Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Beautifully organized

    By The Weeping Balladeer (Pcmac user)

    This is my second reading of all of the app's plays, and so much easier than my first reading in print form. Easier to maneuver around, get definitions rather than from annotations, stop and then pick up where I left off, and especially easier to schlep around! Not a small thing. If anyone seeing this is contemplating reading most or all his plays, this is the way to do it, and best with the Pro version.
  • The mother of all necessities

    By Paddlergurl (Pcmac user)

    This is the most valuable resource for students of today. Up to date and always changing for the better, this is a go to for all my students - a generation that lets their fingers do the walking before ever touching a physical book. It allows for spontaneous readings and explorations of ideas and actions. Can’t think of anything that would make this better.
  • An essential tool for any teacher or student

    By Wilfredbrimley69 (Pcmac user)

    I found myself using this frequently only minutes after downloading- smooth searches and nice features- I am teaching Macbeth for the first time and am learning the play along with my students- it is nice to have this as a resource as I feel my way through the text (and it makes me look like I know more than I do!)
  • Regularly updated

    By Starbird43 (Pcmac user)

    How do you update 400 year old content? With extra features! Additions have included line numbers, full character names, notes, vocabulary for obscure words, ability to highlight lines spoken by particular characters (great for actors) and facsimiles of first folio texts. More additions keep appearing for free!
