Ratings and reviews

This app is a waste of time. Crashes all the time. I have complained to my campus bookstore. Cengage is great, but it is good for as long as you are enrolled in the class. Why can't yuzu work out all the bugs. Flashcards are a great idea, but lag is making that feature impossible. Highlighting is so frustrating, I want to highlight and move on. Lately, (like 4 mos. Now) I can't load the books on my laptop.

I gave it two stars for the two times it almost started. I couldn't get it to slow down so I could take notes, unless I wanted it to start over every time. Exhausted, then my professor, who definitely does not care about this issue being the reason I'm behind reading this book. Especially since it was the only version available to purchase at my school.

Painful. Yuzu's built in reader voices are very choppy and exhausting to listen to, not what you want for a dense textbook. It's been a few minutes and I want to jump out of my chair. I can use my browser reader (which is very smooth) in cengage and stukent without issue but not yuzu books. Also, the formatting is bad, at least for the Adobe Revealed books - the text is TINY inside the app and I have to zoom in. Just barely meets the definition of functional.
