@skam3709 Thank you for your help I appreciate it. I have being looking for people who use the app you are the first one to respond so thank you very much.

@Bido725 They had no issues using the apps for either the iPhone or the iPad. The only thing is that they had to get used to reading, highlighting, taking notes digitally rather than manually with a print book. My niece mentioned that she uses the iPhone app to quickly reference a table or chart from her Chemistry book rather than opening up the iPad -- one account with same books on her bookshelf. You shouldn't have any issues. Good luck!

@skam3709 Thank you very much because I was wondering about that actually then when I get my Ipad then I'll start to use the application, by the way did you or your niece and nephew have problems using the application?

[skam3709]

Yes. I've tried it out on my browser as well as on my iPad and iPhone. Works really good. Very intuitive to use. My niece and nephew are using CourseSmart textbooks at their respective universities as they have found them to have the most current digital textbooks available compared to others. And they are happy about the savings and told me they can print 150 percent of pages in the book! That's an awesome value IMO.

@skam3709 have you used CourseSmart because I'm trying to get for the Ipad and I want to know if it's worth it. So is it worth it?
