I just redownloaded this app and got a notification that it will not work with future versions of iOS. This is a superb app that deserves to be updated.
Very effective method for memorization
jcwords
The memorization method used is effective and enjoyable. I am on my third poem, and remembering the first two quite well. I would increase it to five stars if the poetry selection was larger or if it were possible to add poems. I would like to memorize more of Gerard Manley Hopkins, for example, and would find this method valuable for doing so. The app comes with a handful of poems, and there are two reasonably priced collections you can purchase if you choose. I purchased both, as Penguin's memorization method is unique and easy to use. Another reviewer complained that the poems are in the public domain should thus be free, but what you are purchasing is individualized instruction for guided memorization of each poem. It's worth it if you are actually interested in memorizing. If you just want to read poems, get a book;-).
Needs 64 bit update for IOS 11

This app won't even run on IOS 11 without being updated to 64 bit. I'd be willing to buy some of the poems, but not unless the app us updated. Otherwise i'd be flushing my money down the toilet.
Add more poems!

I love this app, and I have used it to learn several poems already. However, I would like to see some new poems added and be given an option to add more poets and poems of my choice.
A rare, "Jobsian" app
RQFunk
Steve Jobs wanted his products to be intuitive and beautiful. This app helps memorize poetry in an intuitive way while presenting the poems and a beautiful background. Jobsian indeed. This is one of my favorite apps and I do hope that the company that put it together will see fit to upgrade it to iOS 11 or I shan't be able to upgrade my phone to iOS 11. Please, dear people, do so!
Great App under iOS 10.3.3 (32 bit) but there is currently NO support for iOS 11.0 (64 bit)!
Quilibet
Please update so iOS 11 users can go back to memorizing poems again!
Love the App! Please Update!

I love this app. And want to get more of the packs for more poems as they come out. Please update the app so I can continue using it!
