vBookz PDF Voice Reader US App Reviews

It would be great if they could identify headers and footers so that the body of the text is not interrupted by reading the headers and footers between each page. Even more frustrating is their inability to distinguish between a period at the end of a sentence and its use is initials, abbreviations, or numbers. A numbered paragraph "4.2.1 History... is read as "4(pause)2(pause)1 History". "i.e." is read as "i(pause)e(pause)" and "vs." Is actually read as "versus(pause)". This can make the narrative very hard to follow.

Needs immediate update as since new iphone update has 5 second gap in reading every 10 seconds. Iphone actually asks to have vbookz updated and says it "runs too slowly" so programmer Please!!!

I love this app. I use it to do school readings while a clean or cook. It does crash now and than, but when I start it up it usually remembers my place.

Though there is room for improvement the program works better than any other I have found. Would be nice if folders were available to organize the library

It freezes my iPhone. When I try to get it to read some of the PDFs it came with I see a red box moving but no sound at all . Expensive waist!

Its what Ive been wanting for years. Finally can get caught up on my work while driving!

This program does not work a waste of money, keep your money dont waste it on this program.

1. Interface - very simple and user friendly. Beautiful and intuitive layout. 2. Input PDF - as advertised can input files from Dropbox, email, and web pages. Occasional problems when there are too many programs installed that can also open PDF files. The first time opening a file will also take awhile, especially if it is a large file. 3. Speech - Overall clear, easy to understand, and accurate pronunciation. Easy to adjust speed and pitch. Cursor follows the flow of document extremely well regardless of the formatting of two columns, graphics, or tables. Wish-list: 1. Ability to play speech at lock screen to save battery while listening. 2. Ability to multi-task while speech is playing similar to other text to speech program such as VoiceReader. 3. Ability to highlight and make simple annotation while reading.

Very disappointing. vBook would not work with university scholarly PDFs and was both a waist of time and money.

My favorite application. Reading while walking or driving on the autoroute... No waste oh time ... Really great ! Thanks for all the time saved! Suggestion to improve : let us put some bookmarks .

Not a bad app. Its not perfect but it definitely works well enough to use as a PDF reader. I use it to turn e books into audiobooks. Not bad at all.

It is w hood app I find that it doesnt have a good foundation of words and pronunciation for words that are used in the meat and animal industrys and voices could be more human like with a choice of voices. The book shelf is to small still Other then that it is a great app And resource

You can only use OCR scanned pdf. That info is included very briefly at the very end of the "more info". Misleading. It does read well. Suggestion: academic option that skips page headers and footnotes

I am a resource teacher at an elementary school and we LOVE this app for students with reading disabilities. Could you make the voice sound less robotic and give it better phrasing and fluency? Then it would be almost perfect!

In a two column pdf, it tends to skip the second column and flip forward to the next page...but not always. Its annoying to have to keep correcting it.

Awesome app I like how u can adjust the amount of words it reads. I just dont like how it reads all if the numbers if u have multiple answers.

I use this app almost every day.

Smooth

Im using the app more...and learning its idiosyncrasies...I wish I could choose where in the document it begins reading...the ability to skip over tables, headers, and footers would be nicer. Thanks for making studying easier. Bjwillis58

Worth the money to buy the full app. Listen to all kinds of books & documents while driving long distances.
