This is a wonderful app for students. Very useful to study and bookmark and take notes. Everything is so easy. But there's a bug. It's not letting us synchronise the books in the cloud. Though I have the latest version of FB reader premium app, is again asking me to update the FBreader app and diverting me to Google play store. Due to this bug, my books and the bookmarks, notes are all at risk. So please fix this soon and enable sync for better security.
Such a good app! I am a plus two Humanities student as well as an aspiring civil servant. But I am giving four stars only. I am not foolish to do like that. But I request to add options like text marking with any colour.(If we want to study a typical portion and wanna mark)/highlighting and writing options. It would be more useful. Download speed is good. Presentation is simply awesome! But this is my only suggestion.
Great app. For those who don't know we can highlight texts in this app(select the text and tap bookmark icon, leftmost icon).we can also add additional notes about selected text. This app also gives access to in-app dictionary(select the text and tap second icon from left, first time we have to download the dictionary data, app itself will refer to play store). Tap a word for a second to select it. Works on horizontal scrolling mode.
The app is good and very useful but it has lots of problems inside the app. It has all the contents we need but those contents cannot be made use of because it's impossible to download those books when the internet connection is slow. It starts showing server not responding. Then what's the use of it when we can't use it's content.
The ebooks are of great use and appreciable user interface. The only thing that hinders is that the images can't be resized or zoomed and images are too small to clearly see. Developers please have a look at the image zooming as maps and others images can't be clearly seen.
Many chapters from many books are missing. Example - class 11 th history book. After 3rd or 4rth chapter rest is not there. I was going to give 1 star but extra star is due to the great UI and the purpose it served in case of books where the chapters are not missing.
Serious issue with this app. As a national platform to learn, there are blunders found in this app. Admin to promptly pay attention towards e-books given in all lower classes. Text is presented in haphazard manner. Two different sentences are found colliding, mixing with each other which makes impossible to read hassle free. Also, this app is not working in my Tablet (Lenevo latest gadget).
The app is good and ncert reading experience is also good and comfortable, but it has few issues which i want to improve, please see that the app remembers the page layout we adjust to read, it is very annoying to adjust every time we load the app, and also in windows 10 app , the chapter closes automatically if the window size is adjusted, please look into these matters, this app is really helpful and has the potential to be one of the best education app.Thank you !
When a ebook is downloaded it does not show them in offline section. Earlier app used to work fine, but as I switched to Nokia Android phones, this problem has occurred. Have been trying to store a book offline to last 7 days, but even after complete download, I am not able to read it. Edit- bug fixed.
Most relevant and reliable app. I think there must be other options like to highlight or underline some content which makes study more enjoyable. Plz take notice of my request and update the latest version fast. I am super excited to take highlight imp points and experience the joy of reading ncert Thanks!
Good: the ability to switch from "page view" (PDF like, situatable for equation centric content as in physics/chemistry) to "continuous view" (epub like, suitable for literature-heavy content as in biology subjects) make the app really useful for *learning on the go* Bad: (this is a UX bug, might be fixed in future) doesn't allow me to view downloaded files in offline mode, defeating the very purpose of the app
I try to download pdf of class 6th to class 10th books but after downloading it doesn't show any file in my books, we can only see add symbol and if we download once again after clicking on add+ symbol then also no file will we downloaded. Very Poor experience and whatever is happening in the app this time it is useless for everybody. I hope the developers do something after seeing the reviews and the problem will be solved.
Wanted to rate it 4 star , but some problems which I would like to address are :- 1. We can't read Anything else while downloading something, i.e. download doesn't happen in background. 2. Annotation facility is only available or to bookmark facility is available only in one particular mode , not full screen mode!
Please do update the app . Improve its features as other e-readers have. The app is good and it is being very helful to me. It will be so helpful if u customize it's features. On of the important thing is Make the readers to zoom in or out instantly by pinching the screen .make this sure!
