A user is only allowed one device, so, that's why it locked me out. You cannot delete the Calibre app and then reload without the database thinking you have two devices. I called Calibre membership services this morning and I was correct. Now the app I do like is the dolphin easy reader app, and I use that instead if I am getting rnib titles, if calibre offered books through dolphin easy reader I would probably use it more, as easy reader its clear was thought through properly with blind users in mind. But I don't understand how any of them could have found it easy or a pleasure to use.Īs to your point about overdrive, I actually don't like it at all its basically not even a proper app its a website that runs from an app and really poorly as well, plus playing titles isn't particularly accessible. I think they certainly didn't consult VoiceOver users when creating the app, instead they have just assumed what we need because lets be honest the majority of there members are elderly. I think they said they were putting an update out last year to at least address the log in issues but I didn't see it get posted.
I did try giving feedback to calibre twice, the first time the woman I gave it to didn't seem particularly interested, the second time was them contacting me for it, they claimed they would listen, and I even offered to assist with beta testing and giving feedback but heard nothing after that.
I don't like the calibre audio app at all, for starters the fact it can't remember your log in details is ridiculous, plus the fact it can't detect when VoiceOver is running and disable its self voicing interface, I also didn't find searching and picking my titles easy, I deleted it from my phone within a day or so. I wish Calibre had used Overdrive, it would have been much cheaper for them and it would have probably worked ok. As I said before, trying to load books is difficult. The other thing is: what do people think of the app? I've looked at the reviews and the app only get's 1.5 stars! I'm not surprised, I find that it doesn't work too well and the swiping motions to undertake processes are non-intuitive. I then get the error message I'm not sure what's going on here but could it mean that the Calibre app thinks I've got two apps on my iPhone rather than one and I'm trying to login to a second app? I write-in my membership number and then my pin. Therefore, I deleted the app today and reinstalled it. The problem was that there was always an error in downloading tracks (this was the error message). Has anyone in the UK had similar problems to me with the Calibre Audio app? For a couple of weeks, I have had difficulties in downloading books on the app.
