  • Love the concept

    I truly love the concept of this app, I just think it could be more efficient in terms of the lagging/glitches. For example, when saving a draft it only saves the title. And when trying to edit a post it only allows you to edit the title. I love the Newsfeed because it exposes me to various different authors regardless of if I’m following them or not. I do think it would be helpful to be able to search users though! Overall, love the app!

  • Decent, could use more features

    The writing interface is clunky and glitched out? There’s always two blue lines on the sides, as if text is selected outside the box somehow. The double-tap to edit text feature is a little annoying, and there’s no option for copy paste. Thus it’s impossible to move around stanzas or to publish something you wrote elsewhere. This is probably the biggest issue and the most annoying part

    Also, it would be nice to have dark mode and the ability to unlike poems.

  • Connection Problem

    Every time I try to register, it keeps saying, “Connection Problem: So sorry! There was an error while processing your request. Please try again later.” And I thought there was problem with my connection either on WiFi or with me using data, but apparently, that wasn’t the case. It’s the actual connection problem that you guys have on this app. I’ve literally tried registering over and over again but then had eventually quit trying due to the fact that it was frustrating me so much. Please fix this issue, and this app in general. It’s really frustrating and hard to even navigate through the app itself, and I’m really frustrated with the process of it. Please do something. I would really like to use this app, but I can’t cause I feel trapped due to the issues associated with it causing me to be angry all the time since I can’t really ever register. Oh, my goodness!

  • I like the old version better

    I would rate a five star, but I much prefer the old version. I came back to this app after a long break because I never downloaded it on my new phone, and it’s very different. I miss the simplicity of the box design. It was so much easier and pleasing to read the poems when instead of it just being a bland post where you have to click “Read more”, each poem was placed on a customizable box and when you scrolled through, you saw the entire poem. I almost feel like it’s not even worth using anymore.

    Also, when I’m deleting poems, there is a LOT of lag. Additionally, as I said before I have come back to this app after using it a very long while ago, and I’m using the same account. But what’s really odd is that I can’t change my bio, also knows as the “About me” section. I can edit it but there is no way to recede my keyboard and find a button to save it, and if I just click back out, it’s still my bio from before.

  • No way to delete your account

    The app and the website are not so full of bugs it’s painful to use.

    Worse still, there is no way to delete your account and information stored by the company (which I’m pretty sure is illegal) I have sent many emails requesting my data is deleted and the have ignore all of them.
  • Could Have Been Something Great

    This app is trash. I wanted to like it but they make it impossible. Load times are ridiculous at times in ways I’ve never experienced with an app before. You get random errors. Sometimes things double post. Sometimes things just straight up don’t work. Go elsewhere to read/write poetry. This is not it. It’s caused me nothing but frustration and grief. The overall review score is incredibly misleading. DO NOT GET THIS APP. Unless you’d like a headache, then by all means, download it.

  • Great idea, lots of issues

    Love this app, it's an amazing concept & a great way to share poetry online. However the app is extremely buggy, slow and bogged down by constant technical difficulties. Every time I open app I never know if it's going to load up or not, and if it does it will freeze if I go to write a new poem. If you try to publish a poem it will freeze and then later you'll notice it published 3 or 4 times ( however many times you clicked "done")
    I want to love this app so much. I want it to be great but it's extremely difficult to use with the constant bugs and freezes. I would just rather post my stuff on twitter or instagram at this rate. Please fix the bugs and issues with the app!

  • So much potential !

    Please make your app less glitchy !!
    This is such a great idea and could be so amazing but it is almost unusable due to the lag and faults in your software. Even the website is terrible in the same ways.
    You say it’s fixed with an update but I have the newest one and it’s just as bad.
    With a good update to bring this up to speed this could be my favourite app ! Please sort it out - I want to use it more

  • fix the fonts and allow tagging please

    I have to say that I love this app. It's been a great place to share and read other people's poetry. However, the app should be built in a way that allows the readers to change the fonts of the poems according to their preferences. The fonts are generally TOO SMALL for me. Also, please allow people to tag each other in the comment section. Private chats would be great also. Generally good app, but need more personal designs built into the app.

  • So Much Potential

    I’ve been using the app for around 3 months now. The idea of the app is great, don’t get me wrong. It’s basically an Instagram for poems. It has been extremely slow, it is exceedingly frustrating to use as it takes minutes to load even just my profile sometimes. There are so many bugs, it’s disappointing that the developers have put no effort into fixing any of them.
    There are many functionality problems, and it’s really just not optimized. The app has so much potential to be great, a really good platform for many to publish their work, but right now it’s really not there.
