This is what we get from EBSCOhost for all the money that they get paid for managing a database All we need is one company to offer it for a fraction less but with more robust search capabilities and they ll be out of business in a week For the amount of money we pay for tuition and in turn that goes to Ebsco publishing through library budgets there should have been more development for searching in general but also things like this app a long long time ago We are gouged as students for tuition and then not given appropriate updates for a world class database system This is why we need a better publishing and distribution system for the academic world I can t save a PDF into another program on the iPad because the screen popups go off the edge of the screen The whole thing looks horrific on an iPad in general There are also not many substantial searching options Similar to the infinitely inferior search engine on EBSCOhost this does not work Needs a serious competitor to put them out of business Jack...S
Please just be more like google or just stop trying Dudes u can do better Yeatyeyeat
I have two complaints about this app 1 Lack of an iPad version Using the iPhone app on a tablet doesn t take advantage of the larger screen 2 Lack of support for 3rd party keyboards I routinely use the Swype keyboard and it does not work in the app I am forced to use the inferior default Apple keyboard D Incomplete Non vzw fan
This is a great resource to search for papers on the go but nothing else If you try to save them the app crashes You can email them to yourself but that s it I hope they fix the crashing issue Would be great except it crashes djalixer
App worked great for a minute but now it freezes EVERY time I try to save or open as PDF Hope there is a fix for this Can t save or open as PDF tprizzle*

A frustrating waste of time You can search but the moment you click on save or email or anything at all it freezes and crashes Then you get to start your searches all over again Rinse repeat AVOID There s no zero stars Mistypilgrim
I don t understand how this app has been so neglected The interface is out of date It doesn t fit the iPhone screen any more There s no iPad version at all I m not expecting academic research apps to be cutting edge exactly But this app no longer even reflects the mobile needs of researchers iPads iPhones and the like have been around for a while now Please let s adapt Shouldn t this be updated troywise
Crashes all the time The feature to save articles doesn t work because it crashes so much This app is a crashaster Kietduchuynh
Trying to write a report completely useless Just news articles tarlaws
Possibly nice app but not supported by my library Mine uses overdrive and zinio There should be an easy way to check which library supports ebsco Now uninstall Update turns out that my company does support this Not for my library ch@r!0t<
Unlike their website EBSCO s app is virtually useless as an academic search tool providing few refinement options in a simplistic yet kludgy feeling interface It s unfortunately not worth the convenience of having reliable sources of information in your pocket you re better off just using the desktop site Needs Serious Redesign Vy_let
This app needs to be updated to work properly on the new ios Also an iPad version would be great to read those articles in a bigger screen Needs an Update Gustavo Mendez

I was hoping I would be able to read articles I saved in my folders on my account online through this app on my ipad Because it doesn t sync I don t see a point This app isn t very helpful I don t use my ipad for heavy searching that is easier on a computer But I do use an ipad for reading journal articles Please add the sync feature Need ipad version and syncing with online folders Dbw1929383883
This app never came back with any searches very hard to even find what ur looking for Deleting ASAP glad I didn t buy it Not so great Nora Ruiz
I love this app It is a wonderful tool for consolidating information and searching for new information The only criticism I have is there has been no efforts at updating and no iPad version I STILL USE THIS APP So please keep giving it attention iPad Version Please RchetA
I always get no results for everything I type in Will not find any of my topic A left4dead hunter
Come on guys this app would be so much better on then iPad Even better if my saved articles on my account could show up in the app as well It s 2013 where s the update to support iPhone 5 and iPad TimPham
EBSCOhost prides itself in its work This app is not one of them Not only is this app not iphone 5 optimized there is also not an ipad version Poor preparation in modernization on EBSCOhost s side Furthermore it does not support background multitasking meaning it does not go back to what you were searching if you leave the app Poor poor dedication Behind the times Jason Couch
Fast results and good simple interface But SAVE TO function crashes the app on my iPhone 5 with iOS 6 1 4 Fast but no Save To Renata Liew
So I can actually find articles I m looking for that s the good part But I can t save a PDF to my iPad because selecting the Save To function crashes the app Emailing an 11MB PDF is not so practical No iPad app and no Save To function ParisRoubaix
I don t know why everyone s complaining about setup it s incredibly easy Just go to your library s ebscohost site click the link at the bottom of the page and enter your email address It could have more advanced search options and the save to button doesn t work but you can email the article to yourself so it s no problem Very good app Joshg92
This app does nothing to streamline my research process In fact it does the opposite The withholding of feature the bad design and the lack of easy access to my library s subscription to ebsco make this app more time consuming than just using a web browser and printing out an article Why are the academic journals always the last place on earth that see progressions in technology Niche borderline useless WeldonAndCrystal

