Pretty good, could have been great. No sync across devices for the bookmarks. No annotations for archaic text. I would pay for those additions, Of the Pro offerings, the pricing is weird, buy all seperatly for a fiver or pay a tenner to buy them all together??? Otherwise, probably the best app for The Bard.

Love this app. The only thing it could use is the annotations that some editions like Signet give to the language. Beyond that, it's an excellent app and well thought out.

Great App but cannot find prices of buy/Pro features, nor am I able to get response when selecting Buy Now. Should check grammar too; for example, in Search Tips it should read 'fewer words' not 'less words.'

It's a fun tool in one's pocket. Main gripe is Search should have ability to match exact phrase. "Come Away" should not bring up 4000+ results for every instance of the word "Come" and "Away." Samsung Galaxy user.

This app is the best of any of the Shakespeare apps by far. The plays are high quality, the search feature works great, and the First Folio editions are a lifesaver. If you're looking for one app for everything Shakespeare, this is it. I love using Shakespeare Passport for freebies. Get this NOW!

It takes more than one minute to open - please fix this. It would also be very helpful if we could access the Dramatis Personae from wherever scenes we're currently reading, because the way it is now, it is too bothersome

It's almost a great app but the smallest font size available (15) is still about 3 times too big to read normally.

It wud be better if a link is provided for the dramatis personae page everywhere through the scenes. Its irksome to navigate all the way through the pages to view the dramatis personae list while in the middle of the play.

Good versions of such texts as I've read, and even if you buy all optional extras it's pretty cheap. Character highlighting is a nice feature, but it's a little simplistic (doesn't catch lines shared between multiple characters). Shame Much Ado isn't covered by Folio/Quarto addon.
