If I get distracted, have to put my phone down, take a phone call, or open another app, this app defaults to its main page. It's especially frustrating when, like now, I found a great looking book but had to let my dogs out and when I come back the book I found is no longer on the screen and I can't remember the title, author, or how I found it in the first place.
Downloaded the app, signed into my account then I tried to search the website, after approx 10 attempts all I got repeatedly was "check you have a Internet connection/try again later, etc". Will give it a try tomorrow and if I'm still unable to view this website I'll be uninstalling this app.
I am so sad that allromanceebooks llc shut down. I didn't see the email that gave 4 days to dowload and backup all books from the site. And I lost all my books. I did not have them backed up. I am so very sad about it. I reread all the time. I had so many books and was a loyal user of the site. I loved it. The free books after evey 10 books. It had so many perks and so many books by so many great authors. A lot of authors became famous just by being on this site and the easy accessibility of the site. I really hope it comes back. And I hope that someone contacts me to tell me how to get my books that I brought back. Over all this site was better and more affordable than Amazon and Barnes & Nobles and carried more authors, genres and books. I know because I have those and more. I really miss it.
I have downloaded this only because I could not open the books, downloaded directly to phone, by my favorite phone reader (no problem if file downloaded via PC). The only positive part - access to account books. Minuses: don't keep zoom level, cannot turn pages using sound button, long load, cannot turn on the display of total/remaining pages in some not disturbing corner, cannot switch to full screen, no autoscroll, forgets login. Very basic and uncomfortable reader.
Very happy you designed your own reader app. In my brief use I've enjoyed it. I took off one star because in the app during checkout it will not show me how many purchases to go before getting a free book. When I switch to the full site view, it does show it as always.
I enjoy having the books I purchase through ARE easily available without having to use several different apps. My only real issue so far (which unfortunately is a big one for me) is that I can't download/access any of the books to my ARE Reader that are in my ARE site library which I've previously purchased & downloaded using a different app (ie. Google Books, Kindle, etc.) That's a lot of books & I really want to be able to reread many of them. That's the only reason at this point for only 3 stars.
I found out too late site has shut down and I lost all my ebooks. There is no way to get my books and the money I spendt. I did tried to reach out to google play to let them know about this site. I see it is still listed in google play. I did what the lady told me to contact this website my email was returned. So, i am out of books. I spendt some years with this site and i enjoy my ebooks. I am sad about this.
Log in. Kept saying my passwords didn't match even though I can see it while I'm typing and I know they matched. Now when I tried to start over again, it says my email is already in use. Frustrating!
Hoot! Hoot!.. I've been waiting for this where I dont have to use my browser in phone to search in your website (coz I have some difficulties using my phone) but to search directly from the reader. Hoot! Hoot!. One suggestion - could you add one setting where i can set how fast or slow to turn the pages. Nevertheless, it's good.
The app was easy to download and install. The book I am reading is always the first on the list and the app retains my last page read regardless of whether or not I use the bookmark feature. Definitely a plus when I get interrupted by a phone call. Now all my books are with me to read when I am stuck in a line or waiting or whatever!
All of a sudden, this wanted to open up all online pdf files! There doesn't appear to be a way to set it to not do this. Since I do a lot of research using online pdfs, this caused issues. I had to uninstall it just so I could view an online document.
I like the app and all but I spent 1 hour trying to figure out how to read the rest of the series i purchased. The books are in my library downloaded and I can't read them .if I will have to be frustrated every time I buy a book that is not what am looking for .thank you very much.
Loved this eReader, but can't use it since ARe shut down. Had to uninstall because I lost nearly all the books that were loaded prior to ARe closing. Glad I backed up everything I bought! Very sad to see the, go.
It accepted my log in info and showed me six books to choose from. Great! I go to use the "get books" and it all of a sudden can not find my email and password in the system. WTH. When I am actually able to view a bigger selection of books than six my rating of this app will change. I am not going to register again just to have my info lost all over.
Other than wishing for the ability to search by key word, title or at or within My Library, I loved this app. but I have since realized that it is less searchable than I thought and way too slow. I will stick with the website
Doesn't always download titles, or covers. Can be difficult to search for books in library or site. Shuts down. Annoying really
Will not open. Installs just fine, but when I try to open it just shows me an error message. This is my second time trying to use this app. I shop at the website, it would be nice if I could use the app.
My library only had 6 books. So disappointed with that. I thought the selection would have been way more
I like this app I really do, but sometimes I wish there was a app for Windows 10, so I can use my computer. Please help.
The words are way to small I literally have to put my face to my phone to read but it has really good books
I was happy that the site got a reader, but it downloaded empty files, don't always download the covers, and most of time I just get an error trying to read something. I hope it gets better soon. Sorry, I deleted the app.
This app is lacking. Nothing like kindle app. I don't like the way it works or looks. I will keep using my kindle app. The ARE website is still great and I purchase from them often!
Absolutely the best selection of books I've found. AND an excellent selection of free books! The only problem I've noted is missing book covers.
If you really like to read about stories of all kinds that end up pretty good at getting the characters good or bad, to liking or loving each other. This is the place to fulfill that want.
There are plenty of free books costing nothing but i cant seem to open them in the app to read them .i signed up with my email but as for the payment method sign up im having some trouble since its my first time i dont know how to fill in the form please help
I've had this app more than a month and my store doesn't work I can load books I can't even access the store I've commented on this but I've gotten no reply or any advice on how to fix this problem
I wish it had let me pick my free books, even if it had been from a limited selection. A few of these dont look like books i will enjoy and thats a bit disappointing. I also wish it had a text-to-speech feature. Then i could read while im doing other stuff.
