    My book keeps getting blank pages and freezing the app. I have tried everything to fix it. How frustrating.
  • Bubble Zoom doesn’t work on iOS 26.3

    Bubble Zoom no longer works on comics in iOS 26.3 for me. Very frustrating to deal with as customer support from the iOS app sends you to Android Customer Support. Then they tell you that you need to have an Android device to get support.
  • Cannot search for uploaded books in library

    Borderline unusable app if you have even a modest collection of books! I get a “Network Error” page whenever I try to search for an uploaded book in my library. My network connection is confirmed functional, and the search tool works for samples I have downloaded from the store, just not for uploaded books in my library. I can download and open these books but am unable to search for them because of this incorrect error page. Please fix this, it’s such a stupid bug.

    Horrible app. Buffering never stops. Have to reset my phone or turn it on and off just to pick up where I left off.
  • App is in maintenance mode

    Google has abandoned this app. It’s currently sitting in maintenance mode. Don’t believe me? Check out the update notes. So this app lacks any modern features! If you’re used to Apple Books or Kindle/Audible, stay far away from this app. It will break in CarPlay, it’ll mess up bookmarks, highlights, etc.

    For the love of god, fix the bug with your bookmarks. It's been going on for years; make a bookmark an it either disappears or ends up on random pages after a while.
  • Google products don’t work together…

    Google disables its own products so they don’t work together.
  • Audio isn’t the same as the book

    I like to read the book along with listening to the audio book, and it seemed that the audio was not synced to any of the words in the book. There were several added in paragraphs, and it just genuinely made it hard to read along with the book and only found this out after paying $15.
  • Doesn’t allow text to speech

    I’m so tired of these big corporations gatekeeping and preventing little tools from being used. “Text to speech is not available”
  • One star only

    It is ridiculous that books cannot be read unless connected to internet. It is poor service that books do not sync between accounts.
