- Adjust text display for comfort, with font-size controls and ‘night mode’.
- Search the catalog for new books and videos to add to your queue, and keep up to date with our stream of the most recently-added content

What's New in Version 1.8.2
- Searching for new content is now faster. A LOT faster. Cheetah speed, even.
- Tapping on highlights is no longer tricky and bothersome within the reader.
- Your cellular bandwidth is now safer than ever with a WiFi-only download switch. Celebrate by downloading a bunch of books and videos!
- We've made resuming content from an app relaunch a bit smarter than before.
- The "Newly Added" screen no longer gets flustered when a title is added to it while you're scrolling.
As always, we are looking for beta testers to help test future releases. If you like having your opinion heard and installing test software, send us a message in the Feedback tab within the app.
Customer Reviews
Pretty awful. Missing most essential eReader features.
Doesn't save your place across devices. Launches into the "Newly added to Safari" advertising page rather than whatever you were reading last. No bookmark mechanism. No search capability. Impossible to browse without loosing your place. In general, it's pretty lame. I'd abandon it in a heartbeat if there was some other way to read a Safari book on my iPad/phone.
Bookmarks no longer sync
With latest release Notes do not sync. Support does not respond to emails. Makes me very sad trying to use across devices. I have to write down what page I am on. Has no page bookmarking so need to try and use highlights instead. Big missing feature that an app to read books has no bookmarks.
Very poor quality
Much worse than previous version, making read books a painful experience. You cannot make it utilize the full screen - no matter it landscape or letter, it only occupies a portion of screen - waste a lot space. Don't understand how can such a stupid app be push into the App Store.
