Latest reviews of Bartlett's Familiar Quotations app for iPhone and iPad

Not remotely comparable to print version
If you thought you could replace that bulky volume with a convenient app, dont waste your money (or ditch the hard copy, like I did). Im not even sure that the app is posted on the app store, which would mercifully save some other unsuspecting buyers from this fraud. For example, type in a biblical quote, such as "how have the mighty fallen." A one sentence quote is referenced to "the Holy Bible." Period. No book, chapter, line citation that would allow you to expand the quote, put it in context, or even find it in the original source. This is worse than useless; it is blatent rip off.
Deleting...
Todays quote: "I cant breathe." - Eric Garner ...Really, Bartletts? Really?
Crashes!
The new version crashed on opening even after I deleted and reinstalled it.
Problems after iOS10
The notification feature for the quotation of the day is not working.
Currently unusable
Frequently crashes, and currently the text of quotes will not display when a specific quote is selected. The app crashes whenever I try to send feedback. Its dead in the water.
