Navigation: swiping doesn't always work. Hitting an abbreviation (or footnote?) takes you to another location, and there is no 'back' facility. Highlights: highlighting a few words or sentences often results in not the words desired being highlighted, but all the words from the top of the screen to the one initially highlighted being selected, especially if dragging the selection forward. One has to select the last word and drag the selection backwards. Sometimes it does not select it. Etc.

I'm really impressed. A Perlego subscription offers a huge selection of the best academic textbooks around, including those that run $150+. I'm now able to read those books that were priced out of my reach. Easy on the eyes, you can select background paper color, font, font size. You can highlight, annotate, export references when citing, sync all this on the PC. They really have thought of what an academic needs. It is to academic books what Mendeley for PC is to Journal articles.

Awful. Worst app development ever. It used to be only slow and sometimes laggy and sometimes unresponsive. Now it just never loads. It opens up and shows my library for a second and then goes back to the logo page and never gets out of it. I tried updating but that didn't help. Their web interface is almost as bad.
