Ratings and reviews

Complete scam. I tried to install the app but the app never installed properly and wouldn't even open. I didn't think anything of it until I was charged $42 for a 3 month subscription. Went online to cancel and was magically offered a year subscription for the low cost of 14.99. What they don't tell you until you click accept is that it's after the current billing cycle so in summary I paid over $42 for an app that I've never once opened. Steer clear of these scammers

The app saves a lot of time from old-fashioned reading. I enjoy the format of the library, downloads, and an option to read the transcript at the same time. HOWEVER, there seem to be only 3 narrator voices, and I got tired of them. Additionally, I listened to a few summaries for books I also physically have, and the summary does not match the message of the book. In short, it was doing the interpretation for me, while the point of reading a book is to decide for yourself. Going back to books.

I hate the voice. And you can't change it. I am so mad I purchased this for 3 months. The voice doesn't have a good rhythm, flow or tone to it. The dropping down at the end of the words on sentences gives it a condescending tone. It also has long pauses in the speech making it slow to get content out. With what the company charges they should hire a couple more voice actors.
