Pearson eText App Reviews

Terrible app that always crashes I mean ALWAYS. Reopening the app doesnt work so there was no point in downloading the app because I still have to open up my e-text book in safari

Never work...just always crashes

It wouldnt even let me log in... I was hoping this would be useful too.

It was a good app until I was unable to highlight and make notes...so its pretty useless without those features...

Company puts out an app with a broken login

this application does not work!!!

I paid 80$ for the sociology ebook, only to discover that it is not compatible with the app. Now, when I read the book I have to sign in to my school portal and then the Pearson e-text portal. If I set my tablet down for an hour I have to go through the sign in process again. The actual book is only 3/4" thick... Ill probably spend more time typing my password and username than I will reading the actual book. Pearson shouldnt be charging so much for digital copies if they are so inaccessible.

This crappy app just keeps crashing. Pearson makes a lot of money but delivers cheap products. Shame!

Just that, my books for my classes are not on my "book self" kinda pointless right? I agree. Pearson says "anytime, anywhere, and any way you want!" Thats simply not true with this app.

There are so few books supported by this app. None that I need are here. It would make sense to make all the available

Crappy app doesnt let download my accounting book. Even you can access your ebook from the website unless u r connected to the Internet. They better fix because it cost me fortune to buy the access code. The whole Pearson is pointless

The app continues to foreclose every single time I open it. It continues to show books that I have never seen in my life and putting them in my shelf. The must frustrating thing about this, is that their e-textbook continue to fail or their website stops working too.You would think that with all the money Pearson takes from students, they would have at least a decent application that works properly. Thank you Pearson for taking my money and give me something that is very inconvenient. Hire some people to continue updating the app to fix all the bug and listen to your customers, or at least give me the option to download the book to my mobile or laptop so I dont have to depend on you. Sincerely, A very angry college student

I have waited an hour (twice) now for my book to download (which is absolutely ridiculous). During the last legs of downloading however, the app decided to crash both times. Im very annoyed and thats 2 hours I could have spent doing my work if it had actually worked

Though I noticed this app had only terrible single star reviews, I gave it a shot anyway, not that I had a choice. I concur, the app is of no value. When attempting to open a book I get a loading message that never goes away.

Much improved! Keep up the good work...

This update ruined my experience. Prior to update, I was able to do a lot of offline activities within my e-book. Now, pretty much everything need Internet in order to access or use. Very upsetting as I use a wifi only iPad in order to read my books during work. Now the book is useless.

First of all I downloaded this app so I could access my Pearson bought textbooks on the go so I didnt have to bring my laptop with me everywhere. I opened the app, signed in, and well guess what? I apparently dont have any textbooks to view. This app is a load of crap since I cant access the only content this app offers. If I could give it 0 stars I would.

Donʻt really like the scrolling involved. Otherwise, itʻs fast and helpful. Keep the updates coming!

Can charge $100 for a book but doesnt offer my particular textbook (IBUS)??

This app is absolutely horrible. They only have select Tex books available. To even access those you have to login to the full Pearson Website on the Safari web browser (Google Chrome app isnt supported) and then open the etext there and it is suppose to allow you to have access to it through the app. It didnt work for me and the time lost if time I could have spent reading the book on my laptop. Dont waste your time trying to get it to work and just stick to doing your reading on a computer.
