Sora, by OverDrive Education Positive Reviews
So good but one thing 🤗…..So I would say this app is one of the best reading apps for students as a student myself students that are reading this you should use it I am in something for school for reading and this app goes great with it and my friend also loves it she is right beside me so I am going to let her type a little Hi so what I want to type about it is it has a little problem but I hope the creators will reply to this and say they fixed it. Ok back to me anyways the Problem is that whenever it says hold for two weeks I go back to the app in two weeks and I still don’t get the book. Is there a reason this is happening? Any way still highly recommend this app byeeeee💌🖍️😄😀😝✌️✊!!!.Version: 7.3.0
I love sora!Sora is an online library that schools can use to make different books available for students. I love Sora and I use it every day! I like being able to read books on my phone no matter where I am. Sora is great because it has good tools to annotate and bookmark books. I also appreciate the feature of being able to look up words or names within books, and define words. One of the clunkier things about Sora is the search feature. Whenever I accidentally spell a title wrong, it doesn’t understand what I am trying to say, and I have to completely retype the title. This is an issue because a lot of book titles are complicated and difficult to spell, especially on my phone. Other than this, I love using Sora and it is one of my favorite apps..Version: 8.3.0
Love it but not waitingI am a student who loves the endless catalog of books on Sora but most of my favorite series have a long wait time. So I think what would make Sora better is that three copies of a book are the same price as one for the popular series so that all the books have a more even wait time instead of diary of a wimpy kid having a 2 month wait when a less popular book has only a 2 week wait..Version: 8.0.0
Great app must dowloadI 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 🤩📖😁.Version: 7.1.3
Love but would like a few changesI absolutely love sora. I started using it at school and this one time it almost stopped working and I almost cried. But. I would like a few changes. I absolutely hate when it says unknown wait. That means you say you have the book, but you really don’t. That’s really frustrating for me because 90% of my holes are an unknown wait. Also, I would like it to be more compatible for phones. Thank you so much! ❤️.Version: 8.1.2
Amazing, one problemI read a lot of reviews asking why their are holds and a limited amount of copies. The reason is due to the copyright agreements. The one problem I have with the app is the freeze hold mechanic. For some reason if you unfreeze your hold, you will lose the hold. Not sure if this is a glitch but it has happened multiple times. If someone could look into this I’m sure a lot of people would be grateful..Version: 9.2.3
YOU NEED TO GET ITMy 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..Version: 6.4.1
Nice but questionsOk what you really did a good job is the badges idea because for me that was make it more fun in my opinion and I unlocked all of them and one of them is really hard to get like the sweet reads and the early bird but still,it is a good app. And one thing is that when you are in 2nd grade and in my school we get sora so why do you need to download on your iPad or you iPhone? But it is a really good app. And when do you launch Sweet Reads?.Version: 9.2.0
Good at First but has some issuesI 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!.Version: 7.1.3
Sora is amazingI 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..Version: 6.4.2
The Haters are wrongFirst you have to wait for the books but that’s like almost all reading apps Second there’s more then 100k schools in the US alone so it’s really hard for them to include every single one Third off of course it doesn’t work for home schools that’s like getting mad at a library app for not including your small 30 books at home..Version: 9.2.0
🫢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.Version: 6.3.0
Amazing app 100% recommendedAmazing app strongly recommend I love the amount of book options and audio books one thing though why do we have to renew online books 😂 I think it’s funny it would also be nice to have more copies of the books instead of 1 or 2 But great app loving using it It also tracks how long I read for and gives me awards after.Version: 8.1.2
Good, but the holds?Now, i love this app but, i have a problem that CAN be fixed. HOLDS! holds are annoying and they don’t serve any purpose! This is an E BOOK. not a physical copy of a book that you have to have a wait on or buy! I think its silly because technically once you have the book in digital form, shouldn’t you have unlimited copies? Unless i’m missing something and i’m just being dumb. Please take the no holds into consideration!.Version: 7.2.0
Great Book App!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?.Version: 6.0.0
The Absolute Best!!!I think Sora is the best! I usually use it at school but I found out I could use it at home too! It’s amazing to read books, good quality, and so much more! I would to totally recommend to people k-any grade! It’s amazing, unlike other apps where you have to pay! All the books are free and so is the app! I hope u enjoy as much as I do!.Version: 8.3.0
Many OptionsThis app is offered for my school which I love. There are many options and is just like a library in the palm of my hands. Of course, there are times where they don't have the book im looking for but this does not outweigh the many popular and great books they offer. I love this app:).Version: 8.3.0
HoldsAmazing app 100% recommend as someone who falls asleep listening to audiobooks. It’s nice because there’s a sleep timer and you do not need Internet for downloaded books. The holds are annoying though, and you will have to wait a while on popular books like Percy Jackson..Version: 8.1.0
Great for young readersSora is basically like Libby but for kids I love how I can change between my school district’s books and my local library system’s books Sora has audiobooks and normal books too I use it on an iPad, it is absolutely the perfect size for this app You can also adjust the font colour and background colour so that it isn’t as bright or make it easier to read Another great feature is that you can highlight words, annotate stories, & define words in the book too If you’re second guessing this download, you should absolutely download this!.Version: 9.0.1
Good, but a MAJOR problemI love Sora as a person who sleeps listening to audiobooks. I love the endless collections of audiobooks and ebooks to choose from. The one problem is whenever I tap on the app it stays on the icon and stays like that. My iPad is up to date, so is the app. I don't know what the problem is but it REALLY pisses me off so please please please fix this before I lose my friggin patience. Thank you for reading :D.Version: 8.0.2
I Loved it, but then love started dying downI 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..Version: 6.3.0
I love this app I love this appHi 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.Version: 6.2.0
Almost perfectI love it except for the facts that sometimes you have to hold a book and that there are limits to books, meaning you can’t find every book. But those are minor inconveniences and otherwise it’s amazing..Version: 8.3.0
A little overkillIt’s a little overkill with all the account verification details, I thought it was supposed to be a fun and easy children’s app. My Dad was trying to make it work so I could listen to some audiobooks but it was just so overly complicated and frustrating. I was so excited to be able to listen, but I was a little disappointed..Version: 8.3.0
Dumb 1 star reviewsWHY 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,.Version: 6.3.0
This is one of my favorite appsI’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.Version: 6.4.2
Great App..ButIts an AMAZING app but in my opinion it takes sooooooo long to load so pls fix this if u can. Cuz when i get dont u think i want to read when i download? Think about that. 🫥 but again it is an AMAZING app. Its also really helpful at school and at at home. 😁😁 Im also obsessed with this app!.Version: 8.0.0
It’s goodIt’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.Version: 6.4.0
Too long a waitIt is so tiring to wait in line to get a popular book that has just come out. Also, when I want any kind of graphic novel, especially I Survived, I have to wait a week or more. And when I finally get the book, I never want to stop reading until it’s finished!.Version: 8.1.2
Very Good appI love this app especially since it has most of the books I want to read and most of the time the books are available.Version: 6.4.3
BruhSo I got the app it’s pretty good I love reading comics so on December 5 I place a hold for the adventures of super diaper baby and ten days later it still on hold I waited so long to get it I was like “yes I’m probably going to get to read the book” I was so excited and pow still on hold😡😡.Version: 8.0.2
Like but needs a lotta changesIt’s okay. But the problem is, it said I could have the book I had on hold, but when I clicked the bell it said” sorry we don’t have your book available anymore”.And I literally just got on Sora. Thank you for your time and service.Version: 8.3.0
!!This is the only way I can read a book and an interesting one I just wish they had more options for my age.Version: 7.0.0
Pretty goodOk, 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..Version: 6.4.4
I love this appI love this app it’s the best way too get book that you want to read and you down have to buy them.Version: 9.2.3
ExellentI love how I can access plenty of libraries through my school district some in different states even. I don’t like that they have so limited “copies” of books though. Add more copies!!.Version: 8.3.0
The bestHas all books and you do not have to get up to go to the library.Version: 8.0.0
Can’t use on other devicesGreat 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?.Version: 7.1.2
NoiceIt’s really good, instead of paying like $20 for like a single book you can borrow it for free if you’re in a school that has sora..Version: 8.1.2
Sora whyI 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..Version: 7.1.3
Life changingSora 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.Version: 7.1.2
Landscape mode problemI love reading in portrait mode but I keep getting stuck in landscape mode and it’s Sora not my phone I don’t know how to fix it and there should be a setting for portrait or landscape mode.Version: 6.3.0
Better BooksThe app is good, but it needs a wider range of books..Version: 9.2.3

