It seems like you pay more and get less. It seems all of the books I want to read or listen to have to be “unlocked.” It wasn’t like that before. I canceled my subscription and will look elsewhere.

They not only changed the rules and allow you to read ONLY 1 book with standard subscription and 3 with “Premium” one, but when I cancelled my subscription beforehand, even though I still had free trial for another 20 days or so, I couldn’t even use the 2 out of my 3 unlocks. In general, I wouldn’t recommend, it’s super expensive for what you get. They’ve become absolutely horrendous and disappointing. Won’t be coming back.

Horrible!! When it was Scrib it was absolutely wonderful. Now I can’t even play an audiobook longer than 15 minutes and it goes to buffering. I can be right next to my connection and it’s still buffers. I would look for an alternative. It’s so frustrating. I have to turn off my phone and turn it back on again in order for it to work, half the time that doesn’t resolve the issue. I will be canceling my membership.

It used to be one of fave app… But I cancelled and hope they won’t keep charging me like others have experienced. I paid my subscription for this month but I can’t access any book. It’s not even that they’re locking stuff because I’ve already listened to too much stuff, I’ve had access to 0 book. The app keeps telling me I need to subscribe (which I am) and when I click on said « subscribe » button it tells me I am already subscribed… I’ve tried everything (updated it, logged out, uninstalled,..) but nothing changes. Of course I’ve filled a report but they don’t bother answering

Say they have books in stock to download. The second you sign up they change your unavailable. Don’t waste your time. Use audible.

Hey there, Simon! We're so sorry that you were looking for a certain title, but it was not available once you started your subscription with us - that sounds quite frustrating. We'd like to look into this! If you could please open a support ticket using the form on this link, we'd be happy to help: http://bit.ly/social-support-help. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we look forward to hearing from you! -MW

New subscriptions are poor; all the books you want to read are locked. No longer worth the money.
Response from EverandMay 16, 2025
Hello Samuel, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. I completely understand how disappointing it is to see something you’ve cherished transform, especially when Everand provided a unique experience that you enjoyed so much. Our decision to change the system was not made lightly. We’ve heard from many in our community about the need for more transparency and a broader selection of bestselling and new release titles. While the previous model allowed extensive access, it often came with hidden limitations, like sudden content unavailability or access throttling, which we know caused frustration. The new unlock system aims to provide more control and predictability, so you can select the books you want without those unexpected restrictions. With Everand, we’re committed to offering competitive pricing while delivering great value. Subscriptions start at just $11.99 USD/month for access to 1 premium title, compared to similar services that often begin at $14.95 USD. Our Plus plan, at $16.99 USD for 3 premium titles per month, provides even more value compared to other platforms, which typically charge $22.95 USD for only 2 titles. Additionally, any titles you unlock remain accessible for the duration of your subscription, and if you ever need to cancel, they’ll still be there if you decide to rejoin with the same email. This means you’ll never lose your favorite reads or listens if you return. We’re also excited to be expanding our catalog to include over 150K new titles, in addition to the unlimited content, so there’s even more to explore and enjoy. We recognize this is a significant shift and may feel like a step away from what made Everand special. We’re incredibly grateful for the time you’ve spent discovering hidden gems on Everand, and we’re truly sorry if the new system doesn’t align with your needs. Your feedback is invaluable, and we’re committed to evolving based on what our community shares. Have a wonderful day, and please let me know if I can assist with anything else! -GM

Fell in for the hype of all the good books without having to wait and getting 3 books a month. The ONLY reason this review gets a second star is for the not waiting for some titles I want aspect. 1. Any and all well known titles you have to use an unlock for. 2. Those 3 credits books each month that pay for are not really yours. See what they don’t tell you is that if you don’t use them all every month, you lose them. Yup you could pay they for months and never get anything from it. 3. The app crashes ALL the time. I constantly have to log out and back in because it crashes when you pause the book and will not play again until you do. Oh and bonus, customers service is not fun to deal with either.
Response from EverandMay 9, 2025
Hello Kelly, Thank you for reaching out. We do apologize for any trouble. Most of our titles now are premium and require an unlock. If you run out of unlocks, we do have an unlimited catalog here: https://www.everand.com/unlimited. The unlocked titles are yours to keep as long as the subscription stays active. Fear not, even if your subscription is canceled, your unlocked titles will be waiting for you upon resubscribing. Unlocks do not roll over, so we do encourage our customers to use their unlocks before their next unlock renewal date. We have more information about our plans here: https://support.scribd.com/hc/en-us/articles/29859144648596-Plus-and-Standard-plans-on-Everand-now-in-the-US-and-UK We are also very sorry to hear you are having issues with the app. We would like to troubleshoot this with you directly. Please open up a support ticket here: Please just open up a ticket here: http://bit.ly/social-support-help. This will go directly to our inbox, and we will be able to help you ASAP. -GM
