Everand review

Pros and cons

Who it suits

• Readers who want audiobooks, ebooks and podcasts under a single subscription rather than a reading only service.
• Listeners who can pace a credits balance and care more about breadth than an open ended library.
• People who travel, since offline is a yes and downloads work without a connection.

Who should look elsewhere

• Anyone who wants a plan priced by the month without metered access, since access runs on credits here.
• Readers on a tight budget who will weigh $11.99 against AfriKDP at $3 before anything else.
• Anyone counting on keeping downloads after cancelling, since keep after cancel is a no on Everand.

Where it sits among rivals

On catalogue titles, Everand ranks 1 of 20 brands compared, and the library is where it pulls clear of the field. Price tells a flatter story. The monthly rate ranks 8 of 22 brands on price a month, while the entry figure ranks 13 of 24 brands on price from. The honest reading is a product that wins on breadth and settles mid field on cost. Readers ranking reading and listening apps by library size will shortlist Everand early; readers ranking purely by the cheapest join price will look elsewhere first.

Pricing

The cost picture comes down to a pair of numbers. The Everand plan lists at $11.99 a month, and entry pricing starts at $11.99. Both figures read the same, which means the opening rate matches the recurring rate rather than acting as a discounted first bill, so budgeting on $11.99 repeating gives a fair picture of what a year of the subscription asks. The two numbers also sit in the same currency, so there is no conversion to think about when you compare. Put $11.99 and $11.99 side by side with the monthly rate of other reading and listening apps before settling, since the rate is the part you feel every month.

What it does well

Depth and trial length are the draws. The catalogue runs to 1,500,000 titles, and the free trial lasts 7 to 30 days, which gives room to find out whether credit paced borrowing suits you before anything is charged. Offline is a yes, so titles can be downloaded and opened away from a connection, and listening works the same way as reading on that basis. The counterweight is keep after cancel, which is a no: downloads and any credit you have not spent do not survive the end of the subscription, so the library reads as rented rather than owned. For a reader moving between a screen and headphones, breadth plus offline access is the package.

Who runs it

Everand is operated by Scribd, Inc., so the subscription, the charges and the published help pages all sit under a single company name instead of an unnamed seller. That is the entity to deal with at renewal or in a dispute, and it means the service has a named parent rather than a trading label alone. Support runs on help centre only, so help is written and self directed: a question about a charge or a credit balance gets an answer on the page rather than a live conversation.
