Makes you log in and download all your purchases after every app update. No other app wastes so much time.

I am someone who uses digital copies of books very often. It is much more convenient and I don’t need more clutter around my house. I very much wish that they would make these books available for Kindle, however, you have to use their online app. Given how atrocious the app is, and the online reading experience as a whole, it makes zero sense to me why the book would be charged full price. They should either make these books available for Kindle, at which point I would be happy to pay full price, or-if they are insistent on forcing this horrible app, they should add the e-book experience for free to be included with every purchase of the hard copy as many other publishers do. App is unusable.

App crashes doesn’t have good flow. There are many other better apps. Why is APA does offer book with an online option. It’s such a horrible system to buy same thing 2 times if you prefer paper book and online version.

Platform is clunky and crashes. APA ebooks would be wise to scrap it and make the ebooks available on Kindle, Audible, and/or Apple Books/Audiobooks.

Worst ebook app I am so disappointed at the APA. I have 6 books that purchased from them including the latest DSM 5 TR. Yet I can not access them on either my iPad or iPhone. Every time I try to open any of the ebooks the app crashes. Unbelievable and shame on you APA.

I like having digital access to this app but when using it on desktop it is clunky. When you have found a page that you want to look at if you click off the application the page moves up several pages causing you to have to search for the page you were on again. It works better on iPad. I think if there was a pdf download available for the purchases you made, it would make it more convenient for working professions who would be using this app on their desktop computers.

Nothing like paying for a book and having an app that remains unusable when iOS and the app are updated. This is completely unacceptable.

Still having trouble highlighting and taking notes on my iPad. Seems like this is a problem that needs to definitive and effective repair!

I updated my app and am still having problems!!! Firstly, my books are not on my shelf most of the time. Bookmarks and last page read are not present when I open a book again. I have to sign out of my account regularly to just get my books (if the show up!) and download them again most of the time. NOW, I cannot get into my book and I’m only presented with the book cover. If your app is this poorly programmed, why don't you just allow users to download books to a more reliable app??? We’re still paying you for the ebook. At this point, I will no longer purchase ebooks on your site.
