Sora, by OverDrive Education

Sora is a great app for all ages to read any genre. My school library doesn’t have all the books I like, but that’s not Sora’s fault. I’m honestly a Wattpad reader but I like the books you can find on Sora. One thing though, I know it’s a library but why a waitlist? You can’t just individually copy?

ppl are saying it’s bad when it’s not??? it’s actually SO good. i’ve given up on reading online after my favorite sites were taken down, stopped being funded, etc. of course, i don’t mean that i’ve stopped reading AT ALL, but rather on my phone. to be honest, i actually dislike reading online. but the formatting of this app is easy to use, good-looking, and overall enjoyable to use! it’s easy to get the hang of it. there are lots of different kinds of books here, from popular ones to even manga! and Sora has a lot of manga! the only problem i have with Sora is the fact that you can only “borrow” books for 20 days…but whatever! i still love this app. i CANNOT thank my best friend enough for telling me about this app, and sharing her account with me!!! ilysm <3

I love this app and I use it a lot. Some people complain on their reviews that they have to wait 6 weeks for a book but that’s because the books you check out on this app is shared with hundreds of people. There is a huge variety of books to choose from and genres like romance, fantasy, manga, fiction, and so much more. Not only are there normal books there are also audio books. My whole class loves it and it’s great odor trips or when you can’t go to the library very often. YOU HAVE TO DOWNLOAD THIS AMAZING APP 🤩📖😁

My hole class loves it and we will beg to read on it. For the people that have issues with it sry but I LOVE it 😍😍🤩🤩 I have read like 55 books with no problems and it’s probably just a internet issue or something and don’t be sry about making us get it. Also whoever made this app I LOVE IT don’t feel bad about the glitch in there system. PS I am in 4th grade so I LOVE It to right a report on it so don’t worry mcs Elementary school has NO bad things about Sora.

I got this on my phone because I like reading and I couldn’t always go to my schools library, and at first it was great. I personally don’t mind the 2 book limit and the loan time isn’t an issue because I read really fast, however now when I place a loan for a book and I’m the only one in line it says unknown wait time. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don’t know if that was intended but I think I’ve had a hold on a book for about 2 months! If there is something to be done about this that would be great!

I love sora and have used it for years. I don’t read books, I listen to audiobooks. I have finished hundreds and have had only a few problems. First, I think that you should be able to speed up past 3x speed because I would love to listen at 4 or even 5 times speed. (Yes, I know I sound insane) Also some books just cut out at parts so maybe look into that. Overall, great app.

I think the idea is pretty good . I would love though if there were more copies of each book for example every month my reading teacher picks two books that most of the grade has to read. A lot of people borrow the books on Sora but you usually have to wait along time for them sometimes even after the month is over .but yeah that’s all bye

I loved readin off of sora because i can read a book before actually getting the book, but then all of a sudden i tried borrowing a book but the thing said for me to sign in again but this time my district im in isnt on the list for some reason. Im hoping you could help this out and so i can start reading my books i want to read.

Hi am I love this app I hope you know that you slay for making your boy or a girl I love it and you stop all day I never stop using it I love it I love it I love it I love it I love it I love it I love it I love it you get them and I just really like it you know I am I don’t think you’ve ever gotten review like this anyway love it

WHY ARE PEOPLE GIVING A 1 STAR TO THIS APP AND THEY SAY, “I hate reading.” Bro, do you know how this impacts the company and the overall rating. Also I recommend connecting to your local library instead of a school library since it has more books,

I’ve used it for the audiobooks but it’s much better than reading and get to experience it by listening not just reading I love the app and I hope I can inspire you to try it

It’s great I use it for school and battle of the books but I don’t get the wait list when the books are online I recommend if you don’t want to pay for a book app and your school provides it

Long story short, THIS APP IS BUGGY and shouldn’t be used. This app is just horrible. Every single time I check out a book and begin to read, it never saves the spot I was in. I constantly spend so much of my reading time just trying to find my place. Also a couple times the book I’m reading will just close automatically and then bam I have to find my page yet again. Would not recommend.

I love this app especially since it has most of the books I want to read and most of the time the books are available

This is the only way I can read a book and an interesting one I just wish they had more options for my age

Ok, I’m a kid who uses this app in school and there is one big problem that needs to be fixed. I wanted to check out diary of a wimpy kid and I realized that it wasn’t in the app, but then my friend checked out the very next day, but my app was up to date with the latest version. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM.

