Amazon's Kindle app is an even bigger offender in this category. It shows your library as a 4 x 4 grid of tiny cover thumbnail on your phone, so there is no hope whatsoever of reading a title.

So you click one, and what does it do? It downloads the whole book then drops you in at whatever page you last read, then hides the book title and author.

Unless you can recognize the cover photo (which changes to match the latest edition), there is really no way to know what you're going to get except to guess.
