"This was a fun app for me to share with my students until it became a limited use for free app. I am a librarian at rural title 1 school and can`t afford what they want for a subscription. It is also hard to find specific titles, the search engine is very picky and will tell you they don`t have that book even when you know they do."

"This app did not have any of the books I own. It seems like you have to have the books they have on the app before you can make use of the recording function... you only get 5 free books a month and it seems like after that you have to buy everything else. I`m not impressed."

"The app doesn`t work very well. Constantly having to repeat sentences or words. I have to hold the phone to my mouth and speak very loudly which is difficult with a toddler and book in my hands and also defeats the purpose of quieting down for bedtime. We end up paying more attention to the app instead of the book. Now they want to charge to use it. I put up with all the glitches when it was free, but it`s definitely not worth paying so much for it. Update: app has only gotten worse."
