BookFunnel Reviews

BookFunnel functions as well as Audible, less some features and not quite as polished, but it is extremely inefficient when it comes to battery. I listened for 4 hours 8 mins to a book that was downloaded, 11 minutes of that was with BookFunnel up on the screen, the remaining 4 hours 3 minutes BookFunnel was in the background (maybe 15 mins while I did other things on my phone) or my phone was locked (vast majority). In that time this app used 44% of my phone’s (iPhone 12 Pro Max) battery!! It wasn’t streaming the book, it only used 7MBs data total. That’s the only issue I have with BookFunnel . I work 10 hour shifts and don’t have access to a charger, which makes this nearly unusable.

Incredibly difficult app. I got the ones I paid for. Had to use Apple. Guess my two free ones are in your app some where. You say you sent a password. I never got it. You say I marked you as spam or junk some time so you can’t email me, but you keep emailing me but not with the password I need. I can’t get into my library without it. You won’t be getting anymore of my business. I don’t think your programmers know what they’re doing.

After many emails to your Jamie, I still don’t have my books. The last email offered the same convoluted solution as before. No thanks. Keep my money and your damned books!

Great sub book, great research on locations and weapons plus sub language. Really enjoyed this book and 7 of 7 book. Will now read all of them in order. Like the idea of XO being a lady with ties to Commander. Glad you did not back away from descriptive language. Being retired Army CID commander telling it almost like it is makes for amusing reading. Keep up the great books. Tex

BookFunnel is good, but has the potential to be so much better.

I was really enjoying this little app. I bought a whole series of books (the first was free and the rest were ridiculously inexpensive so I bought the whole series.
I was totally hooked, and I tried to open BookFunnel this morning, and it was totally blank. Nothing was there. I tried to redownload BookFunnel . Didn’t work.
I could have downloaded these books to several apps, including my Applebooks, Nook, etc.
Why did I select this disappearing app?
Beware!

I've been using BookFunnel for books for several years without any problems. Had some trouble with my first audio book and I reached out for support. Jamie responded quickly and fixed the bug and now it is working perfectly.

BookFunnel is simple and easy to use. There are no complicated buttons or instructions. Just download the book and start reading. I really like the different fonts you can use. Some fonts are a lot harder to read and BookFunnel gives you lots of options.

I had major issues with the audio after closing BookFunnel for the first time. It appears the download got corrupted and i had to redownload. BookFunnel does not work as well as audible but seems to work well enough if you don'tmind some troubleshooting.

The fonts and font size cannot be changed. Makes it hard to read. It’s a pain to download the books. On top of that, there’s no way to see before downloading the size of the “book” or if it just a sample. If I don’t see a change for the better, I’m deleting BookFunnel.

BookFunnel shows good promise. I gave it two stars because it is still buggy on iPados 14.7.1..

it sometimes needs to be deleted, and also do a power off reset. My wife has been fighting it for over an hour.

Software testing is almost harder than the coding. I await a very classy app.

I enjoyed reading this book has a nice plot . And enjoy a sweet romance! Looking forward to reading more books by this author!

Thank you! Thank you! Finally an app that is simple to use and sends my book straight to my Kindle app! ❤️

Whenever BookFunnel is open, it cuts off a lot of audio related functions on the phone.(Siri, ping, notifications…)

I tried and tried to get the book to download. The directions told me to click the share button, then send to Kindle. After several attempts I was forced to give up.
It just doesn’t work. 😡

Tired of trying to download books!

Works great. I’m sure I’m time I’ll get used to it over the “other” app

They keep saying that they sent me an “instant password”. Checked my inbox, my spam folder, me promotions folder, my deleted folder, never received any kind of “instant password”. Not worth the space on my mobile devices!

The first few times I used it was extremely complex to use, but now even tho I download a book cannot open in kindle or books.
Now i just have to skip the free first books.

Can not find how much BookFunnel cost

Worked once and then never again.

BookFunnel is PERFECT. It does exactly what I needed with step by step instructions so there is absolutely no confusion! It delivers my books right to my kindle in seconds!

No matter which way you try to read the book, either by download or cloud, you get a download book. Deleting after this review.

I can send books to my Kobo app with no problems! Thanks Book Funnell!

BookFunnel is so easy to use. I inserted the code and my book downloaded seamlessly.

BookFunnel is the worst book app ever. Can’t get anything to work. The help info is worthless. Can’t find books with their own code. Doesn’t tell you that you have to enter a code they’ve emailed you to confirm signing up which is only good for an hour so it’s expired before you ever see it and there’s no options to get another one sent. DON’T waste your time and frustration on BookFunnel.
If I could have given a negative five rating I would have!
