@HughesDirect your website seems to have got its maths wrong, by £25. Not quite sure what to do about this. Will you refund the error if I go ahead with the purchase?

@AdobeCare hello, can’t seem to find how to get rid of these very annoying ‘AI summary’ things in Reader for iPad. They’re taking up valuable screen space and making the app much harder to use. How do I get rid of them permanently? Thanks.

The majority of the tools have disappeared, and the ones that remain are far too small. I get you're trying to make it more like InDesign etc., but it's fine as it is.

Special mention for this one, which my dad picked out for me years ago, but then my mum lost (lol). He introduced me to both Dante and Doré and I wish he was still here to see how much I love this

Well this really sucks. I need an online Oxford dictionary, and I don't want to use @Dictionarycom because of their tracking practices 🙁🙁🙁