I love having access to EBSCOhost but there are some serious issues with this app 1 I prefer to read articles on my iPad Using the iPhone version is ok but you really need an iPad app 2 Very limited search capabilities It would be much more user friendly if you could search by author titles dates etc 3 It crashes when you hit the Save To button which makes it useless for reading off line Fix this please Functionality Issues Orquidea^7
I have deleted the app and reinstalled several times but to no avail As soon as I click the Save to button the app freezes up and I have to exit to use again This was a great app before not sure what happened but it no longer serves the purpose for which I downloaded it Hope an update comes out soon Can t Print Anymore dolly329
1 Download app from App Store 2 Go to your institution s online library 3 Open the Ebsco search database 4 Click on link at bottom about this app 5 fill out brief form with a valid email address 6 open app 7 Open email from Ebsco ON YOUR iPHONE 8 Click on link in email that authorizes the app 9 Enjoy using app You ll also need a PDF reader installed on your device as well The reason to get the email from through your institution is to link your iPhone to their subscription with Ebsco In short this is not an app that you merely download and use It has to be linked to an active subscription The only drawback is that I cannot access what I save on the phone on my computer Instructions on making the app work Garythebrave
I recently downloaded this app but I cannot enter it or access the database I have tried entering as a guest and tried using the link that was sent through email from ebsco I just get a network error message instead Very disappointing Does not work vanessaber
It was great for a few months I loved it Now it will not process the key to connect to my institution FIX IT It doesn t work anymore Mkr1000
Just downloaded this app and it cannot access anything Also a confirmation of the user that reported that there was supposed to be a link at the bottom of the screen is not there Which is the link that is apparently the key part to activating the app to the ebscohost database If it worked Uncivil
When you open the app it says click link at the bottom of the page only problem is that there is no link and the help button doesn t work AND I cannot log in as a guest So in conclusion nothing about the app works Doesn t work Cgosen
This is my smart Google Love it rogergreatdanian
This is a great app I use it daily Thank you and keep up the good work Awesome cal0718
It worked fine for me until the last update Now it keeps telling me nothing was found no matter what I searched for Not working after the last update

Fast results and good simple interface But SAVE TO function crashes the app on my iPhone 5 with iOS 614 Fast but no Save To
The app tells me to hit the button at the bottom of the app to set up my phone This sounds easy but there one problemTHERE IS NO BUTTON And the help menu offers no help What button
You guys need to develop the iPad version its kind of ridiculous you guys made it for the iPhone and not the iPad Also allow for refinement by date Other than that great idea of an app Get the iPad version soon
Subject line says it all App freezes up has unintuitive interface no idea how the save feature works etc etc Bottom line library web site search engine works 10x better Wish I could give negative star for time wasted Junk Terrible App
If your school or business subscribes to ebsco you should check this app out Great pocket sized research tool
This app is essential for the student in the go It it smooth I never have issues and is great for research when you have time here and there A great feature is it displays in Cover Flow when you tilt it to landscape AWESOME AWESOME

It was great for a few monthsI loved it Now it will not process the key to connect to my institution FIX IT It doesnt work anymore
There is no way to save all articles to EBSCOhost folders or external apps rather than having to email each one Also what ever you do on the app isnt reflected on the web version For instance you cannot access your saved searches from the mobile app on the web app Will it kill you guys to have put an email all button under saved articles I have 1000 articles and I am not about to sit down email each one separately So this app is absolutely useless to me if it doesnt sync back to the web version Absolutely useless if no way to link back to main website
Cant actually download the ebooks from the search results so whats the point Cant download
I always get no results for everything I type in Will not find any of my topic
I was hoping I would be able to read articles I saved in my folders on my account online through this app on my ipad Because it doesnt sync I dont see a point This app isnt very helpful I dont use my ipad for heavy searching that is easier on a computer But I do use an ipad for reading journal articles Please add the sync feature Need ipad version and syncing with online folders

I cant save a PDF into another program on the iPad because the screen popups go off the edge of the screen The whole thing looks horrific on an iPad in general There are also not many substantial searching options For the amount of money we pay for tuition and in turn that goes to Ebscon through library budgets there should have been more development for this app a long long time ago Last update in Nov 2011 This is plain unacceptable in an academic world We are gouged as students for tuition and then not given appropriate updates for a world class database system Need an iPad version
Cant access anything Cant search by author or title Search results make no sense How is this supposed to work Cant read or listen to anything Useless
This is a great app I use it daily Thank you and keep up the good work Awesome

This seems like an app that should be aimed towards the iPad in my opinion Overall does exactly what its suppose to and thats good This is a must have for students who have accounts Could have made an iPad version
