Customer Reviews
Crash much?
Got a gift card for the kids. Loaded it and used it to buy a book. Even though the book price was less than the funds in the gift card I still had to enter my credit card. Ok, now I've got the book at least. Back to the app. Refresh and magically the new book shows up. Now for the frustrating part... Every time I try to download the book the app crashes. So I update the app to the latest version and now it's crashing the whole iPad!
Barely Works
On ipad2 Browsed the guide and it does not match the app. Does not rotate. No sound on read to me. Tap does not show controls. Tap and hold does not show dictionary.Only thing that worked was moving from page to page.
Could be better if not for Apple
This app was great at one time before Apple got jealous or whatever and imposed rules where you couldn't shop from the app. Maybe one day they wont mind sharing. They always have to make everything difficult.
