Summary

This app receives overwhelmingly negative feedback, primarily due to widespread issues with unauthorized billing and extreme difficulty in canceling subscriptions, with many users alleging scam-like practices. Technical problems are also frequent, including connection failures, app crashes, and documents failing to display or download correctly, with specific connectivity issues reported on the iPhone 16 Pro Max. While a small number of users appreciate the app's extensive document database for unique content like old magazines and books, the predominant experience is frustration with functionality, customer support unresponsiveness, and concerns over data security.
