Not sure what the hype is about – Bookshelf Review

I have two textbooks that are both not functioning properly on my iPad Pro (3rd gen). It’s impossible to tell what page I’m on exactly because of how the scroll function is working. I do not have continuous scroll enabled. When I try to swipe left and right between pages it changes chapters instead. This happens in both books. According to the chat support agent I accessed through the app, things were working fine for them. So it’s not a publisher issue with a format they sent to Vitalsource. It’s an issue with the programming in the app. I’m in an intense graduate program that requires constant reading every day. I budget my time according to the number of pages I need to read each day in each book. This malfunction of the app prevents me from doing precisely that. I have to guesstimate which page I’m on which becomes highly frustrating. Others may not see this as a big deal, which is fine. But if the app was doing what it was supposed to do in the first place it wouldn’t be an issue at all. Won’t be ordering any more books through this service.