I’m very unsatisfied because I use to love this app but ever since it’s new update it has kicked me out of Sora! All I see is the guy in the cover while all the books I was reading were getting back to the library and that’s it I can’t take it I’m gonna delete this app in 4 days if don’t get better!😡

I love Sora don’t get me wrong. Buttt I hate having to wait 3 weeks for a book that got returned because I didn’t finish it within the wait time.

i looove this app and use it every day for audiobooks. my school library bought 100s of books for sora and it’s super helpful how you can assign books. the only thing is i wish it was supported with Siri so you can tell Siri to play a book on sora.

Great app but a hassle to log in on any other device than your school device. Also it’s online why do you have to wait for a book?

Sora is a life changer and so much better than Epic and Reading IQ There are so many books and badges to earn and reading.I love it

Downloaded app but can't continue until I agree to Sora collecting information about me. No option to opt out, no details I could find letting me know what information they are collecting, storing, sharing, selling. Disappointed.

Can’t log in after most recent software update. It’s middle of summer break; can’t check out new ebooks, audiobooks or magazines. Can’t renew books. No one to check with at school bc: ITS SUMMER BREAK. Very disappointed. Hope my students are having more luck.

I was listening to the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows audiobook close to the due date, and it just turned off and I found out it checked itself in. why? Sora you should fix this.

Love it but the sign up takes a long time (at least for me)

I can’t see the New York City Department of education. My teacher said if I don’t see it then click my school isn’t listed, but I still can’t find it.

I’m on this app like 24-7 I love except literally one minute ago it deleted my account I think, so me 😡

Great when it works however it has been crashing all summer. After taking recommended steps for problems on the sora website I contacted sora and they were dismissive and no help. “Ask your teacher or tech support,” was the response?!?!

I use sofa on my computer all the time but on the iPad my passwords are NOT WORKING!!!!!! Do not get this app unless you know what you’re passwords are. The only reason I gave it stars is because I like it on my computer but still PASSWORDS!!!!!!!!!

ok so i got this app like 4 years ago and now it won’t work when i click it just loads forever and idk what to do but other then that there are good books on sora

please please fix this sora your app is genuienly easy to use and i love reading on it, but the young adult romance i want to read is unavailable for me. i’m in high school and i’m in the allowed age to read these books 😭😭 it’s really annoying please fix it

This app had a very good potential but there is a limit to how many people can take out a book at a time. This makes no sense because it is online!

No longer works with the DOE to allow staff and students to borrow books, which would have been great for the summer. First could not borrow books. Now cannot even login.

Some glitches though

The app is okay except for the fact that you have to WAIT for a book if someone is reading it even though it’s an online app. Idk I just think it’s stupid. :|

Good app but I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THE 36 STORY TREEHOUSE TO READ BUT I CAN’T GET THE BOOK!!

I was just going to say I love the idea

So the problem is that I can’t find my school but if I type my school name there’s none of the above.

It logged me into my sisters account and I can’t get back to my own

This app is terrible. I apologize for all the students forced to get it.

More like Dora like who needs books L app rate it 1 star

Not loading

Glitchy bad

So if your like me and you LOVEEEEEEE READING read this. Also developers READ THIS! I downloaded Sora cause I use it in school and I absolutely loved it and thought to try it at home. So I got it on my iPad. But the problems and results on it were just too 😡STUPID😡! I have had loved it but then it started to decrease. Is it just me or does it work better on a computer?! Below is what I HATE AND recommend! 1. So since I love to read I always go to Sora cause there is more options. And I am ALWAYS reading. Most of the books I read are series! AND THIS STUPUD THING IS STOPPING ME TO READ!! If your wondering what it is, it’s that thing “you borrowed too many books in a short time please try AGAIN”. Can you please please take this away? 2. The thing that stops us from borrowing. OUR LOAN LIMIT. It makes sense for you to pu it at 2 but that is not the best number! Can you increase it to like 6? 3. The one thing that is ALWAYS there, LAG. My Internet is really fine! Then why does Sora lag so much?! This bug better go away. I already have too much complaints on Sora. 4. GLiTcH. Sora glitches way too much! It takes me out of my books ALOT. And whenever I scroll up it goes DOWN 😡. I know you, developers, can’t take this away but CAN YOU TRY 😡!? There are other complaints that I have but I don’t want to fill this page up. It seems ever so called “update” SHOWS ME BAD LUCK. I AM DELETING SORA PERMANENTLY IF THIS DOES NOT GO AWAY. Wow that sure was an angry rant. Thank you for reading this and developers please please please please please fix this thank you! Your reader, Lovelovelovestars
