Ratings and reviews

No regrets on the purchase. Audiobook doesn't include Aerial chapters. Can only listen to the book from within the app which doesn't interact with many BT controls (play/pause). Study deck was fine-would be served better if it would mark missed questions in audiobook. If the audiobook is forced to be played on the app the chapter sections should have been timestamped. Knowing all this I'd buy it again. Good value compared to the physical or digital books. Needs improvements but it's a good start

So I give this 3 because i Uninstalled it last year. Re installed this year and all my purchases are gone. I bought the audio book and all exam prep. And now I have to rebuild it

Why did the publisher think that audio books were great for everyone? I don't care for just audio books. I have used a couple of other IFSTA apps to help prepare for IFSAC testing that had chapters that could be read, touching on important parts of those chapters. This app does not.
