Reviews for BookFunnel

I've had nothing but good thing about using this app the interface is easy and it's a great way to read your promos and who doesn't like free books ...

While the application runs smoother than any other e-reading app I've tried, I'd like to suggest some of the features the other apps have that this one doesn't seem to. Highlighting and annotations/notes: really helpful for reviewers. Proper page count: I'd like to see how many pages into a book I'm reading with a page count of the overall novel. Otherwise, no issues so far.

I usually got my audio books from the library. Most times the books I want I have to wait weeks for. the authors on Book Funnel are new; I really like them. I like helping authors instead of the middleman. I like that you can read one book after the other.

great app. able to just easily log in and read. only problem is certain lines in the book go off the screen and there is no setting adjustment to fix the issue so. turning the screen sideways allows me to view the entirety of each line but limits me to roughly a paragraph at a time to be seen. I don't think I need to express how horrible it is to try to read and understand something when you only see a portion at a time.

I love... but glitches... I love buying audiobooks from authors instead of Amazon or something... but it glitches often and loses my place or shuts down for no reason... I keep hoping for an update or more consistent listening. but some of my favorite books from authors I love are here, so I am keeping my bookfunnel app.

4 days, several tries in app and on computer, and an email to help, still haven't received a password/validation email to create an account and access the books I bought through Facebook (yes I checked the spam folder too. Nothing there either). This app sucks. I guess I have to go to the authors of the books I purchased days ago and request refunds which I probably won't be able to get because they're digital. So about $50 wasted to learn this app is garbage.

The program works great. The greatest thing since sliced bread! I cannot tell you how many GREAT books I have been given for free by authors. It allows you to read many different genres of books to see if you like them. It let's you try early books of authors and realize that you want to read every thing they every write, great program!!!!!

I only downloaded this app because it was the only way to get the audiobook of an author i enjoy. And I would never use it again if I had another option this app fails on every possible level it has flaws that I did not even realize were possible until I experienced them on here. Audio books do not play correctly the app refuses to close progress is not saved there are so many problems I literally do not have enough characters to outline them. App has bugs I did not know what possible.

Reading in this app and changing page appearance no problem. Problem, having to reset every time you open your book. Example: I prefer to read with a black background and white lettering. I have to reset these preferences every time I open the book. Can you highlight favorite passages or take notes? No If you open the book in a different app then those functions are available through that app. My one wish is that when you open the app it would open to the library instead of enter code page.

Used to be great, now not so much! This used to be a seamless app that worked in conjunction with email and other apps. Just use the link, go back to what you were doing. Since the latest update, I can't even close it without closing everything else. The back button doesn't work it just sits there. And I have to instruct it to put my book in my kindle, instead of it automatically doing it as it used to. Crazy! Please go back to previous version! It was awesome, and I'll give it 5 stars again!!

Well, I'm sorta just writing this, hoping they'll reach out and fix my problem. I'm trying to login to get a book that was linked to my account but they keep saying "your new here let's send you an instant password" and I never get the email so I can never log in. If I can't get in the app or the website, I can't even collect a book I've been waiting on.

Downloaded this for a specific book series, but it's becoming more trouble than it's worth. The app keeps pausing randomly, or even closing altogether while I'm in the middle of listening. I will not be sear hing for more books in this app, still deciding whether to keep just for the ones I have. Can't find anything as far as troubleshooting, either.

Something is seriously wrong with the app. I tried to read a novel to review: each chapter was less than 1 paragraph long (a few were blank) and there was no connection between scenes. I finished in ~3 minutes. Then I went to book funnel online and found the rest of the book's text. It seems like the app just gave me the first paragraph of each chapter. But none of the buttons in the app did anything and there was nothing to click on inside the chapters to get to the rest of the text.

Works very well! I downloaded this to read books on my Kindle app, books I'm getting through a non-Amazon book club. At first the books didn't show up in Kindle, but I followed BookFunnel's very clear suggestions, and all has worked well. I've had trouble with one book, but BookFunnel's customer service has been quick and helpful, and the problem resolved. I highly recommend this app!

Isn't a bad app for reading books but they don't give many options....at least that I have been able to find or easily access. I wish they would let you highlight books and take notes as I review for work and take notes while reading. But they have been the easiest way for me to download books, especially reading when offline. Once you download you don't have to wifi hookup to do it again (Amazon, ugh, for ex does that with some). I really wish bookfunnel would put some better functions

I have trouble reading small print, and the app does not enlarge print size, only space between the lines. Sometimes, I read a new word, but I have to stop reading, open a dictionary app, and look it up. It would save time and be less distracting if I could just highlight the word and find out what it means. I like everything else about it.

you usually can't get to your list of books but it does exist, I've been there. Opening the app takes you straight to the download code page. I try to reset my password but it says I have the wrong email, the same one it just accepted. I can't find any access to customer service. There are lists of books available for free but getting there is next to impossible. If I have a link it usually works but frequently not. The app sucks for the reader. There is lots of support for writers

For the most part, this is a really good app. So why 2 stars? If I am outside, my phone adjusts to light accordingly, but if I am on BookFunnel ,I can't adjust the light to read because of the app running in the background. This is very annoying as the weather is getting warmer & it is nice to be outside. For this reason I am considering uninstalling the app as my enjoyment is limited to staying inside.

It's not a terrible app, but it has a bad habit of rearranging my books out of the order I put them in. If it didn't do that or seem to glitch, sometimes when I have to exit out of it and enter it again, that would be welcome. Some more options for organization and customization would be appreciated, especially if you could choose where the downloads go. Also, why does it not sync across devices?

Very clunky app. I purchased a book/audio book combination because I learn faster when I listen while I read. But the app only allows one of them to be opened at a time. I can't download either the book or the audio, because it says they can only be opened in the app. So I can't play the audio in a separate app while reading the book in this one. I won't be getting any more books on this app. it's borderline useless to me.
