Works well enough for just reading text, but the anatomy textbooks I have are mostly pictures and diagrams, but the app doesn't let you zoom so it's basically useless without the ability to zoom in to see more clearly on my phone. It's such a basic feature that I'm surprised it's not available.

We are really sorry to hear that you are having trouble. We would love to check this out and see if there is anything we can do to get it working for you. Can you please send an email to mobile.help@vitalsource.com with the book, device, and OS version that you are using? Thanks for the feedback!

Used the app regularly for nearly a dozen medical textbooks with no glitch. However, since the last two months I have struggled to access my main textbook i.e. Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics 22 ed. I attempt to open the downloaded version and it closes within seconds. Rather frustrating as all the usual fixes have failed and no solution in sight. I can open it on my iPad but not on my android phone.
