DEUseless I was very satisfied with scribd. With Everand there is suddenly a restriction. Why is that? I'm not going to pay for a subscription and have to wait weeks for a book to become available. Completely uninteresting. I still decide what I want to read and don't let myself be spoon-fed some garbage. I canceled my subscription immediately. That's another way to drive customers away.

CAI miss scribed :'-( Similar to other reviews. Constantly crashing during books, stops audio but timer continues, have to rewind to get it to start again or it moves forward without audio. Sometimes 10x or more in a single chapter. Have tried every suggestion from tech support, who responded at first but now they seem to be ignoring the problem. Have uninstalled/reinstalled, shut down, reboot, log out/in, updated latest, on and on. Never had a single problem with scribed for years. Problems from the start with everand. No compensation for malfunctioning product. Am considering giving up my subscription and getting a library card just to access the audiobooks, I'm told the selection is quite good and it's free. Listening to a book as I type this and has cut audio/had to rewind 3 times...

AUWas a loyal Scrbd subscriber Was a loyal Scrbd subscriber, so have annual membership. WHAT a WASTE of MONEY. I have attempted to listen to 2 books, but when I start book it has multiple audios going. I thought, ok I can handle the intro details....but now it is in the middle of the book. So half way through book, even restarting, reopening, pausing ( multiple voices still there) and now I am writing this review. Save your money and do not pay for this. I have 10 months left on my annual subscription......There goes $120 +

GBInitially delighted - until I found out what I actually got for my money! 😡 Excellent selection of books, but very difficult to find out what the fair usage limits are until you hit them! And I don’t actually think they’re fair at all, tbh! 😡 I subscribed on 30th March, having been a satisfied member of Scribd in the past. Not knowing what the limits were, I ‘flicked through’ several books (as I would do in an actual bookshop) to decide which ones I wanted to read… and now, only 4 days later, I’ve been locked out of most of the books I was interested in! According to my account history I have ‘read’ 19 previews (the sort of thing you can do endlessly for free, on Amazon and Kindle). And I have skim-read a total of 5 books, before deciding which one I wanted to read properly. And now, on the 4th of April, most of the books I’ve saved to read have been ‘locked’ until 1st May! 😡 £10.99 for that, then locked out for the next 26 days? What a joke! 😡

GBHave had Scribd for many years Have had Scribd for many years. Now am having difficulty because it keeps “crashing” as another user put it. I try to open a book or audio book and it goes back to my apps page. So frustrating.
