Hello, reading txt and pdf files appears to be inaccessible. In case nobody have reported such bugs to the developer, I can do it.

It takes team work and the more we have the better iw will have for all of here. Let us know of your adventure with the developer. We love to hear the results of your e-mails!

#4 Not all its cracked up to be

Submitted by Katie on 24 July, 2012 - 01:07.

I have just downloaded this app. From what I see so far, this app isn't as great as advertized. First, it is not easy to use with voice over.The app seems clutterd, and the screen never refreshes when you tap on something. Also, How do you use this with wifi?
