a decent app – ReadMe! (BeeLine & Focus) Review

It has a few shortcomings, but by far it is the best spritz client for ebooks that I tried! Things that require attention: 1. while reading with spritz the app occasionally starts losing track of what it is showing and pages start jumping in the background. The further down the book I am the more frequent jumps. 2. Once the jumps begin, if I dismiss spritz there's no getting the magnifying glass until I rewind to where the glitches started, or read until the end of the chapter. 3. Every once in a while it's impossible to read until the end of chapter, because the last few sentences did not fit on the page, and the next page immediately behind the new chapter. With three books I read over the last few weeks all of them had these issues, so it definitely is not an random problem. Few things that could use some developer's love: - beeline needs to be manually toggled off if we want to use spritz. It is unclear why, as the two features appear to be orthogonal. - it is pretty hard to upload new books and this is the major downside. There are several ways listed, yes, and those that would make things a little easier are already no longer functioning (iTunes) - the app offers no free, limited trial (like, say, 5 pages to interruption). I don't mind, being registered, but this seems to be a common theme in other reviews. - the look is fancy, but not necessarily appealing. I would certainly appreciate minimalistic, yet clean view instead with fewer clicks to open the book. I am generally happy with this app. Beats many other readers with really good features and simplicity. I hope the studio makes it even better in the future!
