Gigabytes of downloaded content lost!

Dantego

After I spent days downloading content in the app, along comes an update that wiped everything out! Now I have to download everything from a scratch.


Downloads are not accessible offline.

Varus IndirsGame

Isn't "offline access" the reason for this app. After selecting "read" to open or access a book, the app performs a download before opening the book. But the download is useless!! It is not accessible offline. Attempts to access a downloaded book after a tablet is offline results in the statement, "Internet access is needed." Isn't the entire reason for this app, for "offline access."


Works great

Bostonaudi

Love having Safari both on my iPhone and iPad, works beautifully on both.


Love the product but the reading experience isn't good

Gregory Long

App is slow, and page position isn't maintained if the app is rotated (orientation can't be locked) or the font is changed.


Not user easy to find content

Please fix Iowan

The search capabilities are very basic making it difficult to do a detailed filter. No option to search for audiobooks.


Good app but page margins are too small on iPad

sushantbhosale

The app itself is great. Easy to search, see my queue and download. The page margins however are terribly narrow. There needs to be a way to adjust the margins like the browser does on their website. Reading gets harder on iPad Mini 4 with such narrow margins, should extend at least another 30px-45px on left and right.


Search & Percent

The search is basic at minimum, but biggest feature missing for me is the percentage of completion of the book I am reading.


Safari Queue

RetiredPilot

From the standpoint of doing research, Safari Queue is second to none and simple to operate. You enter your question and immediately are presented with numerous sources. Quickly look over the short reviews and either move them to a queue for more in depth investigation or, download a full publication. This program makes the sometimes laborious process of research fun, again... Even if I didn't require large quantities of data and support, this program provides anyone with a question the path to an answer, regardless of how shallow or deep one wishes to go.

Great service and this APP works well. Only complaint is it didn't pull down the queue I built up using the desktop browser.


Good start but needs refinement

RSD31

Clean modern design but still needs polish. The queue I built on the desktop took 20+ seconds to appear, so I almost concluded the app was broken because there was no loading indicator to show that my queue was being retrieved. Also, I preferred the paging in the Safari to Go app and it would be nice to have a settings option to use paging vs continuous feed.
