The content is then grabbed and added to your book.

This is a great app for creating eBooks from web pages. It's wonderful for multi-part stories because you can combine them into the same eBook!

Unfortunately, this app just never worked. My books would load, but never got saved, and isn't that the point?

I love this app. I love Pocket, too, for making online articles easier to read. Grab My Books is conceptually similar, but adds an additional layer that's wonderful - the ability to compile articles and read them as one "piece." I've found this particularly helpful for a reading group I'm in that reads articles and essays more than books, and I've found it helpful when I've collected information on a new topic I've found intriguing. The interface could use an update, but the functionality is invaluable.

I am fan of its desktop version (for windows). However this android version fails to grab so many time. Hope developers will soon find out flaws and improve it. Please add feedback option in application itself
