Ratings and reviews

actually totally overrated app. - no options for eink devices / eareader tablets (in 2019!) - no options for page turns without animations - no options for setting up page turns with hardware keys (i have vol +/- and page buttons on android tab - non is working) - text reflow is wrapping up articles with wrong pictures) - ok - difficult topic as it is generated.... - but opting out pictures is not possible i think this app has a lot of potential - but where is costumer driven orientation?

Tried the £10.99 subscription model, disappointed that some magazines incur an additional cost and limited to reading on only two devices. In order not to pay any future costs cancelled my subscription, at which point I lost the ability to read any more publications despite having the credits to do so. Very petty and shortsighted that they do that, will certainly not subscribe again.

Oddly, my previous review disappeared, which was about the inability to take a screenshot for something as benign as a cross word puzzle when having a library card providing access to the actual physical copies. Now, to add to that, some publications can't even be read, although again, part of my library subscription. Claiming to be unable to download at high resolution, it actually only shows unreadable small previous and actual readable content isn't available.
