Booksprout Reviews

by Judas O

This is the first app I’ve downloaded from Booksprout Store that’s not sized for my phone and requires a horizontal scroll. It also has half the content of the website, ie no author services. Which is a shame since the website is basically nonfunctional on safari for iOS. Not a great look for a service authors are paying to use.

Won't let me log in. Won't let me access my account thru FB or my Apple ID.
I have had no response to my complaints. I am STILL unable to get into my account.
I have deleted this piece of digital excrement.

If I could give Booksprout 0 stars, I would. It doesn’t keep your place when you read on Booksprout , even if you bookmark your spot. It won’t allow you to email a copy of the books because the files are too large. The requests time out before you can email it to yourself. If you choose to download it, it doesn’t pop up or anything. It won’t even let me click on support. The actual website isn’t any better.

This is a poorly written app. How did Apple allow Booksprout to be offered by its Store? After entering my email address correctly (twice) I did not get a confirmation email. The bigger issue is that it is difficult to navigate through. In order to move back to the page, after entering your email address, you are unable to go to the main page to allow you to select titles to review. In order to reach the main page, you have to the swipe the page up and close it and then go back to the page. Also, it doesn’t even allow you to select the categories of books you wish to review. Extremely rudimentary and poorly developed.

Booksprout is terrible. You cannot set more than one filter. Once you look at a book it takes you all the way back to the beginning of the search each time to look at another book. Authors should be very upset!

I gave Booksprout a horrible review because the pages scrunched and I couldn’t read the book. They sent me a message, so I tried again and it’s fixed! Things can change for the better.
