After downloading and watching this application I found a very helpful piece for students who currently studying English literature and want to read the play and looking for characters or places in the play then you will found it easily in this application in scene breakdown. However,this application is only and all about William Shakespeare. Although, I searched everywhere but didn't found any application like this , so I'm requesting to dev about same application for all famous dramas.

Can there be an option to highlight lines and save them? I know there's a lengthy quotes page but I'm wanting one that I could personalize. I know there's bookmarking but that doesn't capture the specific lines. Thanks for this app, helps a lot 👍

Great app. Thank you for your time & effort. Give me thine ear! Some achieve greatness. So I feel this app would be made great-er by 2 things: 1. Adding a feature that allows one's search To Be (or Not? preferably the former though) within one or two, maybe even 3 plays only. Currently, the search option looks for things in the entire collection (can b tedious) 2. Being able to copy&paste sentences 4 stars until this changes - The fault is not in the stars - I desire 2 much of a good thing :)
