  • The ads
    Are so intrusive they block action from top quarter of a pod screen so you can't play the game properly. Ok I know that you get ads with freebs, but when they block off the app action its stupid advertising. Now there's no way I will ever look at the advertised game, let alone consider purchase - probably won't bother with this app anymore either.

  • Bomb upgrade
    Just ran latest upgrade on minipad. Seized up on Store screen. Can't closedown restart on minipad like on pods, supposed to reset on close but doesn't. If I install reinstall lose everything but books till I resync with comp. But then can't use it anyway. Please fix.

  • Impressive!
    One of the top reader apps. Now I can borrow and read from my local library, download books onto either my comp or pod, without having to traipse into town with associated parking problems. The app works well, keeps your place in multiple books whether ebook or audio. Gives pages left in chapter as well as pages in ebooks, unobtrusively at bottom of reading page. And when you've finished - or it wasn't what you thought - it will delete And 'Return' it so you don't have an unwanted book cluttering up your library account till the loan period expires. It also keeps track of how many days left on the loan period (up to 21days for some) of each book too. That's really handy. There's a separate also free Overdrive for direct computer download too. Only downside is that my library system has WMA audio books as well as MP3s which I can't download onto my Mac {sigh}. But that's the library system not an app fault. Nice one Adobe!

  • Once upon a time
    There was this most excellent book reader app called Stanza. Its available library contained thousands more books than could be read in many lifetimes. But alas this was indeed far too good to last. At the end of November 2011 its owner pulled the plug on their app, announced they would no longer update and closed off access to the wonderous catalogue. Even their complaints website is no longer closely monitored - according to the note at the top of screen. R.I.P. Stanza. We will miss you.

  • Hey! We have quakes too!
    In NZ, but you would never guess from this app. And now, today, its given up altogether - no notifications, and won't even open - just blinks off. Its had some trials and tribulations recently which have eventually been fixed, presumably when enough users complain. But the latest problem with crash, crash, crash, and no local info are getting exasperating. We have earthquakes too!
