    This is a staple app/tool in my work life. It lends me focus when reading silently is difficult. I find it is one of the programs that helps me get through concentration hurdles. I’ve used it for years and years.
  • Not that intelligent for an artificial intelligence

    This thing skips lines, misreads and does its own thing! It also crashes a lot especially when the file is long

    Very frustrating app - again it’s with the Bookshare This time - Books looks like they have downloaded but when I try to open it says downloading but they never open When the app works I give it a 5 but the problems with Bookshare happening more frequently so reviewed and dropped to 3 stars
  • Not a “free” app…

    There is no free functionality here it’s just a paid subscription app that doesn’t let you do anything until you start a trial that rolls over to $80/year. Can’t try anything out until starting the subscription.
  • Ужасное приложение

    Затея была бы неплохой если б давали возможность хотя бы неделю попользоваться программой бесплатно. Изначально писало что программой можно пользоваться бесплатно 3 дня, а по итогу, пока настраивала скорость воспроизведения оказалось что бесплатный период кончился (это не происходило в течении 3 дней конечно же, скорее в течение 3 минут) удалила данной приложение за невозможностью опробовать
  • Had to pay subscription so I uninstalled.

  • Seems Deceptive

    The app doesn’t say the cost, and it’s not clear if there is a cost unless you read through to the end of the detailed description. Then when you download the app, before they tell you anything else about the actual cost, they first require your email address, and also require that you complete a questionnaire about your demographics and how you plan to use the app, which seems to be useful for their own analytics purposes and has not much to do with you, and is something otherwise they might have to pay for or make it totally optional, but in this case it is a requirement that they sneak on you before they tell you the cost of the app. And after this they finally tell you the high cost of this app. The problem is this was a bait and switch, because it was not apparent or reasonable that they would require this information when you download the app, but they do it this way probably so they can sneakily milk marketing and analytics info out of you before they reveal the actual price.
  • Great app, bad accounting

    I purchased what was suppose to be a monthly payment program. No, they take it only one way- 100%, NO MONTHLY PAYMENT. Now my account is overdrawn thanks to them. And, IF they refund my purchase it will be a few days. Fasting never hurt I guess- crumbs…
