Unusable. Nothing like paying for a book and having an app that remains unusable when iOS and the app are updated. This is completely unacceptable.

Good and Convenient, but…. I like having digital access to this app but when using it on desktop it is clunky. When you have found a page that you want to look at if you click off the application the page moves up several pages causing you to have to search for the page you were on again. It works better on iPad. I think if there was a pdf download available for the purchases you made, it would make it more convenient for working professions who would be using this app on their desktop computers.

Terrible interface. Holding a monopoly on their ebooks is frustrating but honestly not surprising from APA. The interface is awful. I’m an avid highlighter and note taker especially with books like the DSM. It’s so frustrating trying to highlight a line and it trying to scroll or just missing a bunch of words. Hopefully it improves. I’d rather not buy hard copy or have to look elsewhere

Crashes on iPad within seconds. I was using this app to review a textbook for boards, but one day the app started to crash within seconds of startup. It does this reliably every single time. I deleted and reinstalled the app but it still does it. The app was working well before it started crashing. Please fix.

Waste of time. I really should’ve read reviews before purchasing ebook and downloading app. It crashes every time I try to log in. How’s does it look? 🤷🏽‍♀️

MD. App crashes doesn’t have good flow. There are many other better apps. Why is APA does offer book with an online option. It’s such a horrible system to buy same thing 2 times if you prefer paper book and online version.

Work Around. Not that this SHOULD be a solution, but I found that after you down load the app and sign in, if you remove it (delete it), redownload it, and sign back in, I got mine to work (for now). Again, should just work as is, but this works for me for the time being so I thought I’d leave a review in case it works for anyone else. Developers, please fix this. Before I tried this I couldn’t get the app to even open without immediately crashing. I need this book for school and carrying around a 1000+ page book with a chronic fatigue disorder didn’t sound like a swell idea.

APA eBooks. READ THIS - This will solve your problems! I was unable to access my ebooks from this app on my iPad, about FOUR times over the past 2 years! The support staff were nice and courteous, but unable to resolve my issue. After nearly a WEEK of back and forth, I FINALLY spoke with someone that suggested that I delete the App, and then re-install it. WORKED GREAT! This is the answer!

Useless. Completely useless

The app won’t open. I thought I’d try this as it seems to have had an update a month ago. I couldn’t even get the app to open. I’m using an IPad Pro. It seems like for years now this E reader idea the APA has is a complete miss…

Needs fixing to become great. Shuts down when you push settings Does not open at the page where you stopped reading, instead keeps going to one random old page

Unhappy!. I updated my app and am still having problems!!! Firstly, my books are not on my shelf most of the time. Bookmarks and last page read are not present when I open a book again. I have to sign out of my account regularly to just get my books (if the show up!) and download them again most of the time. NOW, I cannot get into my book and I’m only presented with the book cover. If your app is this poorly programmed, why don't you just allow users to download books to a more reliable app??? We’re still paying you for the ebook. At this point, I will no longer purchase ebooks on your site.

Frustrating. Still having trouble highlighting and taking notes on my iPad. Seems like this is a problem that needs to definitive and effective repair!

Crashes every time. I bought the newest version of the DSM and I’ve not been able to read a single time online or on the app because it is constantly crashing 100% of the time. Going to ask for my money back.

Not Audible. Platform is clunky and crashes. APA ebooks would be wise to scrap it and make the ebooks available on Kindle, Audible, and/or Apple Books/Audiobooks.

Can’t login. Crashes every time I login totally useless. Can’t even get into my account to read anything since it immediately crashes as soon as I log in terrible interface

Crashing app. Worst ebook app I am so disappointed at the APA. I have 6 books that purchased from them including the latest DSM 5 TR. Yet I can not access them on either my iPad or iPhone. Every time I try to open any of the ebooks the app crashes. Unbelievable and shame on you APA.

Cumbersome and Pointless App. This app rarely works and when it does it takes forever to navigate it--very poorly designed, but APA refuses to put the DSM-V on a eBook platform that actually works. They have a monopoly on it, and those of us that have to use the diagnostic criteria for work are stuck with it. This is the exact reason I have never bought another book from APA/APPI. The benefit of an eBook would be access to the manual wherever you are and that would be useful with Telehealth, but the slowness of the app (finding and loading the correct pages), problems with login and the app not able to login to my purchases, mean I may as well have bought a paper copy, because it would take me less time to drive to the office or back home to get the manual that to try to get the app to work again...and again...and again.

Buggy app almost unusable. It is quite frustrating trying to read a book on this application. Every time I want to use it it deletes my books, puts a book i don’t own on my bookshelf and forces me to sign out, sign in again and redownload my book. It seldom saves the page I am on. Please update APA. This makes the field look poorly

Terrible app!. I’m surprised the APA did such a poor job with this app, given all the resources at their disposal. It has a very clunky reading display. It is awkward and inefficient to read books on this app. I’m used to high quality, user friendly reader apps and this is certainly not one of them. I tried it on two different devices, but had the same poor results. It was an absolutely terrible experience. The worst part is the APA will only allow you to use their app to read their ebooks. For APA books, I will either buy them hard copy or find another publisher with a better solution.