1)Class9:-chapter-proof in mathmatics Chapter-introduction to mathematical modelling Both chapter not downloading. 2) Application not running in lowest internet speed,this is government of India(G.O.I) initiative to reach masses with books but without the facility of application running with lowest internet speed it is of no use. 3) G.O.I should provide as many international books as possible both in English and hindi,as many research papers as possible to increase interest in public. Thank you
Excellent initiative by NCERT. The app is handy and also doesn't contain disruptive ads. In one word it's excellent. The only suggestion I would like to share is to make the reading window a bit modern. Otherwise everything is perfect.
The app is very easy to use & actually gives e-reading vibes. Plz add highlighters & pens to it so that we csn mark important things since we are out of books. Also, the page scrolling animation is quite irritating while the other scrolling methods are too simple to give it e-reading vibes. Plz also add a simple page scrolling animation like that of wattpad. Other than that, it's AmaJin, It also has dark mode. Contents from which we may choose what ch to read. Loved this app.
thanks ncert for ur efforts.. But few things need to be introduced:- 1. search option:- so that a word can be found without wasting much time in scrolling the pgs 2. staying on the same pg:- while switching b/w the scroll mode and turn-the-page mode the chapter starts from the beginning which is inconvenient 3. sticky note option:- include this one as well as color option too so that a line or imp word could be made as imps
Hey NCERT devs, here's some suggestions: Download books in background, so one can download and read simultaneously. Don't download same chapters twice in case of network failures, Option to download all books of a specific subjects in one go (like hit social science and download so you don't have to choose different subjects one by one). I hope you'll try to incorporate these!
Dear Educator, I am very glad you have worked out and created a single platform for the consolidated date for all learners.The problem I faced primarily is in the working of the App. The books once downloaded are not opening. The videos are not opening in full screen mode, as we need to concentrate, so full screen required. Please fix the bug.
experience was good but there is no option to highlight the word or sentence. I request to developers to fix this issue. one more thing I would like to suggest that to give the option of marking the page to continue reading from previous season.
There is a problem showing in downloading the books. Otherwise this app is good. Also add a tutorial like feature so one can understand the basic functionality of the app. It took me a few days to get that one controls the screen brightness using the left side of the screen.
very good initiative for student,i love the reading mode that allows the reader comfortably read the book.... one suggestion from my side please make an update so that all the downloaded books will be stored in external storage as it becomes very huge in size for phone which having low internatal storage and due to this makes phone very slow... please do it! thanks Jim
It would be great if draw option would be there So that we could write , encircle , underline the important things Or if there would be a highlighter But still it is very helpful to me 😃 I don't need to carry a book everytime to everywhere I would humbly request to add the feature in it It would really be great and amazing ☺
It is really a very nyc app. Initially I was too much impressed....but now the books are not downloading. ...each tym it shows "no response from server" . I reinstalled the app again and again. ...but nothing happens. ...plz fix this problem as soon as possible. I have shared the screenshot
Nice app to have all books at the same place with highlighting facility. Buy please upgrade a version in which there may sync facility so that bookmarks can be viewed on multiple devices. We have to highlight the same thing when use this app on another mobile.
I try to download pdf of class 6th to class 10th books but after downloading it doesn't show any file in my books, we can only see add symbol and if we download once again after clicking on add+ symbol then also no file will we downloaded. Very Poor experience and whatever is happening in the app this time it is useless for everybody. I hope the developers do something after seeing the reviews and the problem will be solved.
This is a really good app to refer NCERT text books. But it is not working since a few days. We were using this app in three devices. But now it is displaying 'something went wrong' in all the devices. We are not able to download new content.
Best app for those who require NCERT but cannot carry more books with them. Better than any PDF and more inclined towards providing actual look and feel like the textbook itself even in e-book is the best thing that I've found in ePathshala. Thanks to the developers. One more thing to be noted down, this app does not promotes any ads.
This app is an amazing tool for students and teachers alike. Many are asking the UI to be more better , but I think this is well developed and has an easy and simple interface. Very impressed with variety of books and other resources. I would say this is a great initiative taken by the government. It is an excellent application for downloading NCERT and other board's books if you don't have them. Overall, if this app could be described in one word : Outstanding!
