Wiley Reader 4+

Fine reader

Seems easy to navigate to my course material. The typeface is a reasonable size.. my only complaint is that on my small iPhone the illustrations of diagrams with a lots of words are difficult to read.

Great but minor issues

The app and desktop versions are organized efficiently and include useful tools such as text to audio and note highlights. There are also videos to walk you through sample problems and a solutions section at the end of the book for ALL problems. My only issue is the solutions area due to the formulas/worked out problems do not show the entirety of the solution clearly. Some parts are either missing or do not display correctly. For example, some (not all) equal signs appear as hash marks similar to that of a minus sign or a piece will be missing in the middle of a solution so I’ll have to guess what could be there.

Nothing but aggravating

It takes forever to load pages, and all around buggy experience. I’ve used multiple apps to read (kindle, scribd, Pearson, Libby) & this is the worst app.

When you try to highlight text, the pop up takes up half the screen making it hard to see what you were highlighting in the first place. Definition & chapter section hyperlinks don’t work, in other books when you click on a word in the glossary it will take you to that portion on the book. If it weren’t for school I’d delete this app in a heartbeat.

Developer Response ,

Sorry to hear about this. Can you update the review with the ebook you are using for your class or email it to us at reader@wiley.com so we can troubleshoot the load issues and buggy experience?
