it works fine sort of I can read my novels, but the general UX is pretty bad. everything loads very slow, it just feels like a really slow web browser disguised as an app. The reader feels like it at least runs at 10 fps, just moving the page from left to right disturbs me because of how not-smooth it is. most icons are very square and the UI just doesn't feel modern. I'd love to see a rework and I'd love to use book walker in the future if they do, but in its current state I probably won't be.

This app isn't without its problems. Unlike with your bookshelf, you can't really organize your Audiobooks how you want. When listening to an Audiobook while on another App, the app has a tendency to crash/stop playing after a while. I'm now also experiencing how the App stops in between audiobook tracks. It plays intro, then I have to manually play the prologue/1st chapter that follows instead of it autoplaying. This happens both while on different apps, but also while my phone is locked.

App is ok when it works (can't dictionary lookup words especially via copy paste cause that's banned lol) and pretty trash when it doesn't. It's not suitable for offline use which is the main reason I need it since it frequently requires re-login. It's literally not working for me right now cause it won't let me sign on, preventing me from accessing $1000+ worth of content. 👎 not good.
