Ratings and reviews

I have been using this app daily since my son turned 4 months old. Before, I had an issue with the error popping up on my screen from the May update, but with this new update, I haven't gotten one. Thank you for your attention to this concern. Edit: The app is a lot slower since they added more to the interface.

Awesome app! I've just started and it's been great to view my reading progress so far! It's a simple app, although it took some time to navigate and find out where everything was, the app's purpose just basically keeps track of how much you read in a duration and over time. I really wish there was a way to add little notes to each book though, like a little personal log to each reading. This feature would also be helpful for books we have to manually plug in, since it's harder to keep track.

If one of the features you have available is the ability to time a reading session, you might want to make the feature work. I paused my reading session, turned off my screen to go do something and when I turned my screen on again, I watched the session restart to 0 seconds. Now my entire reading session has been destroyed thanks to this faulty feature.
