  • Is this a joke?

    By Tomcleveland (Pcmac user)

    No part of this app works with VoiceOver. How can an app called "this app for the blind" not work even a little bit for blind people. This almost makes me think this is an attempt to scam money from whoever supported the development of this application.
  • Great app!!

    By Zakatotyyyyyyrrrrrrrgu (Pcmac user)

    คือเคยอ่านหนังสือจบไปเล่มนึงแล้วก็ไม่มีปัญหาอะไร แต่พอจะอ่านเล่มสอง เพิ่มหนังสือแล้ว แต่กลับไม่ขึ้นในfeed หาหนังสือไม่เจอ refreshก็แล้ว แต่ก็หาไม่เจอ ระบบค่อนข้างช้า เข้าไปเสิร์ชก็เจอบ้างไม่เจอบ้าง ตรงที่ให้กรอกข้อมูลเบอร์โทรก็กรอกได้แค่3 ตัว กดยืนยันก็ขึ้นว่าระบบยังไม่เปิดรับการยืนยันตัวตน... ก็โอเคพยายามจะเพิ่มหนังสือใหม่แต่ก็โหลดช้า ทั้ง 3g และ wifi
