I really wanted to start reading books again, my favourite author is David Eddings, Sparhawk series started me reading again years ago and I wanted to feel how I did back then! With less time on my hands I was able to feel the same feelings again by listening! It's awesome! Only 4* I have downloaded books, cleared the cache ect ect I'm still getting mid sentence pausing, sometimes the voice just stalls for no reason at all and I have to pause then play to continue. small bugs but tarnishes it.

The app user interface is ok, not the greatest. But it also has a bug: the down arrow in top left corner used to minimise the book you're reading & expose the home page. Now it closes the entire app. Very annoying - to navigate to any other page than the playback page, e.g. my library or search, I have to do a long winded workaround. I thought it was a compatibility issue with my phone but I got a new phone & it has the same issue, except one time when it randomly worked.

Randomly stops playing after a few minutes, have to pressing pause and play to restart. Also noticed that player controls do not appear on lock screen anymore even though app has permission. Reinstall doesn't solve problems. Generally this is a poor app, UI is rubbish & accessing library is unituitive, these bugs are just the icing on the cake. (Samsung 22+)
