Short: use ANY other service!!! Taking time out of my busy study schedule to write a terrible review because of this terrible app and desktop app. It constantly crashes(multiple times in a row). It will regularly stutter when loading pages. It will load the wrong page and you won't know until you need to highlight something, then you'll try and try to highlight only to discover that you're on an entirely different page and possibly entirely different section than what is showing in the corner.

The audio feautre has improved, but it is still off in pronunciation and reads off punctuation and references. Reader does play when the app is not open, but will randomly stop. The app used to have a feature where you could pause the audio without unlocking your device, but this has since disappeared. You now have to open the app to stop or start audio.

Pros: text to speech. Con: The biggest frustration I have with this app is the chapter selection on the table of contents. Example: I select chapter 14, and it goes to 13. I try again and it keeps going to 13. It takes several tries to get to the right chapter, or I have to give up and scroll through the pages.
