The apps is useless just wasting bundles you need purchase contents
I have not been able to use this application because setting is not displayed and ways tried to open the application proved abortive
I havent seen any topic my first time to open it and was not allowed to read and assess this app and forced to rate it because without rating dont even think to peep at this book/app 😅😅😅
Great app..but no means of purchasing method.how can i get the full content?
Wonderful source of knowledge and information
It's more of gaining knowledge and application for the good of humanity.
Keeps on saying download paused download resumed...
Clear and concise.
good info. disappointed print edition did not include app. Continually asks for me to rate it 5 stars even as I rated it 4 stars. Popups every few days even though I spent $60 on this. Search is really limited; hard to navigate table of content vs index searches. Unexpectedly shuts down at times. Lags about 1/5 openings. edit1: 2 stars now edit2: 1 star
