Wear Reader App Reviews

Top app

Really great app to read with on my watch. Scrolling is easy and very simple to setup. Makes so easy to read and enjoy great books.

So far so good...

I didn’t encounter any problems using my pre-existing ebooks in the epub format and it handled everything quite well. As you can probably imagine, reading books on your watch is not the most senile way of going about it but either way it does it’s job well. Handling PDFs was a bit finicky and that could be improved.

Works well, perfectly compatible!!!

I love reading and being able to imports books and stuff so this app was perfect! 5/5 for sure, definitely worth the $.99!

Does not work with iPhone 6 iOS 8.4

This app has only ever worked once. Since then it just cycles on a loading screen and quits. Very frustrating.

Crashes

What’s up with all these glowing reviews? Apple should investigate to make sure they’re not spam. I imported books but the app crashes when I try to load it on the watch.

Crash and bugs

Doesnt work with Russian language and chashes every time when i want to open that sized > 2MB on my Apple Watch

WatchOS2 update please

Very good application! Thank you for the new update Could you please make this app native for watchos2? that would be great!

Great app!

It needs a little work, but overall is great!!

Doesnt work

It doesnt even work, and UI needs more work

Turns off in seconds :(

Great app in theory. In practice, I wasted my money because it works for about 3 seconds on the Apple Watch, then turns off automatically. No workaround or fix yet :(

Hate it

I was so excited to find an app where I could read a book on my Apple Watch. I paid $1.99 and realized immediately I just wasted that money because as soon as it started, Im like, do I really want to read one word at a time flashing across the screen? And then my watch screen kept shutting down because of saving the battery life... Its just not a good experience. Frustrating.

4 stars for a reason.

I really like this app. Works like it says, and its really nice being able to take my books from Dropbox and put them on my watch. Im not really a speed reader though. I believe that reading one word at a time can give me a massive headache. However I see that they have implemented a "traditional reading" option where you can read your books like and actual book. I noticed, however, that if I turn my watch or have to stop for some reason and I come back that the app refreshes and put you all the way at the start of the page, or chapter you started on. This, I believe, is VERY annoying. Mostly because I have to scroll all the way down to where I stopped to pick back up where I left off and if I were to accidentally turn my wrist it does it again. It can be a little frustrating. However like I said, the app works like it says it does. And that really my only complaint, other than I think its a little over priced. (Should be $.99 IMO) but all-in-all its a pretty good app. If you fix this problem I will rate it a 5 star.

Rip-off

I paid $2.99 for this app and it cant even launch. If the developers arent competent enough to put a working product on the market, they should make it free or remove it. Edit: Ive added a star because the app will load short books (it crashes on long books) and the app developer seems to be eager to fix issues that Apple may be the cause of.

iBooks

I cannot view kindle or iBooks or audible so Im trying to understand the purpose of this app?
