Ratings and reviews

It's unbelievably slow and buggy app. Using it is very frustrating. Sorting of the books just doesn't work. The UI for sorting is very unintuitive, books are jumping when you drag them. And the most importantly after you save the changes, exit the playlist and open it again - sorting is gone! I downloaded some books but opening them takes longer than opening non downloaded, some chapters of downloaded books are not available for some reason, so I had to delete the downloads to be able to read.

In truth I have not tried to watch a video in this app which is probably the most common use case. However I have tried to listen to an audiobook. The app is so full of bugs that it is completely unusable for me. Examples: you click on chapter 4 and it plays chapter 2; it randomly stops playing without any error message

Content is great but to enjoy it you have interact with this awful app. Everything is show. Each screen take forever to load. Player settings such as audio speed frequently reset. Audio playback occasionally stops, especially when the screen is off. Audiobook player can't control a downloaded book while you are offline, so you can't play or pause while in an elevator or on tube.
