  1. Add a sleep timer to stop reading

    Many readers enjoy reading a book before they go to sleep. Having a configurable sleep timer would let users read until they fall asleep without losing their place in their book. Ideally, the app should make a bookmark of some kind when the book stops reading so the user can pick up where they left off the next time they open the book.

      • Timer or Count Down Clock

        Most schools like to track student reading time. It would be wonderful if there was an option for students to keep track of how much time they spend reading. In addition, many teachers and parents will tell a child "read for x minutes" and having a timer would help them stay on track instead of repeatedly asking "how much longer".

        • Application fees

          I would love to buy the app but I think that if this app is used in schools with special education students then this app should be free for these students. This is something that is mandatory to help these students get through everyday educational skills. I hope you consider because a lot of parents and educator would agree on.

          • Allow first use registration due to extreme difficulties with signing-in.

            I've never registered to use Read2Go, yet I am asked to sign-in. With no hint as to which prior sign-in Read2Go is asking for, I have spent nearly an hour trying to complete the sign-in procedure. In the last 10+ years I have used several email addresses, user names and Passwords. Is there a way to register upon first usage?

            • Give option to have it read to you OR read it yourself without text to speech running

              Sometimes students just need access to the book in a larger font and would like to read the text themselves; especialy in reading instruction. There is no way to navigate without the text to speech settings.

                      fix the app to allow +'s in the user name. GMail allows email addresses in the form of account+label@gmail.com. I use such an email address for my son's bookshare account to separate it from spam.

                              • make speed options able to go slower.

                                My son mutes the audio and keeps the speed on the slowest setting so he can use it as a way to build tracking speed. However even at the lowest speed it is too fast for him to keep up reading. I like how the Disney Digital books allow the words to highlight as you put your finger on them.. that could be another option!

                                  • More settings for persons with mobility issues

                                    We'd love to see a setting option to relocate ther browser bar to the side, rather than it always being at the bottom. In that location it's hard for lefties with motor issues to hit the forward button without also hitting the others. We're also wondering if there is a way to disable the resizing that occurs if you swipe the screen with more than one finger. We need easier ways to turn pages for people with limited motor skills.

                                        • Consider permitting editing of remarks posted on this forum

                                          It would be useful to permit the revision of postings here. Sometimes after the fact, it is apparent that wording or the header could be revised to be more understandable so readers can better appreciate the message.
