Access is worth it
By trollison (Pcmac user)
Small inconveniences aside having access to this material is invaluable. Wish list is that it would enable reading turned 90 degrees. At least on my iPad it doesn't reformat when turned. And maybe this would an aside to the app but sure would be nice if this could some how be made compatible with Kindle which much lighter and easier to carry around than an iPad. I should add I am not an academic so I am only using the app to read, never uploading anything. At least I am able to save material to iBooks for collecting and organizing.

I love the idea, but not app needs some work
By clarkparker (Pcmac user)
Great idea and an ambitious start, but the app is severely flawed. When I try to follow a scholar, the interaction seems to trigger an event and it will temporarily tell me I’m following this person, but if I leave that profile and come back I can see that the relationship has not persisted. This and a couple of other little bugs are the reasons I only rate it at 3 stars.
I absolutely love what this could be and I hope the kinks get worked out and this app sees a lot of much needed attention from the developers.

Detailed historical information the studies of experts
By chenely (Pcmac user)
I have only read one paper so far and found it to be one of the most interesting detailed description of individuals and events that almost wrecked a powerful State. Excellent work very interesting

Request for landscape mode !
By 陈三恪 (Pcmac user)
I use iPad Pro for most reading works. I think this book is a good tool to search papers. However, it does not have the landscape mode, which is very inconvenient for me. I don’t think it is a difficult thing to do. Please make it more easier to use.
