Description
Been using Scribd: 170M+ documents for a couple months now. It’s basically a huge digital library where you can access all sorts of documents – everything from research papers and academic dissertations to DIY guides and user manuals. Pretty solid app if you’re into reading and learning new stuff.
Here’s what you do: you can search through their massive collection of over 200 million documents on just about any topic. There’s also the ability to save docs to read offline, which is pretty cool. And you can sync your stuff across devices, so you can pick up where you left off on your phone or tablet.
Look, if you’re into reading and learning, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the monthly subscription can get a bit pricey – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you want access to a huge library of specialized knowledge and information.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on Scribd: 170M+ documents. I've tested a bunch of ebook and document reader apps, and this one's pretty solid. The sheer volume of content is really impressive - you can find just about anything you're looking for, from government reports to academic papers to DIY tutorials. The offline sync and cross-device features work well too. But it's not without its flaws - the monthly fee is a bit steep, and the selection can feel a little random at times. Overall though, if you're a voracious reader and want access to a massive digital library, Scribd is definitely worth checking out.

I have a paid subscription & use both the app & website, and the app is pretty much useless because it doesn't load any documents when you click "read now"....
