Great content, ANNOYING to update
I downloaded this in February to have Shakespeare's plays at my fingertips. And that's what you get, but OMG the updating is ridiculously obnoxious and constant! It seems like they update this every 10 days (WHY do they keep updating a database that hasn't changed since the 1600s!!!) and it's one of those immense apps that you have to plug into iTunes to update. So I do that, yadda yadda, but it isn't that easy. You have to REBUY IT EVERY TIME THEY UPDATE IT and then manually re-sync your iPhone. STOP UPDATING THE THING!
Great. But now I have a bug
I love this app. I've read several plays since I've downloaded it and it's very easy to use. I love how you can customize everything and how it remembers where you left off. It's even better on the iPad.
Unfortunately I now have a bug. Every time I go back to the menu to choose something new to read, it shoots me back to hamlet. Please fix this so I can read something other then hamlet!
Nice work
Simple and very useful app for anyone who likes classics.
