You just added 30-50 years to my life
This book just saved me from a big mistake! I was scheduled for angioplasty and a stent. If that failed I would need a coronary artery bypass. After reading only part of the book I changed my diet to a high nutrient low carb diet. I lost 3 pounds. My glucose went from 247 to 123.9 . And l’m taking about 8 units of lantice less/day. This is in the first three weeks of the diet. I’m walking 2-5 miles/day and I’m feeling GREAT. No pain, shortness of breath, or Angina. I guess the only person that is going to die is my cardiologist from embarrassment. I’m 70 years old and my cardiologist is younger. I personally plan to urinate on his gravestone on the tenth anniversary of his death!! I truly hope he lives a very long time!!!! THANK YOU for saving my life!!!! The book was worth thousands of times more than I paid for it. Sincerely Jerry O.

Great customer support
I had an issue for signing in and I read other reviews saying something similar. I decided to contact the support via chat window. Unlike many of the customer support of other apps or online stores, a guy named Arturo knew what he was talking about. I described my issue and he immediately pointed out what I’d have to do. It had something to do with the unclarity of sign-in options on the screen. The App designer definitely needs to make it more visible. You need to sign in by specifying what you originally signed up with. There is a small text below sign in boxes saying “more sign in options”. If you click on that there was a long list of different options. After going through that, there was no problem. Thanks again, Arturo!

Kobo is my favorite reader for use on the iPad
I like how the Kobo app works, especially the way folders can be used to sort books. Now the app on the iMac allows better search options. It is also easy to go back and forth to keep Plaintext notes on my iPad. I also like how it is set up to easily give a review of the book when I finish. Improvements? It would be nice to have an archive folder for books I have read and probably won't revisit. It would be such that the all folder still shows all, but if I want to edit my books-read folder, it would let me go to the all listing minus the archive ones. As it is now, as my library gets bigger, it gets clumsier to use.
