Bard Mobile Rating.

Melvin Smitherman

I am thoroughly enjoying this app. I love the update version with the sleep timer. I especially like the addition of stopping at the end of chapters! I don't know what ya'll can do now to make this a better app!


Great app but there are problems

CODE CUTTER

Great app but there are problems on the iPad. I keep getting an error that says: File failed to extract. The only fix is to delete the app and download it between each group of books that you download. Not fun since it erases the books your reading when you do the reinstall. Also, there is no web page dedicated to the maintenance of the app. That means no where to tell the developer what is going. iPad 2 most recent iOS version.

OK, so when I get into my account it says I have exceeded my limit however when I go to the website doesn't tell me I've removed


Unable to browse by subject

Azarry

Hi, whenever I go to the Bard site using this app and try to browse by subject, the app freezes. I tell it to browse fantasy, and then hit go, and it will not bring up any results. So I'm stuck either searching by title or name, or looking at recently added books. I haven't tried browsing by author or title yet. Either way, please fix this. I'm using an IPad mini2. Thanks.


Suggestion

Tiny kittie

I'd like to suggest it would be pretty cool if you could see or listen to books where you left off on multiple devices instead of having to start over and not see your books and your wish list anymore it would just be pretty awesome if you could listen to the book where you left off crossed devices so that way you don't have to re-download the books are east of us if you have more than one device


Bug not fixed

Diva Yva

I actually love this app. I have read over 60 books in the last six months. I wasn't aware of a bug which was supposedly fixed on June 8. I did not experience any problems with prior to this update. Today, my app completely stopped working and I can't listen to anything. Please get this fixed!


Could use improvement

Shawn McCue

This app is pretty accessible. Signing in. However, it is not great when you are trying to download.trying to download it downloads so slow and you cannot download without Wi-Fi


Mixed review

I love BARD mobile. It gives me access to books at times when using the full size player isn't feasible... Like when I'm exercising or shopping. A bug that was in the original program is back in the latest update. The screen stays on and uses a lot of battery. Also I cannot use any other app while listening to a book. So when my transit app sends a notification that my bus is coming or my husband texts me, it interrupts the book and I have to manually click on the app and start button to resume reading (BARD does not respond to voice commands) you fixed this once, I have faith you can do it again ???


Great with Some Issues

BrightHalo

I really like the bookmark and incriminating fast forward systems. Overall I like the bard app but there are some issues: 1. Books don't seem to download in when the app is in the background. 2. Weird XML missing required elements error that seems to cause no noticeable problem. 3. Clunky add book to wishlist and go to wishlist to download setup.