Hope this might helpFor anyone who is wondering how to find their school (because I sure was) you don’t search the school, you search the school board..Version: 1.6.4
WeirdI like the point of this but i don’t get it because this app was supposed to take out the inconvenience of library return dates and not having enough copies so what’s the point cool tho.Version: 3.0.2
MehTakes lots of space on any device so watch out also it freezes alot but other wise its good.Version: 5.0.1

Great, and why bad-mouth it?Sora is a great app with great books and a wide variety between the books, so why bad-mouth it? Maker of Sora, do not listen to these people bad-mouthing your app, and keep on doing a great job giving people books. P.S. could there PLEASE be more Star Wars books?.Version: 5.2.0
Mangas are good!It was very good. I enjoyed reading a lot more :) Hopefully it helps encourage people to read?.Version: 5.0.4

Awesome!This app is awesome and lets me read my book in peace. Recommend to anyone! 👍👍.Version: 5.0.0
I Can Read During Quarantine!!!This app is the best! I have had it for a while with my school but never really used it. Once my school and the public libraries closed I couldn’t read any new books! I started playing around with the app seeing which books they had and reading/listing to samples. This got me borrowing books such as Harry Potter. It was fun listing to books while doing other stuff like painting or cleaning! I admit the login proses was a bit confusing because you have to pick you’re school board, but other then that haven't had any issues. Would recommend this app if you aren’t able to get real books, although I do prefer real books 😝..Version: 4.0.0
