  • Good app 👍

    I gave feedback in-app but I think I’d like to retract what I said there. The search feature is good actually. I would like to be able to exclude tags from search results though, because it seems no matter what I search, I will always get mafia romance in the results lol 😭 I would also still appreciate if it would give me slightly more specific results (IE if I search for #dystopian #romance I’m gonna get a lot of non-romance books, so it seems like romance is a light suggestion lol)
    But the search feature isn’t useless at all, and does still take romance into account for example lol. Would like the possibility of making tags required or optional if that makes sense, but it’s still quite usable without such a feature.

    I apologize for my confusion in my in-app feedback, I’d just woken up in the middle of the night and wasn’t 100%

    I do also want to say that I love the content warning feature. That kind of thing is what other apps like Wattpad are incredibly lacking in. SO MANY people have stories about being traumatized as kids from surprise bad stuff like r*pe in stories, and I’ve personally dropped several good books because of surprise triggers, so the ability to hide stories with your specific content warnings is very very appreciated. It’s always very sad for me when I can’t manage to continue a book that I’ve already come to like :(

    I’ll likely be using Inkitt more often going forward. Much love.

  • Love it

    This app is amazing. It has thousands of books. Some are advertisements to get you to go to another site to pay. Most of them are complete additions for free. It does have a few minor glitches like you can read the the end of each chapter or by tapping on icons, letting the author know if they had good character development, you loved it it was funny you know stuff like that but half the time you tap, and nothing shows up. You can also comment after every single chapter and the end of the book. You can write on the authors wall. You can see what other books the author has rated and recommendations from authors to authors. it even has features where you can subscribe and support the authors financially. It’s a great app with a big genre of books that are intriguing.

  • Too many glitches and horrible contact support

    I have tried to write newer books but the glitches made it impossible. I would try to copy and paste it over from other apps I publish on and it would put text over text while also not showing the full text I copied. It would delete when I closed out the chapter. I can’t even delete the book entirely after I made a new one.

    I have emailed the app months ago and I heard back from someone, I forget who, but they asked me to send information like my phone type and version of the app. After I told them, they said they will contact me back after they fixed the issue and I haven’t heard from them since. I deleted the app after that seeing how I couldn’t write on it. I just got it back and it’s STILL doing the same exact glitch.

    It’s irritating and a waste of time. There are plenty of other writing apps that are better.

  • I love this reading app, but…

    I really enjoy reading on this app a lot more than other reading apps, but the only thing that I don’t enjoy is the fact that I have to click on the story just to read the description of the story, and if the description is it giving me a lot of insight I have to read the story, but if I go further into the story is saves in to my reading history, even if I didn’t like it, and I have to take my time, go back and delete it out of my history just read another story. But I do love that it’s free. I don’t have to pay any money to remove ads or to continue reading and that is what I enjoy the most. I would just love it if you guys were able to make a description section so that way we can read the description and see if we like it or not. It would just save.
    But for all the authors riders on the app, a lot of the stories the majority of the stories are absolutely amazing. I haven’t found one yet that I do not like. Keep up the good work and thank you for your time.

  • Inkitt

    Please help me, I have this app on a different device and I really wanted to download it on this device and whenever I try to open Inkitt it opens BUT it brings me to a black screen and I can’t use Inkitt! In my opinion Inkitt is a great app and I recommend it to people who like to read romance and things like that because I also use it but I'm not sure if I'm the only one having this problem with Inkitt so please help!

    I also have this problem now that whenever I confirm my e-mails, and reload Inkitt, it always says, ‘Confirm your e-mail!’ I already confirmed it 100,000,000 times but it’s never working!!! And I NEED to confirm my e-mail because I’m tryna write a new romance story and it doesn’t work because it doesn’t allow me to save the summary!. PLUS I really wanna follow this amazing author!

  • All stories

    I have truly enjoyed being able to read all of the stories on Inkitt. I have read probably close to 600 at this time and the only problem that I have is that people who are writing from another language, trying to translate into English has some continuity problems, spelling problems and grammatical errors. Most of them I can overlook or I can understand what’s being said by reading the context that sometimes I can’t, and I think it would would be a great help to all of the riders to have someone who speaks English to edit is incorrect these problems that way their stories will be. Will be able to be read by anyone who speaks English I know this is maybe a picky point but I’ve had to discard some stories because of the errors that I have found that it is hard to punctuation isn’t a big deal to me, obviously, but spelling and using words that don’t fit the context our problem I want to enjoy all of the stories here and I want everyone story to be told here so if you could encourage someone to edit these stories, I would appreciate it that’s not all stories, but there have been quite a few that have been not that I didn’t go ahead and read them but it just didn’t add anything to the story, so please please encourage English reading editors so that everyone’s story can be read. Thank you.

  • Fabulous

    I love this app! The community here is so awesome and supportive, I feel like this is my little escape. My only problem is, sometimes my comments and things don’t show up, or when I’m typing out a story, the words will freeze and then I have to start the paragraph over again. All the amazing feedback here though is fabulous, and I can push through the errors, but I did want to let you guys know. It really is a fabulous app, 10/10 :)

  • New Update

    The overall app is really good. I like the adverse book genres. I also like how you can start up your own righting fantasy’s for free. Another thing I like about this app is that it’s all free. However, something in the past I really enjoyed was that you could read offline, that is currently unable with the new update. Which I find to be a big let down. I enjoyed reading my favorite books on the go, wether it was with or without internet and with the current update it does not allow such.

    The app is overall really good and it really allows you too find the perfect book. It allows you too also find a book that you might have never even thought to look at. The only complaint is that I wish they kept the off internet availability.

  • A fantastic app, but prone to bugs and crashes

    I really enjoy Inkitt and it’s home to amazing stories and authors. However, lately every time I open the app I can’t access my discover page or the search feature. It’s all blank like it’s loading but never does. I’ve tried restarting my networks and logging back in but it still comes up blank. I even updated the app and nothing works for me. I came to the reviews to see if anyone was having similar issues and multiple people are. A completely blank screen or a continuous loading screen.

  • Amazing Book App

    Tons of completed books, completed series, and stories still in the process! Every author I’ve read so far has amazing talent!!! Every kind of Genre of book you could ever want! If you can’t find a book here then you need to find a new hobby! This app is 100% amazing. There are no audio books. But Galatea a sister app has a bunch! I have a subscription to Galatea definitely worth the money and Inkitt it’s an amazing bonus app Galatea pointed me too….
