I like FB, but the app itself is shoddy at best. It takes up a lot of memory, and if you're an android user you've probably encountered the fact that all the newer phones no longer allow for apps to move over to an external SDCard, meaning that apps like FB make your phone memory full...which sucks even more because it comes pre-installed on all the new androids, too.

My preferred eReader app
I was an early adopter of the Kindle and now use the Kindle App on my Android Tablet. Combining the eReader with Audible allows you to jump between an audio book and the written word with ease.

Also, just as an added benefit the text size adjustment is very intuitive and easy to resize on the go. Great for when you are changing between devices.

So much better than the built in Mapping apps for either Android or IOS. I also really enjoy that other users can post images and info about upcoming wrecks or traffic jams. (0 more)
On the flip side, some users will add stupid comments when posting about traffic which is just a frustrating as the amount of stuff you have to filter past in Facebook, Twitter, etc. (0 more)
Great Travel App

Hey guys. I was just writing a review, and accidently pressed the close button, which meant I lost everything I had done so far. It'd be handy if a little pop up box were to appear saying something like 'you will lose all unsaved work, continue?' I know it's not much of a big thing, but it might stop other people experiencing this in the future. This was on android by the way.

There is a 'Save as Draft' option, maybe to prevent accidental deletion, make it an automatic save?

That has happened to me so many times when trying to add new items. It's so frustrating because all the information created is gone. It shouldn't take four times and an hour to create new items. I do it for items I'm passionate about but for others, it's just not worth it. I can't tell you how many items I've attempted to create but just gave up on.

It happens when I go back and forth to look up information about movies or books, such as producers or publishers and other info not commonly known. It also happens when I decide against posting a pic because it needs to be edited first and want to add it later. So everything entered previously is lost.

Slick and easy to use
I use the kindle app both on an iPad and an android device and it functions well on both. The usability and presentation is superior on the iPad version. There is good syncing between device use. As you should imagine, its pretty advert-led in terms of recommending hundreds of books to you on the front page of the app. All in all, great functionality and solid reading pleasure.
