Great reader, with some issues!!

The optimized viewing has a great feel to it. But it doesn't properly load all PDFs. Quite a few will have problems (many typos, missing text) Otherwise it's a great reader. Five stars if it's fixed.

The best!

Love this app! Beautiful interface. Easy to use. Dark Mode for night reads! It's perfect.

Great, great idea with a couple of flaws.

This app is a great idea. However, I've noticed that the app will drop the first line of dialogue randomly when viewing in the more "readable" Reader mode. I had to switch between the PDF and the Reader modes to figure out why the first line of dialogue on one page didn't jibe with the last line on the previous page. When switching between the Reader mode and the PDF mode, the app will always take you back to the first page of the PDF or some random section of the script in the Reader mode. It would be helpful if, when switching between the two, the app would drop you into the page you were on in whichever mode you were switching from. I like how the app does away with superfluous information not pertaining to the actual reading of the script but it would also be super helpful if it did include the asterisks which indicate revisions. When I get a full revision, I'll usually skim through the stuff that hasn't been revised and key in on the stuff that's changed. Overall a great idea of an app that will only improve with time and revisions. I've suggested it to everyone I know that works in this business.

Typical pdf reader

The only unique tool it has in the character highlighting, but you have to pay $10 to use it, which is entirely too much when there are a million free off readers out there that actually have a ton more functionality than this. It's also crazy that the only way you can sync items in the cloud is after paying the $10 premium cost. So all in all its just an overpriced average off reader that locks basic functionality behind a costly paywall.

Add Mark-up Please

Great app. Please add Mark-up for support of the Apple Pencil. Would save me a whole lot of paper! Please, 5 stars when it gets updated.

Probably the script reading app

Segosa

It's A very useful script(screenplays) reading app, it formats the screen to your device and syncs to different devices your position. Two things missing to make it an almost perfect app are: No search function in app, or in iOS in general. So when you have many scripts it can be daunting finding a script specially that you can't rearrange them as well by date or name or format, etc. And, the other thing missing is to open or make it easy to open the last script read. It can be frustrating when you have to put the app down and come back to not remember or find the last script you were reading.

Best way to read

Sekt Tay

This is now my favorite way to read screenplays, but needs a note function. I've tried taking notes on a separate notepad app by switching back and forth, but the script reverts to p1, which makes it unusable. This app makes screenplays so easy to read and would be perfect if I could add notes as I'm reading directly on the script- and then later be able to export a list of notes with their corresponding page numbers.

One star is too much for the free version

You can only have 4 files in your library , ONLY FOUR I like the style and appearance but it was a huge pain in the neck to see that you cant have more than 4 files, dissapointing...

Simple features missing

Please make creating customs folders easier. Please add feature to add folders from Dropbox or bulk import.

Crashes often. Decent when it works.

Q.Ledbetter

I used to use this app often, but it crashes too frequently. When it does crash, it is inoperable for a long while, even when I power cycle my phone. It doesn't happen every time, but often enough for me to search for something better. Otherwise fine, I suppose.
