An annoying social app that's preoccupied with rewards and achievements. No equivalent PC program so is discriminating against lower income people who can afford Chromebooks not iPhones for example. Limited device memory means limited access to books and audiobooks. I'm so disappointed the audiobooksync program switched to this garbage for 2020!
it is amazing I love it it help me focus.
I really appreciate how Sora allows you to add library's and them search from both of them at the same time. I have to use this app for school sometimes and it allows me to use my school library AND my local library. I was using Libby before and would still be using it except for the fact that I couldn't access my school's selection of books,which left me at a loss of variety which Sora immediately fixed. Would definitely reccomend getting this app!
Love the app, use it for story time at the school and to read my books on my phone, especially while traveling. I had no issues until I got a new phone this summer. Now, I am not able to log in on my phone anymore. It goes to a white screen with a small Sora symbol in the center for a while, then kicks me back to the login screen with an error message. The same goes for my husband's phone. The app still works on my laptops at home and at work... Any idea on what to do?
I use this for both my school and public library. It's great and can search in both in one search. The only issue is I don't receive email or push notifications. It makes it hard to know when I get books in without having to go into the app daily (or more) to check.
It's an amazing experience except I would like to know what timezone this is in because I had just finished reading a book at around about 4pm and once I finished an achievement popped up on the screen for reading before 7am 'early bird' and Im thinking that when someone opens the app up it should do something like connect to that person's timezone. All in all though if something helps that little problem this rating can reach 5 stars! Happy reading!
Very large array of books. Easy to use (for me at least since I got a free account with school and my county) Would only like small QoL things like more bugs I can hold etc but overall very nice. Been using it for 3 years now. Also wish u could join other libraries easier. I want some books that aren't in my libraries but are in USA or smth and I literally cannot get those so pain
😕 Worked fine at first. I would have given it 4 stars. But now it's not working! I have to download the books each time I open the app. This takes about 10-15 minutes per book. But now after each book downloads, the others say download failed. I have to refresh each time to get the books to download. Now after opening the audio book either the fan keeps spinning or I get a message the book is not available. I've tried on 3 different devices, operating systems, and networks. 😟
i love that my school district has this. it always works for me. there are 3 main things that i like- 1, you can freeze your hold in place which is super helpful for non-school related books. 2, the highlight & notes feature. its super handy if you need to save certain things for an assingment. 3, it saves your spot. also it works with public librarys via your library card which is so handy overall, its super nice and i totally reccomend for school/not leaving your house for the library.
Great app. Wonderful selection of books. I love the feature that allows you to link your local library and get unlimited loans as well as holds and an even greater selection of books. I looked a lot online yo find an ebook app that was free, and yhis was perfect. I don't need to buy many books anymore! Highly recommend, and I think it is a wonderful app for unprivleged kids.
