On the lookout for a better app Everand is the worst step down from it's amazing predecessor, Scribd. It's policies on limits are vague and arbitrary. What's the point of this app if you can't access books on demand? It's frustrating when you suddenly get locked out of your chosen books because you've reached their vaguely-prescribed limits. You'd need to wait until your next payment to access other books. Don't make the mistake of saving books you're not deadset on reading, otherwise your limits will be reached. I waited a month to access a particular book then got restricted immediately after scrolling through some other books I was considering! I'm thinking of canceling my subscription if this doesn't get resolved any time soon. Otherwise, it's a waste of money.

whole genres blocked I loved listening to books through Scribd (now Everand) but now I am unable to listen to the next book in my series. Its a dramatised adaptation of the series. Each book has a few parts (last two have had 2 parts to each book) the next book has 1 of 3 parts and although only half a way through the month I am no longer able to listen to the series. I try other books I might like and they are locked out too. The whole romance or fantasy area is blocked for half a month even though I've paid for a whole month. Disappointing and looking around.

I miss scribed :'-( Similar to other reviews. Constantly crashing during books, stops audio but timer continues, have to rewind to get it to start again or it moves forward without audio. Sometimes 10x or more in a single chapter. Have tried every suggestion from tech support, who responded at first but now they seem to be ignoring the problem. Have uninstalled/reinstalled, shut down, reboot, log out/in, updated latest, on and on. Never had a single problem with scribed for years. Problems from the start with everand. No compensation for malfunctioning product. Am considering giving up my subscription and getting a library card just to access the audiobooks, I'm told the selection is quite good and it's free. Listening to a book as I type this and has cut audio/had to rewind 3 times...

Almost worthless This once-great app (when it was Scribd) has become trash. Almost no audiobooks that I want to listen to are available anymore. I've seen too many replies to complaints like mine from the company, saying something like, "Occasionally some books may be temporarily unavailable..." That is total baloney. I will go a month without downloading anything, and when I do a search of popular authors, exactly zero books are available. I realize that streaming companies deal with licensing issues, etc. from publishers. I would even be willing to pay more upfront for the service if audiobooks were actually available. But this company isn't honest about it. I have been on Scribed for years, but that app is no more. There is almost nothing worthwhile on Everand. I won't be renewing my yearly subscription.

No value if the selection is limited I made the mistake of subscribing to a full year of Everand. During the first month, I was only able to listen to 2.5 audiobooks (one was a DNF) I was locked out of ALL newish or popular titles until the next billing cycle despite paying for the full year. Their canned response is that one "can enjoy many other titles while waiting out the month for the next billing cycle". I have Libby and Hoopla for that, and they are free. I've also noticed that the selection of new titles has significantly declined in quality. Just today, some very obscure titles were featured as "new releases". I will not be renewing next year and will not recommend this app to others.
