so far very very disappointing.

Compared to Amazon, BookShout gets a "fair". Adjusting font size, etc. is just ok. The front size changes frequently, on its own. It goes from one size to another and back again. There is no reason why this happens. In addition, there is no option to look up word definitions. I did not think I would purchase other books on this site but the site offers free books.

Would of been nice to get a warning that an update was approaching. As other persons have stated in their review I got stuck in the endless loop of being told there is an update. I figured it out finally! Don't like how BookShout will mark a book as read at random. I have read the books on my bookshelf, I am not 5 years old to have it marked for me. And besides once the check mark appears I can't seem to make it go away and I am unable to see the cover. I definitely do not like the new format; I enjoyed the other format which was pretty easier to figure out what titles were in the cloud and what titles were in my device at one glance. You have to go into settings to do this. Definitely DO NOT like this new version!

Keeps crashing even after reinstall. Hard to locate my newest books. I have about 1200 books in my account. I paid for them and I want to keep them to read again if I want. Books showing up on my first page are from 2011, not my current ones. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and still will not work. Very unhappy with the app. If the app happens to open, sometimes it does not show any books, other times it does. Try to open them and it may spin for an hour before closing.

App is ok for reading, but it can take awhile to sign in and often times skips pages at the end of the chapter. I have to constantly refind my place. Also, I have yet to be able to redeem bookshout bucks. Every time I try to redeem them it tells me the amount is too high and to make the amount lower than the total price, regardless of amount. When reading up on the reason it states some books aren't included. If that's the case then it seems that most aren't, at least the ones that interest me.

I've had numerous issues with books failing to open. I've reported the issues numerous times. After I finish all books that I have, I won't be using this app any longer. It's too much of a hassle.
