This app does not open after downloading a book. It is also unresponsive and makes it virtually unusable. When you can use it, it is awesome. Unfortunately, don't even bother with it.

Can't highlight or Make notes, and sometimes I experience sync issues with my new book purchases showing up. Please add highlight & note features. I use both options on my tablet all the time. Would love to have it on my phone also.

Amazon, get your stuff together. You're losig loyal customers with this travesty of an app. For all the users here are a list of issues (and convenient fixes if I've found them): 1. The crash problem MOST users are having when trying to open books, is usually due to those books already having been started on another device. The app crashes whenever forced to sync a book that has never been opened in the app. It will open a book if the book was opened in the app before any other device. 2. Missing paragraphs. Simple formatting errors. Easy fix: rotate your screen to the opposing orientation then rotate it back. The text that was missing will be there. 3. Misc: sync times, highlighting, dictionary, etc etc. All improvements in this stuff has more than likely been abandoned in favor of the Windows 8 release. I'd like to hope that isn't the case but let's be realistic.

This app has been driving me insane. It crashes every few weeks and will not open again. I have to uninstall it, restart my phone, reinstall it, and if I'm lucky it will let me sign back in without crashing. Get your *** together Amazon. This is getting ridiculous.

This app sucks. I tap the app on my lumia 710 windows phone and it doesn't open just sends me back to my home screen. I have to uninstall then reinstall it, go to my archives and redownload all the books. Other than that I don't have any problems...

Crashes constantly on my lumia 900. The first 2 books I tried to open both each immediately crashed to the app launcher. But it did open the 3rd book I tried, so it's not totally non-functional

2012-09-09 05:33 sleeperBot777
Seems to have a serious issue with skipping words or even several sentences when turning pages... Perhaps because I'm not using the default font size? (this has been an issue with the app for at least 9 months on my old Titan and now my Titan 2, but I have yet to see a fix for it). Does not start from my last saved location on my iPad. Please fix!

Routinely hoses so that it won't launch. Uninstall & Reinstalling is the only solution I have found. :(

Works okay. Always seems to be busy doing something in the background though, slowing things down. Crashes when opening some books I purchased from Amazon. I really hope Amazon will give this app some love and fix the bugs.

The first book I read in this fast and attractive app was a fine experience, so I bought more. The second book has format problems (indentations) and loses paragraphs from one screen to the next. Only by repeatedly changing font size can I read the missing lines, which gets old fast. Also, Whisper Sync does not work well -- my place is lost between sessions and between devices like my tablet, despite the app saying it is up to date.

Not very good. Cuts off words depending on font size and you can't highlight text to make a note of it for later.
