1★I used to really like this app but about a year ago they changed the unlimited reading to the same kind of deal as audible and I think audible is the better option out of the two. If they're going to be faithfully exactly the same now. What really pissed me off is they changed the format about 2 months after I bought the one year subscription and they wouldn't do anything. That was not the service I paid for.

3★I did the free trial on this app because I found it was more affordable than audible. (I got 3 unlocks for the price of 1 in audible). The audio options were good, and I easily chose my 3 books to listen to. I like the app for the most part. However, for the kind of genre I liked listening too they didn't have a lot of unlimited options. Also, using the app to look for unlimited options was confusing to me personally and like I mentioned before the list was very limited to what I liked.

3★I thought this was gonna be a better route than audio. Come to find out that after you read an "X" amount of books, you are cut off until the next month. You are only allowed like 8 audio books, maybe more, not sure cause one day you wake up and then poof, all your selected books are not available until your next month payment. They should be clearly marked some way. That way you know what titles to pick over others. My whole library of saved books is unavailable... for the next 3 weeks.

3★I just got this as a free trial to see if I could find an audible replacement. The playback for this app is awful. It will switch from the 1.2x I have selected to 1x speed all on its own. If your book isn't downloaded, it freezes all the time. You also don't get to keep the books you've unlocked if you ever cancel your membership. Your unlocks also don't roll over from month to month. That makes no sense. They've already been paid for.

1★It's EXTREMELY hard to find any of the "unlimited access" items. Everything I found/was recommended, aside from classics I get unlimited on Libby, needs an unlock. You shouldn't be advertising the unlimited catalog if this content isn't easily searchable and Clearly displayed in app. It also wasn't clear to me before I paid how little would be available bc of how things are shown. $12/month for 1 book I can't even access once I cancel is a lousy model. I regret spending the money to resub
