Leave a Review POCKET COMICS
Great art and stories, horrible reading system
Webtoons has a better system, after a comic has been out for a while it’s a free read. People have to either wait to read the most recent chapters or buy the access and I think that is fair. I wouldn’t mind watching an ad every chapter. I don’t like that we only get 8 days to view something we already read and access is closed again. If we put out the time to wait patiently then we should get to continue to read the chapter! I am all for supporting artists but I don’t know how much the artists get paid out of this app. I would love if the app easily displayed that information somewhere. I would feel better about spending 10-20 dollars buying someone’s work. I don’t want the money all to go to Apple. I have one story I think I will buy and read before I delete the app.Show lesssunsh1ney
I Really Want To Like It
The stories on this app are amazing! I love them a lot and it’s a nice way to give some support to the authors. However, I hate the ticket system and the wait system.
If you want to read a story you have two options; spend coins (with real money) or spend a ticket that you get for free once a day. This was great and seemed fair to me. If you wanted to spend money you could but you could also read once a day as well. That’s what I though anyways.
What I’m stuck with now is waiting 5 to 3 days to read one chapter for some of my stories and the others I can’t read any other way but to spend coins. I’m not caught up on any story. I have 10 plus chapters to still read and the system is like this.
I don’t understand why you would give a free ticket to read a chapter every day and then not let the reader use it. I understand wanting to make this app profitable, but don’t make it seem like you can read for free when you really can’t.
They also had a read a chapter after watching an ad system too, but it hasn’t worked for me for a month.
I want to like this app. I have spent money to support the authors I like. However, I’m not going to spend $50 a month to read two stories. Either make reading for free a thing you can do reasonably or just be a pay to read app.Show lessBobbyBobbyBobby01
Why not offer a monthly subscription?
This app has a lot of amazing comics but it’s main flaw is the lack of options to read/support the comics without purchasing coins and paying 5 coins per chapter. They give you a singular ticket by logging in daily and allow you to read 2 or 3 chapters every 24 hours with advertisements. There are quite a few amazing comics so you can understand how paying 5 coins per chapter if you’d like to read more than 2 or 3 chapters a day really, really adds up.
Unlike other successful comic apps (WEBTOON for example) in which you can read a handful of chapters of a comic and then offer the option of payment to “catch up” with the latest 5-10 chapters, this app only lets you read a set amount a day without purchasing more coins.
I’d happily pay a monthly subscription price like I do for Toonmics comics as opposed to paying $20 to catch up on a really good comic that isn’t even complete. Why limit you user activity by only allowing them 2-3 advertised chapters for free when you could easily get a steady amount of income from users by charging a monthly fee.
Millions of people are employed to the pandemic. I don’t see why an app with such phenomenal reads would shoot themselves on the foot by putting such a large financial handicap on its supporters. I don’t mind paying for entertainment but considering $10 only gets about 20 chapters worth of reading is rather disappointing and ultimately very expensive.Show lessJazzy805Dee
Honest opinion of a binge reader
I really enjoy the numerous stories on the site, but I really dislike the 24 hour cool down between ads. The coin currency is acceptable, but I’m not entirely fond of it. The tickets are probably the most ideal thing for simple casual readers, but for binge readers... considering I am one, I find it hard to fully enjoy a story that I can’t just read in a few sittings, I get sucked in just to be pushed back out once I’m out of coins, tickets, or ads. I personally dislike how online purchases are integral to the design of the app to fully enjoy the stories, yet it’s still fully possible to use despite the purchases. I feel one ticket a day isn’t enough, maybe two or three would be better appreciated. I do enjoy the app and plan on using it in the future... at least the purchases are fairly cheap.Show lessCort foss
It’s a good app but at the same time isn’t
This app has great, amazing even. Comics it’s just that most teens don’t have money to get coins. That’s why I give it a 1 star. I just started today and I got 20 coins and 1 ticket but the comic I was reading need 5 coins to unlock so 20 - 5= 15, next episode 5 coins to unlock 15 - 5= 10, next episode 5 coins to unlock 10 - 5= 5, and the last I got to read of said comic 5 coins to unlock 5 - 5= 0, I only got to read 4 episodes, 5 if u include the only ticket I got! The prices are unreasonable and dumb!!! WEBCOMIC GIVES UP SO MANY COINS A DAY AND THIS APP ONLY GOVES US A TICKET!!! A TICKET ONE TICKET EVERYDAY TF!!! WHAT KIND OF JOKE IS THIS??? ETHER GIVE US MORE TICKETS A DAY OR LOWER UR PRICES BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE CANT GET MONEY TO PAY FOR UR 10 COINS!!!! I HAVE SAID ALL THE PROBLEMS WITH THIS APP!!! I hope u can reflect on the problems also the fact that me a 14 year old can find all the things wrong with this app is sickening! Good day!Show lessCeo.anime0
Kinda Disappointing..
Don’t get me wrong, the app is pretty good but it still has its flaws, the fact that you have to wait 24 hours to read another episode is kind of outrages, and the fact then when I got invested into 2 stories, after awhile, it wouldn’t let me read anymore for free, I would have ended up having to buy coins to read it and I’m not in the situation to do so which was a major let down, it’s a really big turn off while reading, especially because of the potential the app holds, I recommend being a little more lenient towards readers who can’t always buy coins, It really does help aid in an app’s success, cutting off and taking away the 24 hour updates is further let selfish and inconsiderate.Show lesskittylover_5
It’s sorta a good app I would recommend tho

Overpriced Chapters & Long Wait Time
The vast majority of chapters are locked behind a paywall and it takes 3 weeks to a few months for chapters to become free. I have to wait 58 days for the last chapter of an ongoing 23 chapter series to become free... Even if they are free you have to watch 2min ads... but you can only do this every 24 hours... Horrible app, you lose interest in comics very fast because it takes months before you can actively read a series without sinking money into it...
The structure of this app revolves around purchasing coins to read comics, if you are familiar with Webtoons, you’re not a stranger to potentially buying coins or waiting a couple weeks for chapters to become free to read, but this app goes above and beyond of being entirely useless!
It’s a good app if you like to spend an excessive amount of money...Show lessElite CaesarTG
has potential
the comics are actually really good and the art is amazing too! i actually prefer these comics over the comics on webtoon. But the app itself isn’t all that. u have to wait a whole 24 hours just to watch an ad to read a chapter. which i don’t like. and even then there’s still chapters where u have to pay? like i understand there’s chapters where u can read coins but the least u can do is let us watch as many ads as we want. and i feel like that way i’d feel better about paying for coins. but anyways the app is pretty complicated and i think a comment section under each chapter would be nice! but overall the concept and comics are good and in the end that’s what matters i just think ur coin or where we actually read the comics system needs some help. but the app deserves a 3 the comics deserve a 5 so i’ll meet in the middle.Show lessjayweezygarza51
Love it just one suggestion
So I love this app, it’s really nice that you get 20 coins when you first login l and it’s also great that you can get free episodes from waiting for a time bar to fill up completely. But I think that would really add to this is if you added a comment section, when I read these comics I think there so cool and would love to put it out there to let the creators know that there doing a good job and to keep on going,I also love reading feed back from other people and I’m sure the creators of these comics would love reading it too. So please creat a comment section because I would love to be able to comment and see other people’s comments.Show lessmy life is over😑
