There's no side-by-side or continuous views, so only one page is visible at a time. There's no easy way to jump back and forth between a couple pages. The table of contents and chapter contents aren't even hyperlinked (at least in the books I've looked at). There's definitely no good way to switch between a couple different books because the loading screens can last for ages (maybe if offline reading was available that wouldn't be such an issue). The text is grainy and difficult to read for any more than a couple paragraphs. This is all from using the app for an hour; other reviewers have even more issues that presented after extended use. And the web app is only marginally better. Then publishers wonder why file sharing of pdf copies is so prevalent... Make an app that people WANT to use! It really won't be that hard; just pay a little attention to the feedback. IDK the financial agreement b/t CS and the publishers, but regardless of who's paying whom, the publishers are losing here.

This app will be golden with offline reading mode!!

I just got a new windows tablet and I was disappointed in the windows version of this app. I was sad to find out I could not read offline easily and also navigating through the my textbooks is more difficult.

Searching is inconsistent and incomplete. Using the hard copy of the book is more useful than using this app due to the lack of ability to search.

Does not always open.

Doesn't have the same functions as the iOS or android apps. Not very to highlight or take notes. Not sure why this app was released given the limitations of using it.

This app needs those common feature. Hopefully you'll have this feature available by next semester or I'm going to have to find a provider who has it. Excellent app otherwise.

Every time I open the app each page says that I am in preview mode even though I have purchased the book. Also, I don't see a way in which to sign out and sign back in
