As an audiobook user, this is Painful to use! There so many improvements needed! Voice speed only changes by 15%, that is too much, just let us adjust the way we like it. i.e depending on the narrator, for me only a 5-10% adjustment is needed. Add book cover. Please label and divide chapters properly, it's a mess, especially for diversability users! I can't make titles go away, I remove them and they keep coming back. I honestly wish Cela used Libby. Also needs to work with Android Auto.

Would love to hear a sample of the voices before I pay 8.99 for one that I am not happy with. Also is there a way to highlight just one word to be read that would be very helpful for my child. I know that you can double click the word and it will say it but if you you double click that word and it would only highlight that word that would be visually helpful.

Hi, thank you for the suggestion. I have put it forward to the EasyReader development team, who will investigate whether this can be implemented. Check the What's New list in future EasyReader releases for further updates.

While this is super easy to use, there aren't many options for anything, which in itself isn't a problem, but you can't make the big obstrusive text to speech ui go away, and you can't choose individual pages to swipe through instead of scrolling. Definitely not the app for me — one of my main reasons for an ereader app is to lessen my eye strain while reading. Scrolling while reading makes it significantly worse.

Dear Ryan Dumas, thank you for your review we appreciate the feedback. Would you be able to send us a screenshot of the obstrusive text to speech UI that won't go away, to inapp@yourdolphin.com, please? We are sorry to hear that EasyReader is not the app for you, we will consider the suggestion for book swiping as a future idea.
