DONT BUY
Crashes my computer every single time I open and wont function at all. I would like a refund.
United StatesThe worst app ever
I pay $15 for this app and doesn’t work, its a fraud
United StatesNot a bad app, but reading speed is too slow.
A nice idea and good app with 2 exceptions: 1. The maximum speed for reading is TOO slow. There should no NO limit to reading speed. 2. The controls are too big and obstruct the PDF itself. There should be a way to collapse or hide the controls.
United StatesLong Term Member…disapointed with iOS complement
In the past VBooks worked with Ipad, IPhone, and MacOS once purchased. However, now to get past page 1 on a tablet or phone you have to buy a voice—that is already part of IOS??!! Its better to add the doc to a PDF and have the iPhone read it. The voices should be utilized that are “enhanced” with inflection - the list is out of date as is the engine itself. You can highlight almost ANY app on ANY PLATFORM and right click and have it read to you. This company is abusing a feature already included within MacOS/and iOS, and not only that, giving you less inflection, less options, an out of date voice list, and is no longer compatable across platform. The only way I can think of is that the app although it has the same name has different versions as I can “restore purchase” but have less or no use for it on the iOS Platform. Its dissapointing from an App I used daily.
United StatesRemove this app from the store.
Does not work and couldn’t find any support. This app should be removed from the store, $15 is absurd for an app that doesn’t work.
United States'Version 1.4 (5)’ is a disaster
I used the previous version of this software extensively. I drive a lot, and make productive use of the time by listening to documents. When this latest release came out, a large percentage of PDF’s I need to read were all of the sudden no longer readable in vBookz. The version available as an option to update to, from the app store recently is 'Version 1.4 (5)’ - now looking at this page that lists the latest version as ‘Version 1.2.2’ makes me wonder even more what’s going on with vBookz. I’m stuck with this ‘1.4 (5)’ and I wish I could revert back to a prior version, whether it be 1.2.2 or whatever actually works. There’s a major problem with the last update: I have several examples of PDF’s that I know for a fact were readable in the last version that now either won’t even open into this version, or if they do it doesn’t read them. I wish I had a backup of the prior version. Now I’m searching for a competitor.

it use to work great until today, out of the blue the highlighting glass stopped working. No fixable solution, so now it is not functional. This needs a fix ASAP!
