Booksprout

I have tried nine separate times to verify my email to start reading a book. It sent me the link and told me to click on it to verify my email. It just sent me to the website where it did not let me login or do anything. This app sounds amazing, but the execution does not seem all too favorable.

This is a poorly written app. How did Apple allow this app to be offered by its Store? After entering my email address correctly (twice) I did not get a confirmation email. The bigger issue is that it is difficult to navigate through. In order to move back to the page, after entering your email address, you are unable to go to the main page to allow you to select titles to review. In order to reach the main page, you have to the swipe the page up and close it and then go back to the page. Also, it doesn’t even allow you to select the categories of books you wish to review. Extremely rudimentary and poorly developed.

If I could give this app 0 stars, I would. It doesn’t keep your place when you read on the app, even if you bookmark your spot. It won’t allow you to email a copy of the books because the files are too large. The requests time out before you can email it to yourself. If you choose to download it, it doesn’t pop up or anything. It won’t even let me click on support. The actual website isn’t any better.
