Inkling Reviews

by Stem2012

I use Inkling because the e book that i purchased is via this app. You cannot import this to notability. Fine, you have the rights, whatever. You cannot use Apple Pencil to make notes, the highlighter is a pain to work with. You cannot customize anything like multiple other apps, paid or free. And it seems like the company doesn’t’t care, because I am not the first one to write the bad review about the same issues. They probably have a contract with medical publishers, and could care less since they get paid anyway.
It is so slow to scroll through the book, going from page one to page 2.
I wish someone would make an app for us to be able to download this book that i paid full price for, so i can start using it like its my personal property instead of being limited by this good-for-nothing app.
If anyone knows of an app that is capable of doing so, please post in the reviews.

My company has over a 1000 inkdocs on this service and it seems to take forever to load. During the downloads Inkling is almost unusable. Scrolling lags or doesn’t respond at all. You can tell this isn’t very optimized or properly developed. I’m on an Xs Max so it shouldn’t be warm to the touch while Inkling is running.

There’s extreme lagg now after the new update. After going into an Inkdoc, the sections drop down blank or the space will open but the chapters will actually be down the page.

For some reason, HR Block decided to use this app for their training classes.

Worst system I’ve worked with. It’s a hassle to log in and access, not very reliable and poorly designed. I m h o, it’d be overpriced in the $9.95 bin at OfficeMax. I hope Block didn’t pay that much for company wide access to this dog. Which is an insult to dogs.

I forgot my password I was trying to login but there’s no more option that I can get a new password, the only option is answer the 3 security questions. I did answer but still I couldn’t. Need improve Inkling I don’t like it

I use this when training in class on my iPad and iPhone. Inkling runs incredibly slow on the iPad causing people who like to follow along to fall behind quickly, and it doesn’t allow users to click on most links. On the iPhone, however, it just consistently crashes.

App constantly closes. It takes forever to load something poorly optimized. Unfortunately, the company I work for uses them for everything.

Why can’t I log into the mobile app with my personal account? The whole purpose of e-books is to be able to access them on our mobile apps. Going to the web to view them on your mobile device is clunky and not user friendly.

Outdated app that does not even highlight consistently, in fact some parts can not be highlighted. I use this for my medical books and it’s pathetic at any note taking , even the basic e book readers have much better capability and I don’t even know why medical books from elsevier are published on this and why I don’t have the choice to read my ebook in another app! Frustrating to say the least, to the point that I probably won’t buy elsevier ebook now . Enough with my rant ( please forgive my frustration )

Limited functionality from the iPhone. Would appear to take up a lot of space to download everything. Screens don’t re-size to fit a mobile view

by Damianand

A lot of books and chapters fail to load properly. This problem is with every single time I start Inkling ..

Can’t print. Can’t save. Can’t copy and paste. Can’t rotate view. Can’t access definition pop-ups unless on a pc.

I’m a H&R Block affiliated franchise employee, so my perspective is from the end user. The system works OK on my iPad, however It would be useful if I could add freeform notes with my apple pencil directly to the page. I could do that on the PDF’s, but can’t with our new system.

by Wagginit

I can understand why a company would want to use this method to provide training docs and such but the interface is awful.
You cannot “star” a document while in it. So every time you need to use it you have to remember the exact name and hope it pulls up in the search to find any notes you may have taken.
The notes functionality is very limited.
IT ABSOLUTELY KILLS BATTERY LIFE ON MOBILE. It constantly has to reconnect or is always forcing some type of connection wirelessly. Scrolling is the only way to view, even for documents designed as workbook pages.

I love Inkling , I personally haven’t had issues with it’s functionality but I would really love it if it would keep you logged in!!!

Inkling is a good reference for me. It helping me whenever I don’t understand or confused about a tax law. It’s content is clear, concise and easy to understand.

this app needs to offer reports and tracking that is easier to access and part of every package

Please update the interface, after days of inactivity, try to open and pop up message logging out appear and never work again, re start Inkling and the problem again.

I’ve been getting an error that states invalid credentials even though my number and password are valid. I contacted support and they had mr delete Inkling and redownload but nothing changed. Still unable to log in.

You can't cancel the downloads when they're downloading. You also can't view things online, they must be downloaded.

Takes too long to scroll through the page.

by Upset Nail Tech

Can’t even log in with my credentials that I’VE set up! Can go to the company website and log in just fine! Very disappointed.

You can’t increase font size and there’s no night mode
