7 Habits of Highly Effective People App Reviews

26 add

Doesnt work with IOS5

I cant scroll down the pages. Terrible! It used to work well on the previous versions.

Great Book....

Great Book - would be great to be able to share parts with friends or Email to. As well a Link to a goal setting app I would like At least cheaper than the book

Disappointing

This app DOES NOT work properly...you will not be able scroll down the pages...and the font size setting needs to be reset every time you start the app.

7 Habits review...

This is a poorly designed app. I could not scroll through the text, and it was very difficult to read through as a result. The page turning is very awkward and I had to reset the font size every time I tried to access the app. I also found that when I used the bottom button to scroll through the page, it would disappear, and I was unable to access the rest of the information on that particular page. Very frustrating. I am hoping to see if I can delete it and get my money returned.

Very unfriendly program

Not easy to use, font too small

Great book, ok app

I have not seen this book, with accompaning illustrations, in any other electronic format. I like the structured categories and the flow of the uninterrupted text. However, in future updates I would like to change the background and text colors, have the ability to zoom in on illustrations, and see some of the typos corrected, none of which are too disruptive. Overall, I love this book and am surprised not to see it on Kindle.

A very ineffective App

I have bought 15+ "App" books in the last three months and enjoyed the price and convenience of reading on my iPod very much. I have a paper copy of the "7 habits" book at home and thought it would be great if I could read it on the iPod. But what I found is that this "7 habits" book-reader App is about the most ineffective book reader I have ever seen: - Every time you start the book-reader App, it makes you start from the beginning (versus other book readers, they take you to exactly where you left off the last time) --- a MAJOR ineffectiveness. So, I thought I just bookmarked the page... - Unfortunately, you can only bookmark a section header but not a page, and you can create bookmarks but not delete them. So after 10-15 bookmarks are created (because you cant delete the old ones), the feature becomes essentially useless. - The "Search" function does not work. Type a word (try "habit") and press Search, its not showing any result at all. I thought that the word "habit" should be in the book. - Some diagrams in the App book are either in the wrong place and omitted. It seems that the "7 habits" App was rushed out to the market and has only elementary feature. I am very disappointed and feel that I wasted my money. I wish I can have my money back. Until the publisher enhance and provide an update of the App, Im going back to my paper book.

Ok App--But Still Serious Flaws

This app is ok but it still has a number of major flaws. Searching is hit and miss. I typed in "Albert Einstein" from one of the screen shots and the search just sits there with no results. Looks like it only works with one word. When it does return results, it doesnt highlight the word in the section--it only references the section(s). Deleting bookmarks took a bit to figure out how work but it is in there. It would be nice to pick up where you left off in the book and allow you the capability to turn pages like other ereaders do. The Kindle app for the iphone was the only other choice I had for this book and I chose this on instead because I was hoping the search would be better. Too bad...

Not even close to the book

I have the book. Wanted electronic copy. This isnt it. Contacting Apple to try and get a refund. I should have read reviews.

7 Habits for Ipad a FLOP

Awkward interface. Does not bookmark where you finished reading. Riddled with typos

The Book App

• This publisher should have spell-checked the text • Bookmarks are kind of useless. Bookmarks should save your place within a chapter, rather than just bookmarking the chapter • The page flip format used in iBook is a better mechanism for reading & navigating & would make it possible for bookmarking to actually have a purpose • Since this is no more than the text of the book, this would function better as an iBook & wouldnt take up my apps screen Cheers !

Horrible

The bottom three lines of each page are cut off at the bottom. Typos from the first paragraph. I cant even complete the first page. How do I get my money back?

Easily the worst app ever

This app does not function. Bad spelling errors, random text, what the? You cannot see the bottom of the page, it is cut off and it is impossible to scroll down to see it. Also the toolbar at the bottom disappeared now and I cant get it back to go to the table of contents. This needs an update -fix the book and a planner. A 10$ rip off

Terrible user interface

Terribly disappointing app here. All I wanted to do was read the content and I encountered: unintuitive gestures, disappearing navigation, and no chronology. Everything is awkward to use and hard to find. This app has major errors. Im not sure how it ever made it past user testing. Actually, if the developer did any at all Id be shocked.

Update or iBooks please

App worked fine on the phone, but who wants to read an entire book on a phone. I cant read past the first page. No ability to turn the page, let alone scroll. 13 bucks for an app that doesnt work at all? Cmon, lets get it fixed.

GREAT BOOK BUT REALLY STUPID iPAD VERSION….DON

I WANT MY MONEY BACK !!!!!!!! Its totally ridiculous when a book of this nature is presented in such a worthless and useless way. I hope Mr. Covey is reading this review. I just downloaded the iPad application and it absolutely doesnt work. You cant adjust the screen size of the type face and the bottom lines of the pages as previous reviewers have mentioned are cut off. What a total sham ! Fortunately I have a real copy of the book but I was hoping to be able to read this on my iPad anywhere for convenience sake. REALLY REALLY REALLY STUPID STUPID STUPID. !!!!!!!!

Pathetic

I wish I would have read the reviews before buying this app. Horrible, cannot scroll down cannot read the bottom of the page. I also have the book but I was hoping to read it in my iPad.

Unhappy

This app is not worth the money, and was a bit misleading. Just buy the kindle or iBooks version as the interface is better. This app did not support the multi touch function of my iPad. Also the kindle version is 90 cents cheaper. I ended up buying the kindle version anyway so did not have to deal with this apps clunky interface.

Average

The font size is huge and not adjustable.

Incomplete text on some pages

Some of the pages (e.g. The page titled "proactivity defined", have incomplete paragraphs at the bottom of the page. Can you fix? There were at least 1 or 2 other pages I found that are like this. Thanks!
