Latest reviews of takealot eReader app for iPhone and iPad

Great app
Just wish there was a browse and buy books option direct from the app but otherwise great
Crashes my iPad
First app ever that actually crashes my iPad every time I open my purchased ebook
Awful
Slow and clumsy. Takes ages to load books and cuts off the edges of the pages. Just rubbish.
Useless
Do not waste your time or money. Bought a book which I cannot even read because it is SO painfully slow you age while trying to turn the page. Really rubbish. This should be looked into and rectified.
An insult.
Forced to use this for a textbook. Absolute disgrace. Might just about work if you slowly read, do not attempt to search for anything unless you want to spend most of your time restarting the app. Rather publish in PDF and let me search the text. I dont just want my money back, I want compensation for being put through this experience.
