Ratings and reviews

The clipboard function is turned-off and the app doesn't seem to allow my password manager access, so I have to manually type in my password. That's an unnecessary security risk. Additionally, it is totally unclear to me, why 교보 문고 needs access permissions for so many things on my phone.

Easy to use and their "Baro Deurim (바로드림)" service is very handy if you want to save time and minimize contact during the pandemic. I also had to use the "Reserve" option once, bc the books I needed weren't in stock at my local store. The books came within 2-3 business days :)

Can't I download e-books offline? Coz I really don't have money to buy them.. Idk, but maybe you can put thee amount in bundle form and deduct it from my data bundle.. Please, I love the App but I can't get my head around it ㅠㅠㅠ
